The chicken is very good....and eating low carb/low or no sugar has gotten by sugar down from 512 to between 90-95 which I've been maintaining for the last 2 weeks or so. The doctor did put me on 250 mg of Metformin a day, but that's a rather low dose compared to what some people I work with are taking...one is taking 2,000 mg's a day plus an insulin shot at night...but, this person can also be seen in the break room chowing down on a honey bun for breakfast. I am determined NOT to get to that point!

Wow, keep it up. My Blood Sugar is at about 185-235 when I don't exercise. When I do, it is at about 110-120.

We must work at the same place. I have several diabetic coworkers who make regular trips to the vending machine for Twinkies and Zingers. Not to mention all of the fast food they eat for lunch several times a week (they aren't getting Wendy's salads either). Then they complain about not being able to lose weight or their blood sugar being high. Gee...do you think that maybe related to the Zingers?
