Relentlessly Me

I have decided to do the things I think I cannot do.

I finally remembered to bring my glucose meter to work today. I checked my sugar a few hours after lunch and it was much lower than it is when I check it on the weekends. I have a feeling that walking to the printer, other people's cubicals, etc. really does add up. I must remember to get up between quarters or something on the weekends and move around so I don't go blind and lose my legs before I am 40.

Glucose meter says what?

It turns out the Dr. Pepper wasn't really the problem. I took my sugar reading yesterday about two hours after lunch and it was still way high. Yikes. I guess my body really doesn't like to create insulin. I have got to start taking better care of myself. I do not want to be on meds or have an insulin pump!

So I went for another walk on Sunday and ended up doing 20 minutes on the eliptical machine instead, as the dog would no cooperate. I forgot to bring my meter to work today so I don't know if it helped any. Of course, I had a giant serving of Pad Thai for lunch today, so I am not sure walking 324281329 miles would help after that.
