My diet has been lacking the last few months. I’ve known this was going to be an issue and my recent lab results show my hemoglobin a1c at 8.9, a far cry from the 7 it’s usually at and the 6.1 considered normal.

This despite the fact that my exercise schedule has been reasonable if not optimal.

It’s easier to keep your sugar down if it never enters your system. Of course, that’s often easier said than done.

So I’ve targeted my diet. I have to stay as far away from excessive carbohydrates as possible, although I’m far from perfect (for instance, I had a pasta dish on Saturday night). This weekend has been better; salads from Costco and the micro priced (but also micro sized) Side Salad from McDonalds (on their dollar menu, and looks like it, although the picture from AboutMcDonalds.com is really impressive).

It’s time to get those numbers back down again, and working out, while critically important, isn’t even half of what I need to do.
