Health update

Okay guys. I went to the doctor today and got my report.

....

Here we go. Last month, my sugar was at 303 and today it was to 136. Great! Still have to take the pills, but keep doing what I've been doing. I also lost 13lbs! This made me excited! Just think that much every month and I'll be down under 200 by the time I see the doctor again in 3 months. I showed my doctor the spot on my leg that I forgot about last time. She says it's psoriasis, but that it sometimes happens with diabetics. I've had this spot for about a year if not more. She gave me a prescription cream that I'm going to fill tomorrow with my diabetes pills. It bites having to wait to get paid to pay for these as I still don't have any insurance. My boss is aware that I'm diabetic but still she won't put me on insurance. I guess I'm not worth it. Ah well. New job or book published this year - that's another one of my goals.

I went to church tonight - since I had the night off, which was odd. I asked they pray for me since all of this is hard and I'm struggling with not going back to the way I was. But with everyone's prayers and my not wanting to be on insulin, I know I can do it!

I hope all of you are doing well. Happy Easter! Eat some Cadbury Eggs for me!
