Now that Christmas is over and all the sweets are almost out of the house that a family member is eating, I feel I can get started on my diet again. I am really going to give it a try. I know I have to find ways to healthy cooking more. I already started using Canola non stick spray instead of using oil and frying. I am also trying to bake more of my meats too. I need to choice eating more vegetables and also a balance of fruits in my diet. I have a time resisting carbohydrates and simple sugar during the holiday times. My blood sugars have been going up and down too much during the holidays. Now is the time to get serious about my diabetes and losing this excess weight for my health sake.
