A diary of what works for me

I’m slowly getting back on track after a week or so off the wagon. I’ve got groceries in the house (well, condo, really) and so have no excuse not to cook. Well, I can always find a reason not to cook – mailing I’m so bad at it. But, I’ve got some good news. I’m [...]

My weight this morning – after breakfast, forgot to do it earlier – is 305 so I’m back to where I was a few weeks ago. I was kind of afraid to get on the scale since I have been off the wagon quite a bit. But, that will change. Going to have to do [...]

I weighed myself this morning and I was at 305. Yipee. The pointer on the scale is moving. And there’s even more good news, my glucose reading was 111 this morning when I woke up and it was 122 yesterday morning. The bad part is that I’ve kind of fallen off the wagon with LC, [...]

Happy 8/8/08 Well, at least the scale moved this week but not much. 307# is what it looks like. I think I need to get a digital scale because I’m getting tired of the shaky pointer. The only good news about the weight loss is that at least the number changed. This has not been [...]
I’ve got to do something to get that pointer on the scale to get off of the 308 mark. I’m very frustrated right now. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Well, I sort of do. 1 – I need to drink my water. I got 7 8oz glasses in on Monday but haven’t gotten near [...]

It’s going to be short and not too sweet. My weight hasn’t changed and this has been a tough week with my blood glucose all over the place. Woke up with a really bad headache and my glucose reading was 96. Had some scrambled eggs along with a low-carb wrap and some cheddar cheese. My [...]

I just had to write a short update. I took my blood sugar reading this morning, fasting, and it was 104. Wow. I can’t believe that in two weeks of being on a Low Carb Way of Eating my glucose readings have gone from hovering near 300 to almost at 100. Can’t wait to see [...]

This weeks update: The good: My blood sugar this morning was 115 which is a huge improvement over where it was running about two weeks ago. I had a reading as high as almost 300. More good – I’m feeling better and am not as hungry as I have been in the past. I needed [...]

I forgot to weigh myself after I’d been at the doctor’s office, so this weight is from my home scale, which I think is pretty good. I’m at 310 as of this morning. That could be considered a loss of ten pounds, but I think I’ll wait on the actual weight loss until next week [...]

Monday I didn’t eat too much during the day – mostly crackers and cottage cheese. I just didn’t feel that well. Had a cheeseburger and fries for dinner. Finished off a large bag of potato chips I’d had left over from the weekend. Tuesday I had some cottage cheese for breakfast, a wrap for lunch, [...]
