Day 3 of New Med

 Started the new med on Saturday.  It said to take before breakfast, so basically I get up, do my morning 'ablutions' then go downstairs and take it.  Doesn't have to be taken with food, so it works.  

I also started drinking more water and juice.  I had a coke on Friday, and it was too sweet.  

Trying to limit my gratuitous carbs.  Like cookies and such.  Really hard, but I think I have a downward trend on the scale.   Still within my +/- 5 though.  We'll see.

That's what I have for you today.  

Hope you have a glorious day. 

New med

 February 20, 2021

Just started a new to me medication.  Literally this morning for first dose.

Invokana.

I told Doctor J that I didn't really want an injectable since I have enough trouble with the finger stick of the glucose meter.  He understood.  I am really good about taking my pills.  But... really BAD at the glucose test.  If my sugar control depended on an injection, that would be a bad thing.  

Blood sugar this morning was 166mg/dL.

I'll do more testing this week, to see what it does.  

YAY!
I already have to pee.  (side effect, sorta, of the medication)

feeling down

 i haven't left the house for several days.

way too cold. (double digit below zero sort of cold)

wanted to go to the gym, couldn't convince myself it was worth it.

my sugars are really bad.  (232 mg/dL last check)

i'm kinda depressed about it.

wonder if it's even worth dealing with.

so tired of taking pills every day.

don't even want to do my physical therapy exercises, even though those do help my back.

might have a touch of s.a.d. 

my diet is terrible, and it's all my own stupid fault.

i know how to eat healthy.  but i don't.

Push ups (part deux)

 FIVE!!!

then finished off with 15 modified.  

:D
My goal of 20 pushups (unmodified) is getting much closer.  I do a few more every day.  

Push ups

 I have done THREE consecutive UNMODIFIED pushups!!!!

:D
Much joy!!

That's it for now.
