Yet again having trouble ordering supplies.

I was on EzReorder and in August didn't get supplies when I expected to.

Called and couldn't get through, finally got supplies about a month after I was supposed to.

I actually think December was fairly smooth but now we have another mess up, can't get the website to take my credit card which is annoying because they never charge the card, you have to go somewhere else to pay.

Could get anyone to answer and then finally there aren't anyone to take orders.

They claim they are in the process of hiring but geez how long does that take, there are smart people all over the country who can't get jobs. 

Argh!

The UPS gets my insulin to the house at 6:45 when Medco paid for it to be deliver by 3:00 – oh that is only for business addresses.

It was cold at least.

Apparently the problem only affects users who attempted to make changes to their time and/or date settings on that exact fateful day.  Weird. Per Animas

Weird but date/time programming is HARD stuff.  Believe me, I spent a lot of time with that in the 80's.

Been having foot pain which has been making my life less than joyful and was hoping to make it to Monday to deal with with but just can't any more.

First time here and seems good, fixing me up with drugs. We both agree not bone issue but tendons.

Also getting fixed up with Mobic.

Blood sugar is definitely lower and smoother on My Fit Foods. 

Working out pretty good.  So far, the food is much easier to eat than our old service.  Rich isn’t objecting to things, which is also good.

Biggest problem today is that I waited too long to eat and ended up eating too much, and something that wasn’t My Fit Foods.

We have been using Diet Gourmet for years.  Liked them.  However, they have been bought out and the new pick up hours don’t work for us.

How they did that was pretty weird, they sent out an email about 10:00 am telling us the pickup place had changed.  My husband took it to mean that the pickup had changed that day, which didn’t make sense to us – what about the people who already tried  to pick up?

The new people were rude to him and since I have been driving by My Fit Foods, I didn’t to scope them out.  Also picked up food from them on Thursday.

So far, I really like their business model, they are very low pressure.

I met with their nutritionist today, and had her set up our menus.

So far their food has been good, and I actually that my blood sugar may be smoother.

Their hours are great!  7 days a week and open from 7:00 am during the week and as late at 9:00 pm most evenings.  It’s on the way home from school for me, and about a mile out of Rich’s way.

My blog anniversary is coming up.  9 years.

In my never ending quest in figuring out how to get things right, I bought a Fitbit.  I’ve worn pedometers before, but they were bulky.  Once you put the world’s largest Windows phone and an insulin pump, a pedometer seems overkill.

Not the fitbit though, it’s pretty small, and I can clip it on my bra and doesn’t seem “in the way”.  

The website works well, and it also works well with MyFitnessPal.  If it had a better interface with the Windows phone, I would switch to Fitbit for all my logging, but the two sites work well.  I’m also have things linked with Endomoto but haven’t tried it.

Might try Endomoto today if I can’t find a good parking space.

FYI, I’m trying a new knee doctor on Monday.

Love that description . They published an article I wrote.

Found out two interesting things:

The weight loss surgery outfit he recommended and I used went out of business.

He cancelled all the prescriptions he wrote for me and they can’t be refilled.

Nice.
