Today is a Brand New Day!

How exciting! My very first post. I thought long and hard about what to say but I think that just digging in is the best option. I am a diabetic with MANY diabetic based problems.  I find that keeping my sugar values in check is harder than it sounds. Yes, I am an adult and I do understand that adult decisions come with adult ramifications. (Thank you dad.)  I do understand that a piece of cake can potentially kill me.  However, lots of things come in to play when you are going about living life.  I am truly a chunky chick by nature.  I am bored today...yup, I want a snack.  I am sad today...yup, I want a snack.  I am busy today...nope, I didn't pay attention to what I was eating.  All in all I am terrible about watching what I eat and when.  I am forever coming up with new and sometimes crazy ideas on how to manage my disease.  I decided that I needed a way to find everyday encouragement to be much better behaved.  I will be posting EVERYTHING!  I promise not to hide a thing.  A true example is that right this minute my sugar is 333 and my weight is 261.  Neither number is one that ANY girl would want to make public.  I am hoping that going forward I will have great things to share with you about progress, progress, progress.  I will share with you recipes that I have found that are helping me and exercises that I can do even with my limited abilities.
