YAAAAAAAY! where is the "happy for meeee" emoticon when I need it?
Did my fasting glucose and my HbA1c (which picks up on glucose levels over the last few months) and they're both absolutely a-ok fine-diddly-fine!
Super duper relieved AND have been referred to a dietician to help me with my fructose malasorption and eating low GI/preventative stuff. My docs says I might be erring towards the side of impaired glucose tolerance, but all that I have to do for that is eat low GI, lose weight & exercise - sound familiar!??!? So i'm soooo relieved and we've both (me & doc) agreed that I'll just monitor my BSL's myself just occasionally to keep an eye on them (given upcoming plans to TTC). AND she thought I'd done super well to lose 6kg
Oh and lol, it was MY darn dog that barked, not even someone else's
I would love to eat beforehand and not eat anything but I am paying $65 for the flipping meal so I want to get something for my money Maybe if I eat loads of point-free vegies that day and the day after it will be ok. Plus if I only eat half of each course. I hate set menu thing where you don't get a choice and being vegetarian usually means no choice at all
Nai - Totally understand about wanting to get our moneys worth. Also about being vegetarian - and it is usually cheese topped with more cheese. lol. Just think of it as a metabolism boosting day
Well I will be weighing tomorrow cos of my trip. Think I may have lost a little but don't really know. Hopefully have lost 0.5kg. Cant see that I could have lost more than that.
Well I weighed myself and I lost 0.75kg - yay! So am now down 3.25kg.
I was lucky that the dinner for the Hens Night wasn't as bad as I had expected. I got a gnocchi with a tomato based sauce which was much better than the cheese on cheese that I was anticipating for the vegetarian option. I'm finally getting over my cold so this week I'm back into it!!
I'm to afraid to get on the scale, because I've been bad ... that sucks because I have not even been dieting for so long. It's just darn hard to diet when you have discoverd food and started cooking and baking
I'm watching my portions and making good choices though .... jelly sweets instead of chocolate, sorbet instead of ice-cream, home-baked whole-wheat yoghurt bread instead of store bought white. That last one is actually worse than white bread. It's so darn delis, that you can't stop. It does not even need butter or jam
So not going to change my ticker *bad* or get on the scale. Just going to try again from today.
I went shopping with DH for clothes for him on Sunday and were overwelmed by the fashion in the stores this season, because it's all so wearable ... now if only I was that size 36 I'm longing to be .....
