Still down this morning but decided I really should get prepared for this work situation and that it might not really be as bad as I was thinking. Went to Old Navy of all places and found the perfect white polo shirts for a reasonable price, then walked over to Best Buy and had the sales staff demonstrate the Surface interface for me. I walked out feeling a lot more confident that I will be able to work the tablet tomorrow without much instruction.
Sort of stayed on my eating plan today although I was way off schedule and did eat my evening meal early. Had a tostado salad at Taco Time which with salsa. It actually is not that much off plan except for the tostado shell itself, which I did eat.
Packed my lunch for tomorrow so should stay on plan all day tomorrow until I get off work at least.
I was talking to Michael on Friday about the benefits of the plan and need to keep focused on these.
- fasting blood sugar in the morning is WAY down and in normal ranges.
- have reduced my insulin injections to 10 units from 15 because my blood sugar is so far down that I am experiencing hypoglycemia on occasion, which has never occurred in the past.
- swelling in my left foot is gone
- pain in my right heal is lessened, does not start up as soon when riding my bike.
- still down 6 pounds (slightly disappointed that I did not lose any weight last week)
- breathing seems clearer. When I eat off plan I do notice my sinuses feel more constricted. ??
- biggest is that my sugar craving is GONE. Not even tempted by the chocolate bars I bought at Trader Joe's even though they are on the plan.
Will try to make it through a whole week this time.
