1. Crystal Light is my friend
2. I'm 42
3. I love my dogs. The cats are just alright but the dogs stole my heart !
4. I love clothes and it took a good long hard look in the mirror to realize it wasn't working
5. I hate winter
6. I set up a little GYM in my garage and use my own two feet to walk after every weight workout
7. I can't wait for nicer weather so I can swim in my pool and swim laps at the local pool.
8. At my last Doctor appointment my blood pressure was up and I take a pill once a day to control it. With diet and exercise I will be able to throw those pills out eventually !!
9. My jeans are baggy now
10. I have several goals and some of them are mini goals.
11. I LOVE Starbucks and am now making friends with the Tall Skinny Latte !
12. I like how my body feels when I'm done with my weights and walk. I feel each day like I was able to accomplish something.

15. I have a husband and two busy kids.
16. Did I say how much I love my dogs ?
17. Someone called me the "Queen of Facebook" the other day and that might just be right.

Hi,
Congrats on changing your health. My experience with pre-diabetes is that it is the artificial sweeteners that made me insulin resistant. The body doesn't know what to do with those chemicals so they remain in the blood stream, elevating your blood sugar. I use stevia and it tastes great and does not screw-up my blood sugar/glucose. Any health food store carries it. Believe me, Crystal Light is not your friend nor is the skinny latte. Green tea is a great alternative too and it has weigh loss properties.
Good luck!
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment....I will check into this....Have a great day !!!!!
