Good Afternoon Tommi,
I gave up soda cold turkey three years ago as a New Years Resolution. I was always tired, and was crazy overweight. As a result of giving up my three 20oz Cokes a day and no fast food, I lost 35lbs in three months. I have lost 50lbs in three years and I try to power walk atleast three miles a day<depends on the weather>.
Good luck and hoping your next dr visit is much better..Give your little Tigger a hug from me!
Try some dried cranberries in your oatmeal, that is what I like to eat as a snack and when I really want to be bad, I eat 72% to 85% dark chocolate. What they say is correct about dark chocolate. It naturally helps to lower your blood pressure and has plenty of antioxidants in it.
Have fun today!
Zimmy

But, I was not seeing her back molars ,and when the Vet showed me hear gums and teeth, it was not pretty.
WOW. thank you for the post above. Your post sounds like my doctor visit. , :she said I am pre-diabetic..or borderline, my cholesterol is high, my BP is high, and all the stuff that goes with it.
I am a fast food junky ( non-cook no excuse any longer) and I love my Diet Coke. I am going to have to really buckle down and do just what you did,/
" fruits and veggies and whole grains" shopping I must go. Bye, off to work, and no drivethru anymore.  |
