Good point, Daisy. That’s why I’m incorporating both in my new health plan.

I always feel that to stay fit we need to maintain our diet first along with regular workout.

Hi Tim,

Nope, it’s not boiled chicken by any means, as I cooked it all in the oven. I start with this because I could buy a 10 pound bag, cook everything at once, and be done with it. I could mix things up, but that’s a heck of a lot more cooking. I will say this; it’s already working on the one issue, and by Friday I’ll know if it’s working on the other. And that’s the most important thing of all.

Good luck Mitch. I’ve always wondered about the whole boiled chicken and veggies diet. It seems that’s the go-to diet for anyone trying to lose weight. There has got to be more meals out there besides chix and veggies that won’t be bad for you???

You can’t eat that forever…as you said, you’ll go crazy, and it will probably cause you to stray b/c you’re so frustrated.

Anyway, best of luck,
Tim

DeAnna, I think I’ll be mixing it up to some degree. This week is chicken; next week might be hamburger, and at some point I will be mixing salmon in there as well. I need to break it up in some fashion. Sticking with only chicken will drive me nuts.

I can certainly sympathize with you about struggling to control your glucose. I control mine rather well when I’m not pregnant, however, when I’m pregnant it becomes a bit more of a challenge. I will try to do this with you, except I gotta have some red meat every so often or the baby is NOT happy.

Have a drink of water for now to minimize it. The cravings will go, at least until the next one. Keep yourself busy, and remember it’s you that is in control. I know you can do it.

That’s my main worry, Sire, my eyesight. But I also want to start feeling a little better. But man, the cravings are already biting at me.

I know my dad watches what he eats and would stray if it wasn’t for mum keeping an eye on him. if he knows that he is going out and will probably eat more than he should he will up his insulin to compensate. Before he goes to bed he does a test and if it’t low he will have a little snack and if it’s high a little shot. He seems to be doing alright.

Too bad he didn’t start this earlier as his diabetes pretty well stuffed up his eyesight.

You haven’t asked, Sire, but I’ve written about it often enough. I’m on insulin, but I’m not considered insulin dependent. If I could gain control of my glucose, I could potentially get off it, at least for awhile. I don’t think, however, that’s going to happen with me. Instead, I’m hoping that I can bring down how much I’m up to, as it’s increased as my numbers have gotten higher. I’m a twice a day injector.

Mitch, I’m not sure if I’ve asked you this before, but are you insulin dependent?

My father has been a diabetic ever since I can remember and he manages it by the number and sizes of doses of insulin. he measures his glucose level 3 times a day and injects himself accordingly.

Just good seeing you around again, Dennis. I hope all is going much better.
