Weight Loss

Well it's been a while since I wrote about my diabetes. I had the clinic on Tuesday and I am glad to report that I lost another 2.3 kilos so all in all I have lost 2st 6lbs in weight which I am really pleased about. Unfortunately, my blood sugars are still not under control and am now taking the last step of upping my dosage of metaformin to 6 x 500mg a day on top of my injections and all the other pills I have to take. I really don't know what else to do as I have tried all the things the diabetic nurse has suggested and nothing seems to take the blood sugars down. This morning was one of the best readings at 13.2 which is still very high. If this doesn't work then when I see the specialist in June she might say I have to go onto insulin which is the very last thing I want. Anyway, will cross that bridge when it happens.

Meantime I have used one of my stash cards that I made last year added a few finishing touches and an insert for our cousins 87th birthday on Saturday. I hope it will cheer her up as she is now residing in a home down in Surrey.

Monday Blues

Monday again, and although I am feeling loads better still don't feel 100% myself, just can't put my finger on it, so to speak. Well was going out to lunch with a friend today but she phoned and cancelled as she wasn't feel too good either.
Will gives me time to catch up on some stuff and post this card which I made yesterday. Another Rachelle Anne Miller stamp which I bought and love, hope you like it too!

Another Challenge

I am suffering badly from neuralgia today and popping painkillers like sweets. Thought I would have a go at another challenge to keep my mind of off the pain. This week it is Papertake Weekly Challenge. I used one of my new stamps from Rachelle Anne Miller and my Prisma pencils. A bit fiddly to do as image has loads of colours in it. Papers are from Kate Knight and rest is from my stash.



Hope you like it and thanks for dropping by........
