Doctor's visit

Had a visit to the doc today to check how effective is the medicine in lowering the glucose level. I got a 9 or a 162. That's not too bad. Previously it was in the 300 region. Bad side to the medication though.. I have runs and headache but doc say its norm and will review in two weeks time to recheck if it still continue. In addition, the blood pressure seems to be normal now. Could be due to the lower glucose in blood.

In the next visit, will be also visiting an eye doctor. I am kinda worried about that, hearing bout people becoming blind due to diabetes. Crossing fingers that all will be okay!

Today's breakfast was an egg sandwich and lunch was a portobello grilled mushroom sandwich. I am aiming to try to eat more veg and cut down on the meat. So far so good. Telling myself that I shouldnt quit cold turkey otherwise it would feel torturous and I'll quit even faster. I am trying to make healthier food choices, reading labels in everything that I buy (something that I still read and scratch my head sometimes).

For exercise, I am trying to continue doing it. Maybe I should play more of the Wii tennis. I have a slight ache in the forearm from swinging the wii controller too hard. Lol... it gotta burn some calories right?
