Last January, I was so happy about my blood chemistry results; almost all were in normal conditions in spite of the fact that it was just after the holidays when there's so much food.
But yesterday, I was so sad because my FBS (fasting blood sugar) went over the maximum normal level. It should not be over 105 mg/dl, but mine was 122. Even the other indicators went overboard, like the cholesterol and uric acid levels.
My main concern is the sugar level because it is hard to be a diabetic, although I still have a good control of it as indicated in the test. I am not yet diabetic.
So it is time to be conscious again of what I am eating; also have to be active again, doing some 20 to 30 minutes of walking or cycling every morning.
Are you conscious of what you are eating?

As we grow old, we become conscious of such health indicators. I think you are still young, but it is good to have it checked so you can avoid being diabetic. Just stick to a healthy diet and avoid too much sweets.

It's really good to be always conscious of what we are eating.

So it made you curious too of what you should eat. It is hard to be diabetic.

I was so confident before because I had good lab. results last January; then it went over the borderline this March.

I'm very careful... my mom didn't take care of herself as a diabetic and she paid for it!

It really pays to be careful about our diet because diabetes is a lifestyle disease. So sad your mother has it.

I have a test last year so it is normal so far but I have to keep an eye of what I am taking now because it is hard to regret later.

I am sorry to hear that, I would be happy with 122 FBS since I am diabetic and am coming down from high sugars....hopefully with being conscious of them you can get it back to normal! I must eat low carb to take care of my numbers.

I agree, carbohydrates is the culprit; just be conscious of what you (me) are eating. It's a hard situation, I know it because my husband is diabetic too.
