scifi fridays and habits are hard to break
Friday, January 11th 2008
It's Friday and that means it's Scifi Friday. In the past the dogs and I would cuddle up in the guest bedroom and watch tv with some munchies as we watch our favorite show we eagerly awaited all week long. As we ate our munchies, we would watch all the intergalatic escapades of our favorite friday night heroes. Well, that's all changed now much to my dogs displeasure. I have resisted the urge the sit down with a bowl of popcorn and settle for some homemade spice tea. This is going to take some g...Losing weight on an insulin pump
Thursday, January 10th 2008
Well, I knew I would eventually have this problem, but I think I need to get my pump rates adjusted. I stared the pump in June and since then lost 34 pounds. The past several weeks I have been having constant problems with low blood sugars and basal rates that are out of proportion to my boluses.

It's been a while since I have. My husband has done all the cooking since my back and shoulders went out on me five years ago. Tonight I made a low fat blacken Tilapia,noodles, and low fat green beans, with fresh fruit for desert.(In case anyone wants to know I made my own blackening seasoning out of Penzey's Northwoods seas...oh but a set back
Sunday, January 6th 2008
This new year has started out rough. I actually gained two pounds. Its the first weight gain I've had since starting my diet a year ago. It's my fault. Depression set in and granola was there along with that box of sugar free candy my brother sent me for Christmas. (Which by the way I was mad at him for sending me THREE boxes of) I gave away the rest but did not resist the one. Ok, I think I learned my lesson. My blood sugar soared again as I learned sugar free stuff doesn't help you bg levels n...Next »
