I have heard it said before that the only difference between a drug addict and a food addict, is that you can't live without food. That is so true. You can't expect an alcoholic to be free from his vice if he has to drink five to six small drinks a day.
It is the first day and I've already got a headache. I'm shaking, and I feel jittery and weak. I realized I have not had a carb since breakfast, so I sent Shawn out to pick up some rice to eat with my taco salad.
I can't do this on my own. I have lots of support from friends, but I can only do this through Christ, which strengthens me.
You know what they say. You gotta eat!
I went out today and got my medical alert bracelet. It says "diabetic" on the back. It totally sucks to be tagged. I feel like a statistic. Of course, I got a chuckle when I thought of Bethany. She is allergic to nuts, and is supposed to wear medical ID, too. Her doctor recommended a necklace, because if she lost her hand in an accident, her bracelet would fall off. I guess she would not need to notify emergency personnel if she lost her necklace due to her head falling off.
