I was reading through the dLife Viewpoints section today and saw a post that really hit home.
It's called "Bested by a Can of Tomato Soup" by Scott Johnson and I think it should be required reading for type 3's and other people without diabetes.
Counting carbs can sometimes be a difficult and maddening situation.
And we do it for virtually every meal every day. I mean, we are supposed to.

A month ago, dLife sent out an invitation to join their new Tummy Trim Challenge. It's a six week program to trim an inch off your waist. This is important because abdominal, or visceral, fat increases your risk of heart disease and other diabetes complications. I thought it was perfect for me -- a great way to get re-motivated on my weight loss journey.

I missed reporting last week. I'm happy to say that my weight has stayed the same and my fasting sugars are edging below 110. I'm sad to say I am continuing to struggle with good food choices, and losing the battle too often.
One of the things I was happiest about with the week 2 challenge information was the article on healthy food substitutions. I almost didn't click on the link. How many times have we read articles about this that say inane things like "Swap water for one of your colas every day to lose 15 lbs in one year!". As if anyone watching their weight, or with diabetes, is still drinking sugared soda and doesn't know it's a poor choice!

A day late, and not a dollar, but a pound short; I'm here reporting in on my first week on the dLife Tummy Trim Challenge. I didn't lose anything in week 1. On the positive side, I didn't gain either.
I logged some of my food. To be exact, 2 whole days and several partial days. As my fellow blogger, Michelle Kowalski, also admitted this week; I am accepting the fact that I have a dysfunctional relationship with food. In other words, I eat for reasons other than fueling my body. Because of this, logging my food both works well to help me reach my goals, and is incredibly hard to do.

I've mostly noticed it when I'm standing in front of the bathroom mirror. There's this distinctive pudge that pooks out from my shirts; sometimes I feel like I look six months pregnant. I can't figure out if I'm imagining this pudge or if it's actually there.
I periodically get on the scale to see where I am, to sort of put things in perspective. I was getting on the scale almost once a day (yes, I know that's not the best way, but I do it anyway because I'm curious) after I restarted my walking program. I got incredibly frustrated with Byetta not really working and with gaining and losing the same 4 lb. in the course of several months. I was close to tossing the scale out the window. (READ MORE)
