Awake, late?

.

.

Yes, both to recent norms, and by when I went to bed.  Must have needed the sleep.  Down at 17:30, hard.  The last bit of gaming totaled me.  Waking and getting up at 3:30.  In better shape?  Well, for now.  But I feel the ribs beginning to whine.  Now, it does look like, between compression hose and water pills, water is... if not leaving the body yet, is vacating the feet.  Not all gone, yet.  But... going.  Another day or two, I am hoping it will be in better trim.  Using old, larger, socks.  Will use newer, smaller, socks when I... can fit them.

Blood sugar is 101 fasting.  Weekly, biweekly, and monthly averages are 106, 124, and 139.   That last?  Is about the A1C from my last visit ~6.5.  Today's reading is around an A1C of 5.1...  Getting there.  I think I have enough blood sugar test strips to last to the end of the month.  Then I'll have to buy more myself.  At least for a while.  I want to monitor it, stay on track.  Especially when trying to add a few foods back.

Eventually, I may just check a few times a week, three, four?  Like that.  Then, just weekly.  I don't want to fall back into diabetes again.  And, it is so very easy.

As well, back on medicine.  Heart medicine, since I am eating regularly again, or... well.. I eat something every day.  Not a lot.  But... something.  As mentioned, I am probably eating less than eight hundred, sometimes as little as two hundred, calories a day.  More usually in the middle there, around four hundred calories.

While it is true, that it's not truly calories in, calories out.  The body just doesn't work that way.  Somc calories are good, some aren't.  What I eat are things my body uses, almost to... completion.  I don't have daily bm's.  Every few days, two to three, to four.  And, if I've been eating cleanly, it goes cleanly.  That is why the French could use the bidet.  Eating right food leaves little mess.

The goals, today?  Finish up the laundry.  Clear and clean the freezertop, and pull more meat into the fridge freezer.  Then finish dishes?  A shower.  And... maybe some work in this front room?  Though, honestly, that's... a bit much.  I might be able to do two or three of those things, on the list.  But... not all.  So tired, hurt is coming back.  I'll... take some painpills with morning meds, see if that could get me through to even what I am hoping.

Good morning and day, or night?  Some of you are probably as bad as I am, about sleep and whatnot all.  Ugh.  I... pray for you, for that, and else.  Later.
