In November 2006, I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes. I worked really hard to bring down my blood sugar and a nice bonus was that I lost about 50 lbs after about 4 months. At that point, I endured a great deal of stress and life began to unravel. I gained back the weight and then some more. Also, my blood sugar began to rise to levels that were worrisome.
First of all, I blame myself for letting those things get the better of me. There is no one to blame. There are no fingers to point. It was me and me alone. I made bad choices for all of the wrong reasons.
This New Year's Eve, I decided that I needed to turn my life around for the better. Life is just too short. I miss the presence of someone close to me, but I know that person is watching over me. What would mean the most to that person is for me to take better care of myself.
So, here I go - going to journal my life changes and the results. Some days, the results will be fantastic, but other days, the results will suck. I am going to journal the good, the bad, and the ugly - mainly so that I can look back at what I have accomplished on this journey.
My blog may be boring or useless to some and that is okay. I am doing this for me.
This is my new day...
