Tachatna's Notizen, 29 Jan 18

Today was a much better day than yesterday. I'm feeling a lot better and that is a plus for sure.

I'm really struggling with making myself eat regularly. For the last year, I have only eaten one meal a day...dinner (not the best choice of time or habit). Eating regularly is really tough for me for some reason. It feels a lot more comfortable to not eat until I'm really hungry. That's how I fell into the habit. I'm struggling with the new regime a bit, but I'm determined.

I love the fact that I've been able to stop two of my four diabetic meds after a few days. I love the fact that a couple of pounds are gone. I just have to keep eating regularly until that becomes a new habit that replaces the old.

Fasting from time to time is supposed to be good for you so they say. I don't have that option because my blood sugar would go too low if I went totally without food. I stumbled on the right combination of insulin and food once a day that brought my A1C down to 6.0 and stuck with it. But, I don't want to be dependent on insulin in order to do that anymore. I have already seen the benefits of regular eating and won't go back, but it is hard for me!

Thank goodness I have a great hubby who introduced me by example to the benefits of losing weight. Thank goodness he introduced me to FS.

There was a saying in Weight Watchers years ago when I was in the program that said "keep doing what your doing and you will keep getting what you got"...or something to that effect. It's true. If I kept doing the once a day meals, I would continue to get the need for all the diabetes meds. Now, the goal is to keep doing what I'm doing to reach my goals.

I have to continue to remind myself of that!

So, here's to everyone that is "doing what they are doing"! You are a wonderful example of desire, change, persistence, support and success!
