It's been a while since I have had to worry about high blood sugars. Since I took the two cortisone shot this week, my sugars have been a little higher than usual. One shot didn't disturb my system too bad, but two shots have. I also have experienced that, I can't get enough food in me to feel full sensation this week ans feeling hungry two hours after I ate. These are all related to the cortisone and insulin resistance that comes when my blood sugar gets off. At first I thought I was just hungry, until I got to thinking about how much food I had eaten. Then it realized to me that I should in no way be hungry two hours after what I had for dinner and something must be wrong with my body or mind. I checked my blood sugar and sure enough it was way higher than it was suppose to and then it hit me. Donk...I had just been hit up with two cortisone shots and been eating way too much sugar and carbs. That alone was enough to screw up my system and to set me off into some heavy insulin resistance patterns. I immediately went and got some warm water and drank it and have since been watching what I eat. If you are a diabetic you probably have experienced this weird sensation and know what I'm talking about. Marjorie knows what sugar does to her and she is not a diabetic but goes through the same withdrawals when she gets off sugar. People who have sugar problems physically can feel when their body gets too much sugar. For me, I get hungry and can never feel satisfied. Two hours latter I am hungry and thirsty again. My stomach even hurts with hunger pains. I feel weak, sweaty, and tired all the time. Then comes the weight gain because if you don't look out you are eating all the time to get the feeling to go away when to get the feeling to go away you have to STOP eating. That's the exact opposite. You have to cut down on the sugar and the wrong carbs when you are sugar sensitive or insulin resistant. I guess tonight's blog is this, learn body's warning signs about food. Often your body has little things that it will tell you to do to stop eating. When you are not feeling well, your body might say, go lay down, don't eat. In this process of losing weight, remember, part of this process is learning more about ourselves and how our body's work. Have a good evening and a great weekend. I'll be very busy and may not be able to get back on until after my next surgery. So, talk to you all next week after my next surgery. Hopefully, I won't be as sore after the last one as I have been with this one.
