Last week, I posted a discussion asking if I was experiencing diabetic symptoms. I got labs tests done and got the results today. I am happy to report that I do NOT have diabetes. Whooooohoooo! I do have a low thyroid so I'll be on medication but I am so glad it wasn't diabetes and I am so glad I got checked. So if you're not feeling well and suspect something may be wrong go get yourself checked! You won't regret it!

That is good news. I have been teetering on the border for a couple of years now. I had gestational diabetes with my pregnancies and with each one it got progessively worse. It did go away all three times but they keep a close eye on me and my blood sugar. They tell me if I just lose 10 pounds I will probably be safe, and on the flip side if I gain just 5 pounds I will likely be a full blown diabetic. I can't seem to lose that 10 pounds but I do make sure that I don't gain even a pound or two. There is diabetes on both sides of my family so I am likely doomed.

That is wonderful news! I had gesational diabetes when I was pregnant and that was no fun at all.
