Good News!

The doc called today. I had my 3 month diabetes check up this week, and she called with the results of my blood work. I was expecting the worst, because that's what I do. Surprisingly, she had good news.

"Your numbers look good. Your glucose levels went down since last time. You've lost weight, and the swelling in your joints has gone away. If this keeps up, and you continue to improve, I'll reduce your medication at your next check up in six months."

You can't ask for much more than that, folks! This tells me that my hard work over the last three months has paid off. It wasn't all for nothing. And, it gives me inspiration to keep going. In six months, I want to be thinner. I won't put a number out there on poundage, but I want to be thinner.

So, with a renewed sense of self, I will continue to strive for a healthy body. I will stick to my diet and shoot for a reduction in meds.

Of course, that will be after I eat this sinful brownie tonight to celebrate! Shhhhhh........
