One Week Shows Improvement

Today is Day 8 of my raw diet. I weighed myself and I have lost 10 pounds! That is amazing. I tested my blood sugars and the monitor read 105. That is amazing! I rarely am below 175 and am very often over 200, so that is a significant improvement. Good things are happening! I am enjoying the new way of eating, but I certainly have much to learn. Well, I have 100 days!

Great job, Mom! I am glad to hear that your blood sugar is being controlled better. Are you still taking any medications for that?

Wow, Mom!! That's great! I am so proud of you. You have done really well on sticking with this and I'm so happy to hear that your blood sugar is so low. Keep up the good work :)

Hey Ruth---So you're actually TRYING this new plan, eh??? WOWWW! How NICE! And how fantastic that it's helping your bloodsugar and your weight loss! I'm really PROUD of you!! I certainly don't have the stamina at all to do something like that 'Raw plan', but it's wonderful that it's working so well for YOU!! Lar says it's working really great for HER, too.

I had my very first daibetes test given to me this past Wednesday---just routine the doctor says, since I hadn't ever had one before. My bloodsugar came up at 90, so I guess I'm doing pretty good that way.

Kam told me she's been following what you write, so this morning she told me how to read your comments. Good luck to you, my dear sister....You're a marvelous example to ME--and to so very many others, too. Lots of Love to you, Karen
