Diabetes Bootcamp Part 2 (Sarah) |
 |
 |
 |
|
8/31/10 When the new endo, Dr. A, told me that this is going to be like diabetes boot camp, she really wasn’t kidding. Last week (Thursday) I met with a consultant to go into more detail how my pump works and how I can get it to work for me, not work against me.

8/23/2010 I went to the new endo this past Friday seeking advise about my health and my future. Much to my surprise, there is a lot that I’m missing out on and a ton for me to learn.

8/15/2010 Growing up, I never dreamed of having children. I was told that I would not be able to have children due to my diabetes. Why would I dream of having children of my own when the doctors told me I would never be able to have them? That would have set me up for big disappointment later in life. So I focused on school so I could go to college on scholarships and have a fantastic career making a difference in the world.

8/8/10 People are always informing you if your shoe is untied or if you left the bathroom with *gasp* your fly down or a piece of toilet paper stuck to your shoe, but how often do you do something great and heroic for a fellow diabetic that you may or may not know?

Portion Control= The Best Control (Sarah) |
|
|
|
|
8/1/2010 Since we landed back in Detroit from South Carolina, The Boyfriend and I have been on a healthy habit kick. We’ve always been into health but we kicked it up a notch and as a result, my blood sugar control has been kicked up a notch as well. I know there are plenty of books about portion control and/or eating frequent small meals instead of 3 main big meals but I haven’t read them because what I was doing was working for me, or so I thought.

Blood Sugar Patterns and Weirdness (sarah) |
|
|
|
|
7/26/10 South Carolina was beautiful. The heat didn’t interfere with my pod sites as often a I has expected or planned for. One issue was when I was swimming. I didn’t acknowledge the time that I had spent in the pool and when it dawned on me that I was feeling funny, it was too late. The water had weakened the adhesive on the pod an it was currently bobbing in and out of my skin, blood sugar was a craptastic 353.
