Had I not gone for a run this morning, this is what I would have missed
Fighting diabetes is always a struggle. But today it was exhilarating.
I do not take tablets. Rely on a strict low gi diet and exercise.

Keep at it. It's much better for you and easier. I managed for about 10 years but succumbed to the metformin a while back and now am on the fullest strength. It keeps me active out of the worst effects of the disease. It was explained to me the diabetes is a progressive disease so I couldn't have done more to stop it: but I still wonder.

I have diabetes. I am on Ozempic and cut out all added sugar. My A1C is down. I am trying to diet, too. Yet usually I just skip meals, rather than eat better.
I cannot jog since diabetes has made my toes numb. Also, I had a neck infection that spread to my spine and I could not walk for a while. I can walk now but not run, or even jog. So wobbly and numb.

I am getting better. My toes are less numb, and I am more mobile.
I am also being treated for diabetic retinopathy, which could have led to blindness. But that treatment is working, too.

I eat about one normal meal a day. I often skip lunch at work and walk around the office grounds. It has grass and trees.

I love that last photo. I love art and I do paint a little. Sometimes draw. I love to look at art for hours and for that reason I saved a copy of that last photo, but I promise you it will only go as far as my eyes and I will never share it as that would be disrespectful and unfair to you. I love your art.
