Ok here we are again! It is Sunday night, and I had a good day out with my friend Chris. I left my credit card at an ATM, which I have never ever done, and so I had to cancel it. But that meant that I couldn't eat lunch. So the glucose readouts were low today. Let's start from the beginning. This morning I woke up and I had 264 for a fasting level (the level I want to see go down). This was awesome because none of my levels have gotten below 291 for the past week. So I had a bagel with some butter for breakfast, and around 3 hours later, my blood sugar was only 294, where most of my after meal levels have been around 350! As the day went on I got down to 214, and then before dinner at around 7 I was at around 199! 199!
I am so happy right now. I really hope this metformin and glipizide are working! I just had 3 oz of lean chicken and salad topped off with ranch dressing. So let me tell ya'll... a diabetic diet just sucks. I mean it sucks royally. But if it means I can still fly then I will eat cow crap if that is what it takes.
When you are in that cockpit, all the world is beneath you. The sky is there and there is nothing to stop you. There is nothing but the flashing lights out at the end of the wing tips, and at night all the world is asleep beneath you. You are no prisoner of gravity. You are free to be who you want to be. You can fall, you can climb, you can defy gravity. You can be a pilot.
At the bottom of the blog I have listed a playlist with some of my favorite songs to listen to while I fly. I'm actually listening to them right now. Yes some of them are old, and some are the bee gees, but that is what I love listening to haha. I'm an old fashioned kid. Give them a listen and let me know what you think won't you?
Just a side note before I log off tonight, I would like to get more messages, I always want messages from readers. If you would like a copy of my diabetic meal plan, which is specifically designed for diabetic glucose control, I would be happy to scan it for you and send it your way!
Thanks for reading!
This is Evan,
Signing off.
