Weight Loss	Question for diabetic people	Dec 05 2007 02:04 (UTC)	1
I am not only a type II diabetic but an RN as well. I agree with everyone who said go and see your doc, but if you cannot get in to see him for a couple of weeks, I would suggest making the appt asap and then using your dad's glucometer a few times a day and keep a record of the readings to give to your doc and also make a list of any symptoms you may be having such as night sweats, urinary frequency, becoming shaky/sweaty if you miss a meal, excessive tiredness, headaches, excessive thirst or excessive hunger. Keep a diary of intake, excercise, symptoms, and glucose readings. Mark each entry with a date and time and bring it with you to your doctor's appt, that way if you are diabetic you will not delay treatment. And I have to agree with jenmcc....since begining a diet and excercise program, I am now off all diabetic meds (glucophage & insulin) and my sugars that were 120s fasting before are now between 85-95 all the time, so just because a person is diagnosed with it doesnt mean it cant be treated without meds. Good luck!

Weight Loss	3000+ Cals A Day!! Can This Be Real???	Nov 24 2007 06:12 (UTC)	2
Duke, You have lost a LOT of weight over the last months as I have seen in some of your other posts, so dont get discouraged. You definitely need to listen to your body and right now it sounds like you are gonna need 3000+/day but as your weight drops that will change. You should notice that you will gradually need fewer calories and that as you build muscle you will burn more even at rest. And like skinny kitty said, always listen to your doc, especially if you are losing faster than 2lb/wk. Keeping your doc in tune with you will help prevent any problems from weight loss and increased activity. I see my doc every 4-6 weeks just to keep her up to date on what/how I am doing, that way if something does go wrong, she knows how to handle it especially after hours when she has no chart in front of her. It is so important,( I have been a nurse for 14 yrs and cant begin to tell you how many times Ive had to call a doc for admission orders at 1 in the morning to have the doc say something like..."what is going on with them? I havent seen this patient in several years. How can I give orders for her?, just have the on call resident take a look at her and I will see her in the morning") I hate to see people get poor care but if you dont keep your doc posted thats what happens. Keep up the good work and keep your head up, we all hit plateaus every now and again but if you stay focused, all of a sudden the scale will just drop, so just keep it up. You are an inspiration to many.
Foods	Please don't let Splenda products fool you.	Nov 20 2007 16:53 (UTC)	40
Personally, I have been using Splenda since it came out and so has my husband and 15 yr old daughter (I don't keep any sugar in the house). I cook with it, bake with it, put it in coffee or anything else that requires sugar (except peanut brittle- doesn't set properly) and neither my husband or daughter can tell the difference and neither can my parents who swear up and down that they can tell. I am a diabetic and so much as a cup of coffee with 1 teaspoon of sugar can raise my blood sugar 50pts within 30 minutes but the Splenda does not. I am also an RN and the only docs that don't recommend Splenda to their patients are the old school docs who are getting ready to retire and I have yet to meet anyone with those types of complaints. Now I had similar symptoms up until about a month ago and we always thought it was my diabetes meds, but turns out I have celiac disease and within 3 days of eliminating gluten all symptoms disappeared completely. Now I wouldn't recommend certain sweeteners like xylitol or mannitol as they are low doses of laxatives and most of your sugar free candies are sweetened with them and they will cause diarrhea and cramping but as for your case, I think you are probably looking at more of a hypersensitivity than just mere side effects.

It can be found almost anywhere.
Motivation	I need to lose 70-80 lbs. ~ Anyone else??	Nov 14 2007 18:29 (UTC)	3
Here's my update: I started at 232.7 on 9/24/07 with 102 lbs to lose. I have worked out faithfully 6 days a week with the only exception being from 11/3-11/11 because I had surgery on my left hand, but follow my caloric intake closely. I met my 1st goal of 10% of total body weight lost a few days ago. today, I weighed 207.2 which is 25.5 lbs lost and 25% of the way to my ultimate goal of 130 lbs. My next mini goal is to reach 188 pounds by 1/21/08. As of today, I have 77.2 pounds to go. My husband bought me new jeans, size 14(size I wore before we got married) for my birthday and I can now get in them, not comfortably yet, but I can now get them on and zipped. When he bought them I couldnt get them past my knees so I figure 10 more pounds and I should be able to wear them and I cant wait for that!!!

After looking at their website, i think the only people that should go there are those who need to come up with extra calories. Its good to know though, especially on the days that I cant seem to figure out how to get those last 200 calories in, now I have a solution without excess fat intake.
