Two years of EXTREME backsliding. Weight is shot. Diet is shot. Exercise program is shot. Did I miss anything? Oh yeah, I saved a ton of money on control strips by not taking my numbers. Back to stage 1 of denial and laziness. Sigh. Time to get back on the wagon again. Hey Dan. good to see you're still here. And Margaret, the Georgia Southern Belle. Mike's back and needs encouragement. from Upstate NY where it's just too hot and muggy today - Mike Report Bad Post | IP | Print-Friendly | Edit Post | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top | Tree

As you might be able to see from my posts that everyone back slides. The important thing is to do what you have done and that is to get back on the wagon as you have. My recent backslide started with a change of doctor's and the difficulty of getting the new doctor up to where I was before. Before you knew it a year had passed then my F-I-L nearly passed. We got him healed and back on his feet and he seems much happier moved in with us and not all alone as he was before. We converted the garage into his apartment, so he has his privacy and if he needs us we are only a doorway away. He and my wife has been planting flowers like crazy this year. He used to do this with and for his wife, and my wife realizes that in some ways he is using her as a surrogate for her mother. Now his health is so good that he only takes one prescription med for his thyroid. I wished I could say that. He will be 86 next month. I was having problems with esophageal spasms and after my EGD and ballooning of my throat, I was able to get back on the shots and am now getting my numbers back to normal. Now that every obstacle has been overcome my numbers are returning to normal. ----------- Dan "I used to cry because I had no shoes until I met the man that had no feet" Report Bad Post | IP | Print-Friendly | Edit Post | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top | Tree

Don't feel bad about being human. Like you and Dan and many of the others I also have been doing a lousy job of taking care of myself. I did begin a new job a month ago as the Marketing Exec with The Inn & Lodge at Blue Ridge Summit. The web site is www.thelodgeatbrs.com A great place to represent. I go out to businesses and tell them about us. We have a world class resturant and meeting facilities along with hotel rooms. Almost a resort life. Again, welcome back.

RE: Returning Rerun2   Posted: Jun-18-08, 08:09 PM (EST) In response to: message #0 Post a Reply Reply With Quote Joined: Oct-25-06 Posts: 25 Warmed Up Hello Mike Actually, I am a native of New York. I have lived in Coastal Georgia longer than any of the four states I have lived in. Although I love the southern accent, I decided years ago that I would not pick it up but keep my Yankee heritage. tee-hee. O.K.,if I remember correctly, you used to bone us up on information through the laboratory, such as questions on artificial sweetners. I am so happy that you are back. I can't understand how we lost everyone, unless they had the same problem to log on the new site,such as I had. When we changed our service, I could not get on as Margaret so I had to make up a new name and I'm still upset about it. I tried many times and I gave up with Rerun2. It is so impersonal. So, congratulations on your return. I really didn't mind you calling me a Southern Belle. There was a true Georgia Gal that used to log in from Statesboro,Ga.

Glad you are getting back on the diabetic band wagon. Best of luck to you. Suzanna (PS ... That Southern belle, Margaret, was Lynn in Georgia. She and I still exchange Emails once in a while and actually met a few years ago when we were traveling in the same area as she was.)
