Since 2008 I have had type 2 Diabetes. I was insulin dependent starting from September of 2009, however due to my lifestyle changes, my Doctor removed me from insulin after 10 months. This blog is about my diet and health, and my love for delicious food!

Day 11
I was surprised to have a blood sugar of 102 this morning, especially after those 2 doughnuts, however I was delighted.
Could it be that it might have been closer to a 10 hour fast, rather than an 8 hour? I haven't quite figured out how all of that works yet.
So after I blogged last night, I rented Food Inc on my ITunes. I was terribly disturbed at how they treated those chickens and cows and I decided that I was to become a strict vegetarian, which lasted me through most of the day today.
Upon getting up, I had a yogurt, then I had some Chicken breast in the fridge, and the latest Martha Stewart Everyday Food has a recipe for poaching, so I figured that I would poach them, and then never buy chicken again......
After following the directions, and still giving them a few extra "just in case" minutes, I cut into the chicken to find it way too pink for my liking. I almost just threw them out, but instead I put them back into the poaching liquid and cooked them until fully done.
However, with still being a little grossed out, Nicole, myself and Addison went to Toojays, where I had the veggie Pita platter (pictured)
At this point in the day I was still vegetarian.
a sliced granny smith apple before work.
a south beach diet cereal bar during work.
and then after work I gave up my vegetarianism, and made a quesadilla with chicken peppers and onions (pictured)
followed by a few cheese and crackers and 1 truffle while watching Desperate Housewives.
See you tomorrow............
