Well I blew it again yesterday !!! I couldn't resist the temptation to grab a sugary snack --I did manage to choose celery and peanut butter instead of a candy bar from the hotel lobby store. And I drank more water yesterday and made it a priority to drink as much as I could possibly drink- Getting the recommended amount of water is truly a chore and you have to be very vigilant about it- and by that I mean you really have to be the kind of person who is alway seen with a bottle of water in hand and remember to sip as much as you can. I have found a few creative ways to make this happen, I bought myself a really pretty insulated cup and I fill it with ice water to keep it cold all day - which for me is easier to drink than room temperature water.
  The vitamin intake has become easier and on most days I am able to get all of my vitamins and keep them down, so the learning process is getting easier and easier. I have been walking as much as I can during the day , I take the baby and the dog and it gets them out of this room and into some fresh air , while I am getting my daily cardio exercise .
  I still have high cholesterol but it's 20 points lower than the last time -without any medication, I added coq10 and red yeast rice to my supplements and that combined with the fish oil has drastically lowered my levels. My A1C level was awesome too only4.8 super super good - I am now no longer classified as having type 2 diabetes YAY
