194.4 lbs

Odd weight loss continues. I think it must be "the burn". It appears weight loss really is possible if you control your portion sizes and eat sensibly. My lunch yesterday was NOT a controlled portion size (Mongolian bbq, 2 large servings), however I stuck to the diet... I had no noodles, just meat and vegetables. Of the vegetables I did not choose vegetables that are not allowed on the diet. I expected to hold steady. As you see I lost again. Wonderfull!

I checked my blood sugar yesterday to make sure something funny wasn't going on. Blood sugar levels are in the expected ranges for me. (I reached 100 after yesterdays large lunch). I will test blood sugar levels with my next carb meal and see how that goes. I'll try to remember to check my fasting BS tomorrow as well. The ultimate goal of all this is, of course, to ensure a long, enjoyable and healthy life by escaping the effects of diabetes, and enabling myself to do the fun things in life that require a healthy body. I wish to be around my family for many many years to come. I wish the same for all who read this. I hope my blog is seen as a source of encouragement for many. Good luck!
