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!

Back on track
back to taking the pills like I should pays off.
Fasting blood Sugar of 81. Almost too low.
Yesterday was an interesting day for me, I didn't go out to eat one single time the whole day, those of you that know me well know that I usually "dine out" for at least one meal each day.
I started with a left over Bean and Cheese Burrito with refried beans and rice from California burrito express. It was actually just as good 2 days later and reheated in the microwave. Then before work I have one of my classic Peanut butter and Jelly sandwiches (still a childhood favorite) There was also some cardio on the treadmill in there. and then after work I reheated the brown rice and lentils, and made some maple glazed carrots and some ground beef and onions that I cooked with tumeric and cumin, along with a salad with goat cheese and cranberries. Then I finished up some frozen yogurt that was in the freezer, and took my insulin. Sometimes just going through my freezer/ pantry combined with a little imagination can make some pretty good food. I do think that when I make meals like the one on the right, I am going to use the salad plate, rather then the dinner plate. I know someone that threw away all her large plates and ended up losing several pounds. That way when you see the plate it looks much fuller.
