This is my first attempt at a blog. I'm really using it to help me stay accountable to my new way of living. I want to finally lose the weight and get off as many meds as I can. I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm out there and I welcome any comments for support AND for accountability. I really want to finally conquer this and ultimately be healthy and hopefully be a role model to other diabetics who are struggling. But really, I just want to live, you know? Thanks for your support!!

Hi Sharona, You and I seem to have the same problem.  I have discovered that I handel my stress by eating. BadBad. So I also need to lose weight. I have some Christmas candy in a cabinet. I will now go throw it out. No one in the family needs it. Glad you posted. Made me move on to what I need to do.

Hi Bar,
 
I'm glad that we can encourage and support each other. I definitely am an emotional eater....I'm also an eater that eats when I'm bored.
 
Anyway, I just realized that I didn't allow unregistered users of blogger.com to post comments. I've made that correction.
 
Feel free to continue to follow my progress. I'll be updating as frequently as I can.
 
Have a wonderful day!

Thanks for the welcome back everyone.
 
MaryB, I'm still on the Byetta...on the 10mcg right now. Endo was not really wanting me to go on the higher dose but I thought I needed it. Funny, she says she does not want my lows to go below 100. Anyway, I feel pretty good....I feel like there is hope for the future.
 
I'm trying to be good and I'm doing okay. I wasn't as strict today, but somedays you just need to mellow out and not feel like you're on a regimen all the time.

It's been a tough week. I am not satisfied with my weight loss. My diet has been so-so. I have been concentrating more on getting my activity level up first. Dieting has been kind of a let down in the past, so I'm focusing more on eating better overall instead of "dieting". I guess I am just not pleased with not losing weight faster...but in the long run, the slow weight loss is probably better anyway.
 
I'm hoping that this week will be better.
 
Come visit me at
 
 
I really need the accountability!!
Thanks!

Slow weight loss is defintly the best way to keep it off long term I would say Sharona! Don't be hard on yourself for any slip ups,,, just start each day new,,,, and on target.
 
I'm afraid I honestly may not have time to check out the blog daily,,,, but will try to encourage you here when you post about how you are doing,,,,, k? Only so much reading I can do,,,, and I guess this board is where I do the most at! Keep at it Honey,,, k?
