Today was an eye opener

Tweet

I wish I was on my desk top cause there's a song I wish I could put on here that pretty much says it all, it's from the little river band called "cool change" I was pretty much told today from the person I seen that I was a walking dead woman, YEAH sure did & from what she showed me on why she said that I couldn't think, I totally forgot about what meds to double up on till they got my new 1's in & of ALL things it's my heart meds & I have 2 of them. My heart arteries are like about 65-70 % clogged with colesterol fatty tissue & when she said that this has to be chqanged if I want to see 10 more yrs, which would put me at 75 yrs old that sucks. She sounded like if you don't get this changed you won't have to worry about living a long life cause from the results your a walking dead woman. SO guess what that means folks?? YEP I need to make a HUGE change in my life if I want to have ANY CHANCE at living another 10 yrs. Down to the NITTY GRITTY things of life to get my health back on track, that means live or die time, & I made my husband listen to it all too. So I have to get on a study eating diet, Execercise & do what needs to be done to change my health yes that INCLUDES smoking, I got to take this serious, I have to if I plan to have ANY life at all. So I told my hubby after we were done at the hosp, being I have to stop smoking I'm going to just change to weed, that won't hurt me. I ALSO seen today what not eating all day can do for me too, I went almost the day without eating cause I ate me a med size bowl of cereal(rasin bran) a hr B-4 we left home & after we got back home I took my sugar test. I was totally surprised at the reading I got back (151) HOT danm ! ! ! NOW that's THE BEST I have seen it since I started all this, so what does THAT tell me?? as long as I eat a meal at breakfast & go the rest of the day without eating, my sugar count goes down, GREAT. Don't get bent out of shape I know I have to be carfull about going without food all day & what my sugar does, I've been learning how this works, So I'm gonna have to live with it. Hubby hasn't said much about everything he's heard today about how bad my health is, BUT I'M sure he has some or a lot of worries, concerns, hell I know I would & DO. So folks can I lean on your shoulders & cry? & at the SAME time give you a hug for being here for me? cause this isn't going to be easy, or a fast fix, Happy new year to me huh? I hope you all had a great day, better than mine I have a lot of work to do on myself, so I guess this is what my new yrs is going to start out like. I have a list of execercise's I got from P T & all the walking I do when we go shopping O M G we cruze the whole store out in a couple hrs up & down each asle picking up this that & ?? As soon as I get what I need from the diettion A diebeties food list-chart, I'll be working on a MEAL schedule to get THAT where I need it. I told the lady I talked to today that I need #'s of what carbs I can or can't have fiber, sodium things I can & can't eat, from what I do eat. While we were at aldies today for just some eggs I eneded up walking out with a 100 $worth of fruits & a new set of pj's like I don't have enough as it is. 3 bags of stuff for a 100$ GOOD LORD ! ! ! but that's alright cause I'll eat the fruit I buy & make all the fruit salads I can have, that works for me. So anyway not to write a book, I just had to get this off my shoulders, & hang out with you all awhile, it's just 1;30 am here, hubby's asleep. So I'm sitting here running this all through my head & smoking me a duby, while the morn hrs rolls by, I had a 4 hr nap, that's why I'm up. Well folks & friends you all take care have a blessed day & take care of yourselves life is short, don't take it for granted, be good to yourself.
