After a trip to the doctors to have my blood drawn and check my electrolytes, I am back on medications for diabetes type II, and a lasix pill (water pill) so my legs are no longer swelling---some of my weight was me holding water in my system so probably haven't really lost any more weight just gotten rid of the water that was upping the reading on the scale.
But I will TOTALLY ADHERE TO MY DIET at this point so that I can get rid of the diabetes medicine by dropping the weight.
Type two diabetes is almost entirely dependent on being FAT and as an Advanced Practice Nurse and diabetic teacher I know that and have just let the weight creep up then lose some and then let it creep up again. I KNOW BETTER AND I HAVE TO DO BETTER especially at age 73. I am going to drop another 49 pounds and keep on a reasonable diet not too fast, not too slow.
Am staying locked down on my farm, not going out, on line church and phone calls to friends None of our living history demonstrations with my friends. This was my team of Scotish Highland oxen at Old WAshington State park in Arkansas
