DAY 000: It Begins

Dawn of a new(ish) year on my health journey.

Hello all! First a mini-intro. Going by an alias so I won’t discourage my future self if I happen to leave Blogger…again (I realized I had one back in 2013, ten years ago, and never thought about joining again.) 

Ten years older and life has really been an interesting journey. I won’t go into too much personal details, but I’ve been married for going on six years this October and no children. Partially because of economics and partially due to my heath.

I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes about three years ago, and although I overcame it with the help of a new Warehouse Job, once I went into the office with a new promotion, I discovered recently my A1C levels went back up from a 6.6 to a 10.8. I was able to go from a A1C level 13 back in June 2020 to a 6.8 in October 2022, so I should be able to get back into normal range again. I did stop my insulin and taking meds, which I don’t advise to anyone without consulting your doctor. I do have a doctor appointment on Thursday, 05/25, and I’m sure she’s going to put me on one or the other, or most likely both. We’ll have to see when that time comes.

So follow me on my journey to get healthy again. I will be trying to treat this blog like a food/workout journal, with daily food/diet, weekly weigh ins, and hopefully monthly before/after pictures. We’ll see how this goes 🤞🏼
