In "movies I have not thought about for 30 years," Dr. T made a Who Framed Roger Rabbit reference today. He said, "I doubt you'll remember this" and mentioned the movie. Then said, "the main character's girlfriend, I forget her name."
Me: "Jessica Rabbit?" He seemed surprised I knew that. (I mean, the movie was a big deal at the right age for me, plus I saw it on TV a couple times, or maybe we had it on VHS, I forget.) His reference was about the value that humor can bring to a relationship (including the therapeutic one, at least in my case). As he said, in the movie, she was asked how Roger ended up with someone like her. And she said, "He makes me laugh." |

I never saw Roger Rabbit, but Jessica Rabbit was all over all the media and never left, IMO. Plus i always thought of Jessica as "Bugs Bunny in drag made a movie." How could anybody not know them?
Artie - did your doc prescribe a glucose monitor? I wish i had been MUCH more diligent about using mine when i started on this journey as they say. The feedback you get is soooo worth it. Also, repeat after me - salads and vegetables are your friend! |

I'm trying so hard not to beat myself up for this. I need to just completely skip that part and radically change my diet, that's all. My sister's wife did it, after being hospitalized with dangerously high b/s, I am going to ask them for some tips. |

They now have meters you can wear for 2 weeks at a time. I wear one every other two weeks. They're too expensive for me to wear all the time. It tracks your sugars every minute so you can see exactly how food and exercise affects you. I love it. I don't use the other meter at all because it hurts to do it. It also does a simulated a1c estimate. I think it's gmi? Don't quote me on that.
Metformin is a good drug. Many, myself included, have severe gi problems at the start. Don't be discouraged if it happens. It will go away if you can get through it. H couldn't get through it. __________________ "Odium became your opium..." ~Epica |

Couch Workout Club day 73
I phoned today's workout in because I'm not feeling that great in my head or my body. A few minutes of exercises in my favourite self-care app. __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |
