It has been a while since I posted about my diabetes. It took about 3 months to get things under control. I have a visit with Anna in a week or so.  I went back to eating sugar. I could not tell much difference. I am still trying to be careful what I eat. Calorie counting is the best way to go. Staying at 2000 a day is sometimes a chore. I have started eating oatmeal, took a while to acquire the taste/texture but now I really love it and look for different flavors, etc.  This has helped me get breakfast in early in the day. The best way to change a lifestyle is with baby steps. The most helpful thing I have done for myself is to accept the challenges and look ahead. Face reality with a smile on my face.
