October check in

Rack this palce!

Monthly check in....I'm still alive. Dropped 20 pounds since the diabetes diagnosis in mid July. I'm on four meds and hope to get that reduced when I go back to the doctor 10/22. Been working out like a fiend and watching what I eat. Pretty soon I should be at my college weight of 170. I'm 195 now.

No booze, pizza, sweets etc sucks but I got to keep my sugars in check. When I first tested myself, my blood sugar was a whopping 395. This AM before breakfast it was 88. That low number is a result of meds, exercise and watching my diet. I'm usually in the 90-120 range which is normal for diabetics.

Fukk this disease, I will kick its a$$! I don't want to end up like my G-Father, who lost a leg to this and died young. No fukken way.

Good to hear about your progress. Diabetes can go fuck itself. Rack Bill-DC for fighting his ass off and posting at the greatest message board in internet history
