Today I woke up with my sugars at 248. I feel kind of "wobbly" (if that word even makes sense). It would be shaky, but it is my balance, more than my hands. I have a bit of a runny nose and am thinking that I may have a bit of a cold. Time to pull out the Kleenex. :)
Also, when I woke up this morning my fingers were so swollen that I can't put on my ring. I know they will go down because they usually do. They have always been a bit swollen in the morning, but never so much that I couldn't put on my ring.
I am finding that when I get angry is when I have the least resistance to eating correctly. I eat when I have any heightened emotion, but anger seems to be bigger than the rest. I am angry a lot. I haven't figured out if I am angry in general, or if I am angry at a particular person. I am leaning towards the second because I get more angry in the evenings. But, I need to re-direct my anger from food to exercise. Years ago, this was the case. Whenever I got angry I would go get on the treadmill and listen to angry music. I don't have a treadmill and I have tried to steer away from angry music to try and soften my heart. If I could be inspired instead of angry all of the time, I think that would help....
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am excited to see my family! I am also looking forward to decorating for Christmas on Friday. I am going to be starting a new tradition with my daughter. We will decorate and then turn out the lights, turn on the Christmas lights and watch a Christmas movie. I was originally going to watch "Polar Express" because it is such a magical movie and would be a fun one, but I am thinking I need to have us watch a movie that is about the birth of Christ. I think it is probably more appropriate to watch something that is about the true meaning of Christmas. We can watch "Polar Express" on Saturday. :)
WOW! As I am typing this, I am STARVING! I don't wake up this hungry usually. I usually wake up and about 1/2 hour later, feel nauseous. So, I think I am going to end this and go eat breakfast.
Have a great day!
This is my outlet of dealing with my diabetes. I was born in 1973 and although I am sure I had it for years, I was diagnosed in 1998 with type 2 diabetes. I have never had control (other than the 9 months I was pregnant). I have neuropothy in my feet and can no longer feel them. I am also seeing that my body is breaking down faster and I feel like I am 80 some days. So, I am trying to change things out of fear and this is my blog about it.

It sounds simple but suppliments work really well for me when emotions are over the top. I take a B-100 complex plus calcium (600 mg), magnesium (400 mg), and fish oil. I got this formula from a natural medicine book for anxiety. I also have anger and sadness. I can tell a difference in my overall emotional health when I take this combination. I have more control and feel so much better. It's simple but it really works. You can get all these for a great price at Costco. Keep your chin up! You can do it!
Thanks! I am going to try this!
