Making some changes
Hello DS Family, I thought that I would come and give some updates on how I am doing. The other day I had my doctor's appointment for my diabetes test; thank God it came back negative. I just need to take a vitamin D Supplement. Even though the diabetes test came back negative it really got me thinking. I have decided to totally give up white sugar and candy from my diet; I just don't need the empty calories and crap in my system. I have also decided to walk three times a week. I also feel really proud of myself because tonight at dinner I had a turkey and avocado flat bread sandwich with a glass of ice water with lemon; I didn't even binge or over eat either. I feel really happy right now.

That\'s great that you are so disciplined! It is so hard to give up sugar, just I will try to just eat less LOL!
Love & hugs,

Good job! I haven\'t eaten sugar in a few years (other than what\'s in the food we eat) I use Splenda on cereal & in my tea. BUT I had to get my cholesterol down so I took Niacin. Cholesterol level went waaay down but my Glucose level went up. Doc said there\'s sugar in Niacin........go figure......
Good for you. I wish I had the willpower to do that too. But I\'m a candy addict from way back.
woohoo, congrats. You are right normal grandulated sugar isn\'t needed, like most human made knockoffs. Cane isn\'t that bad for you but its definitely a moderation item :P I am glad to hear you aren\'t taking it to an extreme like eliminating things that are decent for you that do contain sugar :D Keep it up ;)
Good for you! That is great. You will be surprised what cutting out sugar does for you, even if you don\'t melt away you will just feel so much better. I am so proud of you!
So proud of you friend. U really are taking things seriously and it will do you so much good in the short term and long run . God bless
That\'s great. Keep up the good work!
That\'s excellent!! I really need to do something diet-wise and you\'ve given me some incentive.
That\'s great Tatty; I am glad I could be an inspiration to you.
