Diabetes. . .It's a Daily Effort to Feel Healthy

Last May I was diagnosed with Diabetes and I had to go on insulin.  There were many things going on and I knew I had to take it serious.  I made eating changes, took my insulin faithfully and other medication and was amazed at how much better I felt.  I was excited about the changes that I was seeing in my life.  Then in December I got out of routine, my favorite holiday treats were all around and I pretty much went back to all of my old habits.  No insulin and , other medication and lots of sugars and you get a bad combination :).  

I am amazed at how much different I feel.  When you live the stressful, bad eating habits, not taking care of yourself life for so long and have a taste of feeling so much better, energy and even the emotional side of things it's amazing.  I feel like I can't get back to the healthy side fast enough.  

It's an awesome thing that we can get up each day and start new.  Make the changes that are necessary knowing that the other side is so much better.  So, today is definitely a Rainy Day & Monday get me down kindof day, but each day keeps getting better.  

My boys LOVE Studio C and this is one of their favorites as they have watched me go through Diabetes this last year.  It's fun to watch and get a good laugh as a family.
