It's been 5 months since my diagnosis.
Lots of ups and downs.
If a body needs a break from Metformin because it quits working, I think I might be there. Dawn is back with a vengeance - upper 120's the last four mornings.
Weight is stalled.
Although...I blame the week I took a statin drug. Everything stalled. I have no known heart issue, I had an EKG and an C-scan of my chest in March. Nothing was wrong.
Even all my lipid numbers are "normal" except the LDL and that's only 12 points in the "high-normal" range. But they want everybody on statins.
Everything stalled. Even after four days on the drug, but muscles hurt. I quit taking it.
That was a 1-1/2 weeks ago and I'm just now starting to drop weight again.
There was a sense of futility - if nothing is working, then why am I not enjoying the food I used to eat and enjoy? So...a couple more cheat meals a week. Having food in the house that I should not have.
But if I'm losing again, it's time to start really low-carbing again and see what I can do.
I'm going to rock this disease.
