Weight Loss_What have I discovered?
Since, I had my surgery I've had a difficult time trying to continue losing weight. I exercise regularly and I even play two sports. I've not understood why I'm not able to lose weight. I was able to lose weight in the beginning but since my gallbladder surgery I wasn't able to lose any weight. Every since my husband has been home from Iraq he has started cooking again. Usually when he cooks, I'm not able to lose weight. I've expressed this to him and he gets aggravated but it's the truth. Whenever he prepares meals for us I stop losing weight and start gaining weight. I also feel bad whenever cooks. Also, I've been having dizzy spells. Therefore, I decided it was time to take a look at what I'm predisposed too and start looking from that perspective. The biggest issue I have is Diabetes. I'm trying to prevent from having Diabetes. I decided to purchase a blood glucose monitor and see what were my numbers. The day I purchased the glocose monitor I was not feeling good. When I checked my blood, I was sitting at a whopping 100mg/dl. Wow, this indicates pre-diabetes, not high enough for Diabetes but high enough to declare Pre-Diabetes. I've decided to start looking at Glycemic diets and this is what I've found so far. It seems to me there is one thing common amongst foods I can't eat and that would be if it's white it's not right. I have to eat Wheat Bread, no rice, no corn, potatoes but only the sweet are good for me, and milk only if it's 1%. Therefore, I've begun to research Glycemic Diets to see what they were all about. I decided to try the diet and guess what? I've lost 3lbs in a weekend and I feel so much better. That is amazing!
