BS 101 Plan B Is Working

Some may recall my blood sugar had been going way way up. Any higher and it would have been in the realm of the Friendly Giant! (look him up) 
Some may recall my blood sugar had been going way way up. Any higher and it would have been in the realm of the Friendly Giant! (look him up) Image Creator spells no better than I do! The plan has worked. I cut out some foods, reduced others and exercised when and as I could with the heat wave we're in. Blood sugar spiraled down from 138 to 101. I prefer my morning, after 12 hours fasting BS, to be around the 100 mark. Lower than 80 I begin to make adjustments as I do at over 120. Others will of course, have their own preferences. All I know is that this is where I, as a 73-year-old, pudgy expat living in the tropics feels best. And yes, I try to do a daily 12 hour fast. There are times my stomach reacts in a less than pleasant way to either my meds or my fasting but most of the time it's just a question of won't power. Now all that is needed is for me to intelligently and safely navigate whatever bends in the river come my way. Brian
