Damage from high sugar levels?

I think discussing my problems may be helping a bit. I've had a good day so far.

I did my weekly shopping this morning and didn't have any urges to buy junk food.

I managed 2 walks with my dog Max around the flooded gravel pit near where I live and felt ok after.

The highlight of the day is I've just finished mowing the grass for the first time since my heart attack last October. I couldn't get my ride on mower to start due to a flat battery, so had to use the walk along mower instead. A bit more exhausting, but I managed to get it done in one go. Very proud of myself.

All I need now is about 364 more good days and I might begin to believe I'm really on the mend.

Thanks for all the encouragement guys, it's really appreciated.

That’s the spirit! **** sugar anyway. Have some bacon instead.

Here’s wishing you a long and happy life, and even if you only have twenty minutes left, it’s better to spend it happy and healthy rather than miserable and deteriorating.

Good luck and keep on posting. Live long and prosper.

Now that is some good logic if I ever saw it.

@Inchindown You're doing so well and it's best to just make those swaps and keep on going, take it one day at a time and flourish, not about surviving but about living.
 
3 days without a binge. Although I had a very strong urge to binge this morning. Not sure how, but I managed to resist.

My blood sugars levels are dropping day by day so I'm hoping this will continue until I get back into the normal range.
 
Your doing so well. Just keep on doing what your doing one day at a time and before you know it your blood sugars will be perfect. You could try putting a large A4 sheet of paper on your fridge which reads something like "binging = high blood sugars and makes me feel bad" and when you get the urge read it. Anyway, keep up the good work and I wish you the best of luck.
