Skipping meals is a non starter for me. I eat 3 square plus 3 snacks. And I still needed to get my blood sugars up last night.

Todd a few years ago I lost 7 pounds the first week of this calorie counting diet, 7 pounds the second week, got pissed like you the third week because I didn't lose any weight (But lost 3 whole pant sizes) then lost another six pounds the following week. Did you still have any pants that fit? [;)]

Happy birthday David Levine! Having a birthday during the offseason means we can't wish for a Viking win to celebrate with you, but in place of that they are fixing a leaky roof in your honor. [sm=dothewave.gif]

Happy Birthday, David!

Have a great BDay, David! Are you going to one of those Michelin star restaurants, or Jack in the Box for your birthday dinner?

David Levine -> RE: Vikes water cooler thread (2/22/2016 1:04:23 PM)
Thank you all!

We actually spent the past 3 days celebrating. Got a suite comped at the Wynn and then had good friends spend the weekend trying to one-up each other with the meals. It may be hours before I eat again...

todd: hypoglycemia is no joke.. keep an "emergency " candy bar or sucrose tabs handy,, the weak faint feeling can go from "feeling tired" to passed out into a life threatening coma in minutes. my wife has it sometimes.. has to have sucrose pills in her purse. do not "tough it out". also.. a low carb diet, may or may not be the best thing. .i am not a doctor.. and if yours has you restricting carbs, be sure to address the low blood sugar and weakness and tired feeling with your doctor.. he may lower your dose of the a1c control meds. everybody needs carbs in some form. they are the quickest and easiest form of food that converts to energy in the body. when you are at work, keep a pocket full of cheerios or some kind of easy to carry carb with you and have a handful from time to time.. I keep cheese sticks in my lunch box which is near the bathroom in our shipping department breakroom.. if i get tired , i go for a "bathroom break" and grab a cheese stick and peel it open and eat it for a little boost.. cutting calories forces your body to break down stored fat for metabolic energy, but it is more complex and takes time to burn fat.. do NOT "avoid Carbs" like a plague.. your body needs some, always. sugar carbs come from three primary sources. sucrose = carbs Fructose = fruits and veggies Lactose = milk and dairy yogurt is good for you can be snacky.. has good digestive biologic cultures and provides a lot of protein for its serving size.. be sure to check with doctor about the extreme low blood sugar, asap it is serious.

I should probably post this in the Timberwolves thread, but I am not a basketball fan and don't post over there. My non-profit "Books on Wings" just received a grant from the Timberwolves Fastbreak Foundation that I applied for at the end of January. We were chosen as one of the recipients and included will be 12 tickets to the game on March 30th IN A SUITE, with some food and beverage included, plus a short ceremony pregame to honor our work! How cool is that? So my first Timberwolves game will be in a suite. And most importantly my non-profit will be receiving a really nice check, and I did the math and figured that we'll be able to get books to just over 1000 kids with that.

If I go down again tonight I will see the dr tomorrow. I have my regularly scheduled apt for a week from now but it could very well be I need to take the meds down a notch sooner rather than later. Which is kind of a good thing. I cannot imagine for the life of me trying to figure out insulin shots at this time. I haven't had a high number in more than a week of a 2 week start. Then again I don't know what amount of metformin I would have been given if I started on the insulin shots at the same time. All I know...other than the odd crash last night everything has been looking good. And if I already need less medication then I deserve a shiny star or something. I think the dr thought 'good luck fatty' with my pre diabetes diet and figured I'd need a whole shit ton of meds to give me a chance. Little does he know...

Sounds like a blast. It was ridiculous. The food highlight was probably the 90 day dry-aged Rib-eyes with a few bottles of the best wine I've ever had. Especially the 1100.00 (!) Brunello that changed the way I thought of reds...

Sorry - I think the six of us who serve on the board and our six spouses will use up all 12 tickets. [:D]

[sm=dothewave.gif][sm=icon_dance.gif][sm=icon_dance.gif][sm=icon_dance.gif] Way to go Lynn. Congrats to you and your non-profit. I experienced the Suite Life once. It was awesome. This was back in the last great gophers basketball season I think it was 1994. You know the one that didn't happen where we "didn't" go to the final four. While enjoying the food booze and Wolves we were also watching the Gophers playing Indiana on TV. Gophers came back from 8 or 9 down with 30 seconds remaining for the win. What a great night.
