It's been 5 wks since I found out that I'm diabetic. I have cut so much out of my diet. Splenda tea instead sweet tea, cut alot of sweets out, down to 1-2 carbonated beverages a week, (seriously, no joke!), and watching my carb intake. It's not really been as bad as I thought it would be. It really is about moderation. I can still have things with sugar, but not just as much.

I am also walking and climbing a few mountains, (will be doing the Incline again in a few weeks).
As of 5 wks, I have lost 11 lbs. my goal is to lose 18.8 more lbs. I'm at 168.8 and I want to get down to 150. (we have a digital scale, it's pretty kool)

Anyway, even if you are not a diabetic like me, take care of the body that God has given you. I really believe that the some health problems that we have are directly related to how we eat. There are tons of things that taste really great, but are really bad for the body. So take care of your body, and you'll feel so much better!
