My Blog, is not a traditional blog, per se. I do not daily write pearls of wisdom for all to peruse and accept or reject. If I did, it would definitely be all about Politics. While I do have a lot to say regarding this Country and the current and future state of affairs, I know that neither I nor you have time in this life for that.
However, today I do choose to write! Will wonders never cease?!?
I wanted to say that I might just have found a diet, oh no "Bad Word". Rather, I found an eating/exercise pattern that I can follow that at the moment, anyway, is garnering results.
Believe you, me, it is not one a Doctor would approve, Completely devised by me, it does not have normal diet type foods. But it is working. I am seeing results. And while some of the foods might not be say the best for my Diabetes, I firmly believe the best thing for my Diabetes is LESS WEIGHT!
So anyway, this is what I am doing and I am not telling anyone so that they may follow my example. This is only how I choose to do it. And maybe a week or two down the road, it will cease working and this blog will have been for naught.
I started this Pattern on February 6th. It is now March 10th and I have lost 14.5 pounds!
This is what I am doing and it really seems as though I am eating all the time. I have not found myself to be hungry all the time. Basically, I am pretty satisfied most of the time! The Lose It App has been so very helpful to me. That is where I log everything in, weight, calories, exercise, etc. Food: basically anything that I want. If I want 2 blueberry pancakes for breakfast with butter and syrup that is what I have. But I count all the calories and I abide by what I have available to me in the budget. I even snack on 4 mini donuts at times. It is a lot of repetition day to day, but that does not bother me. As long as I have a way to really know what the calories are I can account for them. I also have a lot of sugar-free jello with bananas. Exercise: Lately, I have incorporated a little bit of exercise. You can be sure that I am not hurting myself. LOL I am getting on the treadmll twice a day for 30 minutes each at a stride of 2.0.
But please tell me APP People, why when I have worked so hard and lost a few pounds why do you reward me with LESS CALORIES in my budget????
So I will keep this up and see where it takes me. Hopefully, I will have much more to write.

Yay! That's awesome. Glad you found something that works! I have also started losing weight these past few weeks by doing meal replacement shakes. Now if I could only get your wonderfully stubborn son to join me... Keep up the good work!
