I had a doctor's appointment on 10/29/2013.   I lost 18 lbs.  However, my A1C was at 7.7.  One of my meds was doubled and I was told to exercise.  I analyzed what I had been doing and I figured I am not doing enough.  Therefore, my daughter and I walked 1 1/4 miles yesterday.  My legs were cramping up so bad at 1:30 this morning.  But we are going at it again today.  I have also invested in another Herbalife product.  I am now taking the snack defense as well as the meal replacements. I do have to confess that I have not been as faithful as would have liked to the Herbalife shakes, but that doctor's visit shook me up.  I am struggling but I will overcome all my struggles.  I will be posting more recipes that I will be trying.  Thank you to all who have read my blog and I hope you continue to read.

yummy

Sorry everyone for not writing more. We got busy with soccer these season. and at the rate my kid is going, we arent going to have time for much of anything. Nonetheless, I have been looking at some recipes that I am wanting to try.  I have been drinking a hot cinnamon spice tea every morning, to help control blood sugar. Apart from being good for me, it is so yummy.  I have recently discovered something new that I want to share with everyone.  I recently purchased an oatmeal from a lil coffee shop here in town(shout out to J&B Coffee Co.)  and in it is a little seed called a chia seed.  Everyone needs to google it and get to eating them because they are so good for you.  It has a higher omega-3 than salmon.  helps control blood pressure, blood sugar and hunger.  You can have it several different ways.  and in ways that the family will never even know about.  Lets all google Chia seeds and get to buying and eating them.

Now here are some recipes that I want to try and would like you to try also..  If you do try one of these recipes(although they are not mine) please comment on here as to if you liked it and if you will try it again.
