...Ok I'm intrigued


Quick recap, I am diabetic. I found out about a month ago and have been struggling to maintain a reasonable blood sugar level since. Not so easy.

My blood is like a teen sneaking out of the house in the middle of the night to party with sugar. After dinner my levels are hovering around 180 which is high, but pretty good considering I was like 380 before I started the meds, but then I wake up and take my levels again and Im up between 220 and 260. What the fuck?!? Unless the wife is sneaking me cookies when I'm asleep, this is out of hand. So I need to cut weight.

Im up to 275lbs. not my largest by any means, and honestly if not for the diabetes I wouldn't bother loosing any. The fact is that I'm comfortable, and thanks to 8 months of going to the gym I feel better now physically then I have in the last decade. Well I FELT better, then this whole diabetes thing hit me like a ton of bricks.

So fuck it, Today I am starting to loose weight, I have been trying to do so for a month now to no avail, So today I signed up for weight watchers.

Weight Watchers goes by a simple point system and portion control. So as long as I keep my points straight and learn to deal with the ridiculousness of life without pasta I should be cool 200lbs. here I come.
