Long time. I've been working on another project and have been so busy with that, that I haven't gotten to post here at all!
I put a site in my leg for the very first time tonight! If you haven't tried it, I have no complaints so far. I'm pretty much betting that I'll rip it out very very soon... but I'm hopeful.
I had an endo appt recently and it went much better than my last few visits with her. She was pleasant and I didn't feel like a failure or disappointment. I'm even considering weight watchers like she suggests EVERY appointment! Does anyone have experience with the online program?!
My A1C went down from 8 to 7.8 or was it 7.6... I think it was 7.6...7.8 was my guess before my appt. Anywho, the logs I showed her were HORRIBLE, but due to her illness my appt was bumped back two days, so I was able to correct the issues and go into the appt with some better numbers. She suggested I print my logs every two weeks in order to see these issues and be able to motivate myself to get back on track. I think that's exactly what I need.

About Me
- mel
- I am a T1 diabetic (or a person with type 1 diabetes).
One Reason to Love Bawston!
The "Old Hancock" building is topped by a weather beacon with red and blue lights, which use a code to present the local weather forecast, using a popular rhyme as a mnemonic.
Steady blue, clear view.
Flashing blue, clouds due.
Steady red, rain ahead.
Flashing red, snow instead.
Steady blue, clear view.
Flashing blue, clouds due.
Steady red, rain ahead.
Flashing red, snow instead.
During baseball season, flashing red means the Boston Red Sox game has been called off on account of weather.
In October of 2004, the beacon flashed red and blue to commemorate the Boston Red Sox World Series victory. This was the first time the color scheme changed since the beacon was lit in 1950. A new line was added to the poem accordingly:
Flashing Blue and Red, when The Curse of the Bambino is dead!
The beacon again flashed red and blue when the Red Sox won the 2007 World Series.

Congrats on a lower A1C :)
I'm doing WW right now and because I joined it monthly (they automatically deduct the payment each month from my credit card) I get free and full access to the tools on the site. I think it's great.
But I also suggest going to the meetings as well. I like what they have to say, and you don't have to speak if you don't want to. I don't know if you've done WW before, so I don't know if I'm telling you things you already know.
But I like the website a lot. My favorite feature is for recipes. If I have a recipe, I can plug in the ingredients and it gives me the point value per serving.
Great A1C - way to go!

Congratulations on reducing your A1C. Trust me, I know how hard this is.
