After several years now of regaining the weight and basically eating anything and everything I’m still baffled that once I reached my historically consistent max weight I never go any higher. That’s a good thing, I know. I’ve seen the stories of people weighing 400 or 600 pounds and wonder ‘how’ when it feels like I eat constantly and when doing so the foods are not healthy.
My thoughts go back to the nutritionist’s comments a couple of years ago. She said some people just have the genetic makeup to be overweight and that we can be thin but it would always be a struggle, and most likely, a futile struggle, as the body will fight to regain the weight.
But now I find myself with several risk factors including high cholesterol and very high diabetes. I find it ironic that although I was prescribed Metformin several years ago none of the medical professionals ever said ‘ you are diabetic’. I also realize how moronic it sounds for me to voice that outloud. I should have made the connection. If I had, I’d likely have been more cautious on sugar and carbs. Maybe, maybe not.
Anyway, I know that in the past, the only way I’ve kept an eye on my intake is to record it. I recognize that due to I’ll be thinking back on my day trying to recall it from memory and I fail. So I’m back to recording. Today.
Now, I am proud that I’ve managed (with the help of meds) to bring my daily blood sugar test down to half of what it was in October. I’ve been trying to watch the carbs and sugar. I like to think it’s been successful based on the numbers. But I know it still needs to be lower.
I am truly, honestly, totally not recording to lose weight. If it happens, great. If it doesn’t, well, okay too. My goal is to get my cholesterol down and manage my diabetes.
