Not A Happy Camper Today....

A week ago today I went into my doctors to find out why my hair was thinning out. He said I was probably overly stressed.... But, thought we should draw some blood to just see. Well, I called yesterday to see what my lab was.... Yeah not a good result.... My glucose was high... Everything else just fine... I was hoping it was just the stress that has been going on through the year. But, nope... So, I am close to being a diabetic... Which I am truly not happy about. So, they are putting me on a very HIGH strict diet... I meet with the dietitian on Thursday... So, wish me all the luck I can get... I am not where I have to take any medication for it or insulin... I have to loose 7 pounds in three months... So, if any of you want to volunteer to go walking with me or something please do and let me know. So, that is the starting of my awful week.

Don't know if you knew that my dad was diagnosed with diabeties last year. He lost weight so fast by not drinking coke anymore, no more breads, and he followed the no sugar diet perfectly. He got right onto track and was ok. Just really watch your carbs from now on. I am really sorry about that. That sucks.

Sorry to hear about the news. I think losing weight is all about watching what you eat and how much and of course, exercise. It is easier said than done, but you can do it! Maybe get Dave to do it with you.

Oh Liz,

This isn't fun news at all. You can do it though. 7lbs in 3 months? You can totally do it!

That's not good news at all, I wish you luck with everything.

I'm sorry Liz! Crappy news. I would definitly volunteer to go walking or whatever with you, other than I live so far away. Let me know if there's something I can do. I'll be thinking about you.

Liz! This is not good! Yikes! I know that you will loose the weight. It just sucks that you have to be careful with what you eat. I am so sorry! Did the dr. say if your hair would thicken up again?

Liz,
Come walking with me any time you want. I try to go every day. It has been hot lately though. I go swimming almost every day too. Just an invite any time you feel like it.
