Living with Diabetes

I have a big cold. My nostrils are fully stuffed and I am unable to breathe. I hate the inability to get a good nights sleep with continuous draining down the throat. Also do not like the body aches that accompany a cold like this. And not to mention the high sugar numbers. I am thinking about taking some Glyburide to help ride it out.

So this is the first Monday of the year and I come into office all sure that I have started off the year with my resolution to loose weight. And what do I want into, a temptation island. There is leftover goodies from all people. It is hard to walk around the office without running into someone or the other offering candies etc. So I stop to walk and sit in my room with the door closed. Then I printed something and walked over to the printer and BAM there are goodies next to the printer. Everyone seems to be wanting to get rid of their own temptations and what better way than to offer it to the rest of the world.... I am clinging on the last threads of internal strength.

Well 2009 is here. It is time to take a look at what happened last year and what is coming up for the New Year. Last year was interesting, I started on more medication and got a much better control on the A1C. But I also discovered eye damage starting the in the eyes and discovered that I need to add some more testosterone into my system. My muscular strength increased, but my eight went up too. I was happier but discovered that my whole disposition towards being negative is hampering everything in my life. I have simple desires from the coming year. First, I want to loose atleast 10 lbs in the year. I am starting the year at 184.6 lbs. I will need to be careful of what I eat and exercise more regularly. Second, I want to be happier. Now this falls into my desire to be more positive in life. Not sure what all I need to do, but I am making an effort. I wake up and tell myself - "I choose to be happy." A simple statement, but it lets me know that being happy is my choice., Nobo
