The long weekend

2011-06-14T13:17:00.000-04:00

Went to NC for a wedding Friday night, got back Monday evening. It was a wedding, the food was not healthy for me. Shots were required. I'll just leave it at that.

Today I skipped breakfast and got a 24oz low carb monster. Lunch was another (and the last) can o soup.

Snack

Yesterday started with a shake. 10 wings (with fries) for lunch, and a mini pizza for dinner. Not really a good eating day.

Dinner Last Night

2011-06-08T09:02:00.000-04:00

Chicken Kabobs with onions, peppers, and tomatoes. Black bean salsa 'salad'. If I remember to take a picture of lunch its pretty much the same, minus the veggies.

Morning/ breakfast

2011-06-08T07:13:00.001-04:00

196lbs 124 blood sugar.
1 cup water, 1.5 scoops whey, handfull of blueberries, tablespoon almond butter, ice. All in a blender makes just over 16 oz.

Had to stop at Hardees/Food Lion for the bathroom again. Is it the whey?

I was planning on eating this with my soup, but didn't. Now with another 127 test reading I feel a bit shaky again, so its snack time I guess.

Lunch

2011-06-07T12:33:00.001-04:00

14g carb 4g fiber per serving. 2 servings in the can.

Cup o tea

2011-06-07T10:53:00.001-04:00

Feeling shaky

2011-06-07T10:34:00.001-04:00

Definitey shaky, but two readings in the 120s. That doesn't make sense. Not sweating yet, but getting a headache.

Breakfast

2011-06-07T09:48:00.001-04:00

Coffee with cream and sweetener.
Sunflower seeds.
No other protein.

Now I can feel my stomach rumble.

Will this work?

I'm back

2011-06-06T14:39:00.002-04:00

And I'm going to start using this for my own selfish purposes now that I can make mobile posts. Its going to be a combination of a flash diet and texts about how I feel, so I can track my food and my lows and such in an easy way.

Diabetes and healthy eating

2009-11-18T11:29:00.002-05:00

I read this article the other day titled "Its American diabetes month". Its pretty harsh regarding the typical American diet nowadays, but the truth hurts.

She linked to this site, which lead me to this vegan diet how to guide. I found it interesting, especially since this is the sort of information I've been looking for. I'm not saying that I'm going vegan, and it isn't necessarily very technical, but I'm just glad to find other options right now.

They have a message board there too. I haven't really looked at that yet though.

A good series of articles on reversing diabetes.

Eating for diabetes reversal

I still get these emails from WebMD from time to time, and mostly they're not worth it. Every once in a while though there's something worth reading, and this is one of them I believe. It discusses the importance of diet in controlling diabetes, as well as what kinds of diets work.

More suppliments and foods

2009-05-08T15:23:00.002-04:00

I found a pretty good resource at the Diabetes Action Research and Education Foundation website. It was a pdf called "Managing Your Diabetes". What I was specifically interested in for this post was the section on "Beyond the Basics" which included vitamin/mineral supplimentation, plant pharmacology, and other natural ways to manage diabetes.

Vitamin/Mineral list:
Vitamin B-6
Biotin
Vitamin C
Chromium
Coenzyme Q (Co-Q-10)
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)
Vitamin E
Lipoic Acid
Magnesium
Niacin
Nitric Oxide
Vandium

Plant Pharmacology:
American Ginsing
Bay
Bitter Gourd
Cayenne
Cinnamon
Evening Primrose Oil
Fenugreek
Flax
Ginger
Gurmar
Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA)
Lagerstoemia speciosa
Nopal
Onions and Garlic

The link straight to the document itself is up above if you click on it's name. I don't know how much I can actually get away with copying anything straight out of there.

I haven't really tried any of these myself, except maybe the occasional cinnamon in my coffee, so I can't profess to the actual usefulness of each item. Either way, it gave me more things to look up and follow up on later.

Vinegar good for diabetes and losing a few lbs?

2009-03-18T22:41:00.002-04:00

I saw this video on webmd.
I was about the benefits that vinegar may have on blood glucose levels. Its short, about a minute and a half. Give it a look. It fits in well with my search for alternative means for controlling blood sugars. What also fits in well is what I've wanted to post for a week or two but just haven't gotten around to it. Maybe tomorrow?
