No way I was missing that. I may have needed to go just as much as my husband.

Just be just a tired day. The heat and humidity really wear me down.

Still winter here. I need to clean but would rather crawl back into bed. Landlords are coming to inspect the premises soon. I did a small clean of an area yesterday and my hernia was not happy. Time to put on some music and do it.

A week of diet and exercise, havent picked up the metformin up, and my fasting blood sugar has dropped from 170 to 153. And i think i dropped a couple of lbs.

My secret is - i watch Coronation Street while i exercise! I am a year behind, and i missed 5 years in between, dont know how i would pick those up, but this might carry me thru.

Hiya everyone,

Popping my head in if that's okay. So technically I'm not diabetic but I am insulin resistant and my doctor has me on Actos. My sugar hasn't been as good as usual lately. More later, just wanted to say hey.

I exercised yesterday!!! The best and humidity have really put a damper on it. But I had to bite the bullet yesterday because I had too much pain I also just started a new job. Only 10 hours a week but I kind of have to find a new schedule for my day to get everything done.

Ugh, i think the metformin makes me dizzy, as well as constipated. I am not having a good time! And everything tastes bland. I dont usually even use salt, so thats weird to me.

Im not happy. I was kind of on a roll, losing weight, feeling good, exercising, wah, wah, wah. I guess it takes a couple of weeks or so to get used to this metformin.

Congrats on the job Deejay. Sounds like this job will also be helping you get more movement in. Hope you are not too stresses about this new job.

Hope that the changes with metformin eventually settle down unaluna.
