Yep - I think we all go through a period of not caring. Its natural because this disease takes alot of focus and hard work. There are no short-cuts for that.

But what finally motivates each of us to get off our tail and make a change may be different. For me it was an A1c of over 11 and A-fib sessions that made me feel like I was going to die all the time. That just helped me face the real reasons for change...

My family and all the people who love me. I want to be around to spend time with them. Life is a gift and we are all gifts, given to those we love.

So... its ok to be honest - its more than ok, its allowed ;-)
And..its ok to be tired too.

Its not ok to throw away the precious gift of you ;-)

You made a first step - all journeys start that way and we are all on the same journey here. Welcome
