Lose 20 pounds in 6 months.
That’s what the doctor told me to do.
I went in for a diabetic checkup.
My A1C is 5.7!
For those of you unfamiliar with what the hell that means, 5.6 or lower is not diabetic. I’m almost there!!!
My blood sugar is fairly stable with the medication and diet that I have been following.
The diet sucks!
No grains, no sugar, no high carb fruits or veggies or dairy products.
I eat a lot of meat, cheese, nuts, and low carb veggies. I eat some sugar free candy, not a lot cuz it can screw up my gut. I eat a little bit of berries. I have a little half and half in my chai tea.
I’ve done rather well for 4 months sticking to it.
But I’m really missing CARBS!!!
The doctor said I can have some carbs if 90% of the time I’m sticking to the low carb plan. YAY!!!
In 2022 I dropped 40 pounds using intuitive eating. That means eating what I want, when I want, how much I want, as long as I’m listening to my body. I think I’ll try to implement that with low carb eating.
I’ve been using Reiki on myself to help heal diabetes too.

I’ll also be using Reiki to help me lose weight.
