Hi all.
I was reading your posts and a lot of it describes me.
When I was diagnosed in January 2007, I immediately ate less, watched my carbs, and exercised (mostly walking.) I dropped 30 pounds and did so well, doctor took me off Metformin.
Well, fast forward to today.
I got lazy. I gained 15 pounds. My eating is out of control. I have a part time job in a pizza/sub shop and we can eat for free during work. Well, it's like a kid in a candy shop!! I overeat every time I'm there. It's like a Carb-Monster has taken over my body!!!
I feel sluggish. My PMS (heaven help the people around me) has gotten so bad and I want to yell and scream at everyone for 2 weeks out of the month! I really dislike myself right now.
The weather here in Pennsylvania has been cold and snowy and wintery for the last 6 months, or so it seems so I don't get out much.
Sorry if I sound like I'm whiny, but I am. I am so disappointed in myself. I am usually upbeat. I think the carbs have an effect on my mood. Is this possible?
I go for my 3 month bloodwork, fasting and a1C, in mid April.
Well, I'm done whining about myself.
Take care,
Barb
