Hello everyone, I haven't talked about my health in a bit so this week I'm giving you an update. Had my first appointment of the year with my primary doctor. He did blood work and my A1C hasn't changed in a year. Been on an injection for a year and along with the other diabetic medicine I'm on, it has kept it (i guess) stable. The doctor did add a medication to help with the diabetes and I'm hoping it helps. I haven't been logging my blood sugar since Thanksgiving. But I started up again last week.
On the weight front I lost 8 pounds since September. I'm really proud of myself and wish it was more. And even though I saw the numbers on the scale I couldn't believe I lost that much. I was expecting it to say I gained. When I posted the news on Facebook a friend responded that they were sorry I lost weight. I pointed out that I was glad and wish it was more. I don't like being overweight and obese. Part of it is due to society and doctors saying it's bad. But personally carrying this weight has made my life a struggle.
Mentally and emotionally my health is ok. Due to the weather we haven't seen the sun in 2 weeks going on 3. It's quite depressing as I have no motivation, ambition, or desire to do anything. I've mainly been sleeping and eating. Though I kinda deep cleaned my room yesterday and took care of changing the litter box. While it put me in pain it felt good to get something accomplished.
On a side note I think I've been doing well posting here once a week and hope it keeps up. I've made a few adjustments in life to help incorporate other habits by implementing them with other habits I have in those days. I just hope to keep up the good work.

I no longer have x (twitter), Instagram, Pinterest, tiktok, or snapchat. At the beginning of the year I did a social media cleanse since I wasn't really using the others.
