My new normal (Day 5)

Stats for the Day: Breakfast BG- 85 Lunch BG- 75, Dinner BG- 82. 30 minutes on the bike twice, 4 shakes, 1 bar, no off eating

The days are getting easier. I like that.

So today was my second day in a row with no metformin. It seems for at least the duration of this super low carb diet I will not be requiring diabetes medicine. That is awesome. When I first went on the medicine I set a goal of getting my weight to the point where I didn't need medicine any longer. My weight is not setting it so that I don't need medicine any more, but I now have hope that I could get there.

The exercise is getting easier to do also. Today during my evening bike ride I didn't even notice that I was riding faster than I normally do. I was averaging closer to 10 MPH instead of 9 MPH. When I started out I purposely slowed myself down to make sure I wasn't burning myself out with the thought of increasing speed later. It was nice to see speed coming on by just listening to my body.

I hope to get some readers eventually. My wife reads these, but it appears no one else does. I can understand why not one is reading it, I can't even find this with a google search. I guess I will have to look into how to increase my page rank. If you are reading this, feel free to leave a comment.
