Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[alaskaleftybass]

Good news. After two weeks my fasting blood sugar dropped to half what it was. Now 124 instead of 280. I'm reading sugar and carb content on everything we buy now. Gratefully wife is totally on board and studying recipes. God bless her she's the best.

It took something like this to find out shockingly EVERYTHING has either sugar or corn syrup in it. Wow what an eye opener. No wonder one out of three Americans is pre-diabetic.

 

[99Z3]

Yes.. it is like this.. the stuff that is good for you is very expensive, the stuff that is bad for you is cheap and full of sugars!

Beware of high frucose corn syrup! Its a sugary atomic bomb.

High trygycerides?

Mine dropped to barely above normal just by cutting hfsc. It murders your pancrease!

Sorry to hear type 2 is knocking at your door. Ive been on a low sugar diet for 15 years. Diet anf excercise can beat it.

It's so ironic isn't it. I could buy a huge bag of sugary cereal for the price of one box of wheat flakes. It's almost like they WANT you to become addicted to sugar.

Indeed, they do!

All you ever hear is "eat healthy!", but healthy living is so beyond the means of many!

Typing of what is and isn't good for you, enjoying the vices of beer and brats is a favorite past time ever of mine!

Amen brudda. Now that is past tense for me. I've seen too many very sick diabetics. Not worth the momentary pleasure for me.... but you enjoy on!

i have a beer a day most days.. others none at all..

 

[DerekW]

I don't during anymore...
But then again, I don't drink any less.

I'm already dead... I haven't laid down yet

Thirty years ago the doctor asked me what I done to get myself into the horrible condition I was in. I honestly replied "A life of wine, women, and song". He smirked, then thought for a moment and said "I do have some good news, ... you can still SING as much as you want."
This is pretty much the true story of my life.

Sometimes i feel i am being punished for all the Women i had when i was younger! Oh the things a sailor that plays bass can do!

Can't believe I'm doing this on a Sunday and the old woman is wanting attention on some made up day for the candy and flower business [grumble grumble]

Ahem. I haven't been here in awhile, but I thought I was #117? Have I been given the boot for lack of activity?

 

[99Z3]

Drink more Ensure and you will be more active!

I have a genetic clotting condition. It is going to kill me before any other ailment you can name. Maybe tomorrow, maybe many years from now, just not today. So, I keep in regular contact with my doctor to make sure the rat poison levels are proper. I don't abuse myself, but I don't necessarily over-constrain myself, either. The avatar says it all: kick back, loosen the tie, push back the hat, and enjoy a cold one.
