Apparently I'm NOT welcome to post about my weight anymore...

5.4 today.. I realize that weight is not a big issue for all Type 2s but for me and others I know it has been. My numbers are posted not to say that it explains Type 2 but because it's been a struggle for me to get closer to a normal weight for 50 years. For many of us, it is IS a big...

5.4 Up during the night with a toothache. so disrupted sleep. I'm going to have arrange a visit hopefully tomorrow as my dentist does not work Easter Monday (I have my last follow up routine eye appointment tomorrow too.)

Good morning all, 4.6 for me this morning.

As you probably know, I was a public children's librarian. After I returned to work after many years (when my son was older), I was an unlicenced supply (substitute) teacher (decided not to go back to teacher's college in my late 50s). i did mainly special education classes, kindergarten and...

Thank you @SaskiaKC . Both my sister and I consider ourselves very lucky, our parents are both wonderful people and we had wonderful parenting (not everyone is so lucky). They do sound similar, don't they? When we were little, my mom started back to work as a librarian two evenings and...

Good morning all, 4.4 for me. Regarding my dad - he's sharp as a tack still, no signs of Alzheimer's (although getting physically frail which he hates because he's always had a strong constitution). He's a lovely person but has always lacked tact and his social skills aren't the greatest...

My elderly dad made me smile today. He's never been very tactful but at almost 93, he's not going to develop it now. The conversation went like this: Dad "How much weight have you lost altogether?" Me "102 lbs Dad" Dad "I don't think you need to lose anymore. You're getting lines on your...

4.7 this morning. @Debandez it's hard isn't it? I have a lot of sympathy for Type 2s who've been diabetic for a long time and have multiple conditions and struggle with their numbers. I know I'm very fortunate that my numbers normalized quite quickly, my body responded very well to dietary...

5.2 today

Back from doctor. She's very pleased. Hba1c was 5.1 and all my levels are excellent. (She told me that she wished her cholestrol was as good as mine.) She's also pleased about the weight loss and loss of inches around my waist (12 1/2" so far.)

5.5 this morning. I'm off the doctor for my checkup and latest hba1c. Hugs to you as well. It's hard being a caregiver. Please take care of yourself. I know I could not do it full time anymore, I came very to close to burning out completely with my late son (severely disabled) before he...

No, my mom now lives in a long term care home (nursing home) here in Canada, she's turning 91 shortly. She was living with my Dad in a retirement home (their own apartment, meals provided) but he could not manage her any more. He's turning 93 himself, no signs of dementia but he is getting very...

5.3 this morning. Hugs for both the scan and your mom's Alzheimers. (My mom also has it.)

Hi all, 4.6 this morning I had a very small weight loss this week, only 0.2 lbs, total loss so far: 102.9 lbs (46.6 kg) or 7 stone 4.9 Yes :) I've seen pictures, my son-in-law has showed me. We joke about the "secret" Indian/Scots connection: bagpipes/mashak, both love sweets and lamb...

5.8 for me, a bit higher than usual for me but yesterday was stressful. My elderly mom (91 years in a couple of weeks) was complaining of tooth pain. We got a dentist to visit her yesterday and 2 teeth which are broken (she has very severe osteoporous) had abcessed so they had to come out. The...

Good morning everyone, 5.2 today.
