Glucose 263, A1c 9.9, Cholestrol 720, Triglycerides 1992, "NO KIDDING"

That's were I was in late July, 2012. The signs in which my wife caught was constant urination at night and drinking lots of fluids. I lost 20 pounds in 1 month, My urine at times smell like a sweet smell ( the doctor defined it as apple odor). And when I was driving, I would't last at least 20 miles before I had to pull over again to urinate. But the icing on the cake was when my VISION went BLURR one early morning. I even couldn't read my gauges on the dash. That was a wake up call for me. I had a buddy that had a glucose test kit and it was 430 that day. Well I went to the Doctor the very next day after I fast and my results were as I posted for a title.
At my visit and lab results, the Doc said Im type 2 diebetic. And from now on I will be on med's and a strict diet , or else...........
Well after a strict diet and next to nothing sugar( except in naturual foods) and 3 months later.......
Glucose 105, A1c 6.2, Cholestrol 123, Triglycerides 73. I only take 2 meds now, and eat mostly poultry veggies. I do spoil myself here and there but go back to my Healthy diet. And also read all the labels on what I eat. I also pack a lunch daily. One of the problems WE have as truckers is not eating for a long time, that is one of the biggest mistake we can make and when we do eat its a bad choice and to much cause we were starving. I learned so much while in those 3 months.
I always carry almonds and walnuts/pecans and snack on those all day. No more FRIED FOODS or Processed. Its a big adjustment but easy to get use to. I had a goal to beat diabetes and I have. My next goal is to get away from all meds. I only take Natural Supplement and Fish Oil is Number 1 in my list. Good health to all.....

 

I do take Cinnanmon in tea and supplements, and avocados is a favorite of mine to.
