How's it all going? You haven't been on in a while, and I wondered if all was well ♥ Do you have any questions or comments?"
lotsofshots commented on Chris's blog post 'Been awhile'"Cute dog in your picture by the way and a great AIC. You could always join a gym like Lifetime Fitness and go in the workout classes that they have for free. About 80 other sweaty people doing the same thing you are doing at the same time can be…"
Alan commented on Chris's blog post 'Been awhile'"Wow. That is a record breaking drop in your A1c of over 50%. Dr Bernstein claims and many TuD Members (myself included) confirm that a low carb diet dramatically improves your cholesterol. Conversely a high-carb, low-fat diet worsens it. So you…"
Chris posted a blog postBeen awhile
Sorry it's been awhile but been busy. I had my check up last month and my A1C went from 11.4 to 5.5. Great news for me but the bad news is that my cholesterol is up. So needless to say my diet just got a little more bland. My numbers have stayed low enough to where i don't need to test as much but I STILL do test. Hope all of you are doing as well as I am. Feel as though I am stuck in a rutt in the exercise part though. I just have no real motivation to go to the gym or anyone willing to go…See More
Les commented on Chris's blog post 'Anniversary'"Congratulations on 10. your comments suggest that you and your family are managing well. May you have many, many more happy ones.,"
Teena commented on Chris's blog post 'Anniversary'"Congratulations to you and your wife for your 10th year wedding anniversary! Wish you all the best."
Chris posted a blog postAnniversary
Just celebrated 10 yrs of marriage with my wife yesterday. Thinking back the all the things that have changed Hair, Weight, Kids. the only thing that didn't come up was diabetes. One of the biggest changes in our lives has become so second nature with the testing and the diet that we have completely forgotten about it. BTW my sugars are 123 and below and even though the weight loss has slowed I feel great. Thank the lord for the blessings and trials he puts us through.See More
Teena commented on Chris's blog post 'Two month Check Up!!!'"Wonderful news Chris! What an accomplishment... congratulations and I wish you the best =)"

Chris posted a blog postTwo month Check Up!!!
Sorry that I haven't been on here a lot but you all know how busy things can get. Anyway, I had my two month check up after being Diagnosed and got some great results and I just wanted to share. Since see the docotr the first time i have lost 23 pounds and am continuing to lose. My blood pressure has dropped to 114/64 and the best news of all is that since being first diagnosed and having a BS of 274 or higher I have kept my sugars down to under 130 sometimes down to the high 70's. Doctor says…See More
Chris replied to I know I'm sweet, but COME ON!'s discussion 'Where do you begin?'"Reading the responses I guess there is really nothing left to say but "YOU ARE NEVER ALONE". If may seem hard at first but I suggest you look at the what I love about Diabetes post to find some really uplifting points. Yes you have it but…"

You could tell people in different zip codes to look into it...you donate from your zip code and then the map gets filled in.
Other than that, go on to the jdrf.org website or diabetes.org…"
