The wife had time off work to take me to see the diabetec doctor today he was running late and after waiting 40 minutes after my appointment was due on the intercom came my name and the roon number for me to go to, feeling very light headed and hobbling due to swollen ankles the wife got me into the doctors room,hello raymond take a seat I asked if it was ok for the wife to sit in on the consultation he said ok.
Well raymond the blood tests are back your blood sugar is 7 from 7.2 even better news your kidneys are stable I thought bring in the horse, but the best news of all is your current weight from 120kilos in January to 105 kilos today after he used a conversion table he said you have lost 2 stone 7 lbs in 9 months most of this banta went way above my head hope the wife was taking it all in I was very light headed a result of low blod pressure and I had a terrible headache.
He asked me about my medication so I gave him my last prescription all seems ok there he asked about my levels of insulin I was taking and said as your body looses weight you need ro reduce the insulin dosage so he said if you feel you need to reduce it do so,I was miles away to be honest sun drenched beach tall glass of pimms and a goddess massaging my back the wife must have tuned into my wavelenght and gave me a nudge in the back.
So here we are getting my diabetes under some control but needing to lye down as I really feel faint if I can keep up the good work I could loose another stone by Christmas it has been 15 years since I last say 15 stone on the weighing machine, I only have one question and that is where has all the weight gone did the flab fairy come in the night with a bucket and take it away if she did where is my reward when the tooth fairy comes she at least leaves you a pound coin.
My points for VICTOZA are 10 out of 10 it has done for me what 20 years of slimming clubs hypnotherapy acupunture and nagging couldn't do i can see my feet now better not look as I might keel over.
