I feel better!

November 4, 2004 by Tracie

:mrgreen: :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

It’s true. I really do. I don’t know if it’s because my BG levels are down, or what.. but I am feeling so much better. I attribute a LOT of it to the fact that I sleep all night now without getting up to pee every 2 hours. :oops:

My FBS (fasting blood sugars) are still coming down too. Today’s was 140. That’s not perfect, by any means, but I had pizza for dinner last night so 140 after having pizza is ok. I need to remember to eat a snack before bed too and I forget most nights.

The thing is, I was so used to being thirsty and feeling tired and run down… that I just kept attributing it to the fact that I’m overweight. I guess I got used to feeling like crap all the time. Now that I actually feel GOOD, I can realllly recognize when my BG levels are higher than they should be. I like that. :)

Testing my BG levels on a regular basis is still a challenge. I just hate sticking myself. It hurts, it’s hard to get right amount of blood sometimes, and, my testing strips are ridiculously expensive! But, I’ve been doing better. :)

One day at a time…

    Great news Tracie! I’m glad you’re beginning to feel better and get a good night’s sleep.
