They call me Doctor Love

[cyrano]

So the results of a blood test that I trust came back, and I talked to Doctor Lin. Triglycerides are uncomfortably high, and my fasting blood sugar was at 116. After I talked about the changes I'd made, and the lack of response I saw, she suggested (a) continuing with the changes (b) reducing the amount of white sugar/white flour/white rice I ate (c) starting a program of glucosage.

This is one of those times when the isolation of my schedule really hits. Like I told Dr. Lin, even if I did get on a more regimented diet, I'd be doing it all on my own and I'm unlikely to have the time and energy to follow through. It'd be nice if that weren't true and I could say "Yeah, no problem, I'll just get myself on a diet". I'm hoping the stuff I'm doing now becomes habit and then I can assimilate the next step.

Hrm.

Maybe you can talk to her about a recommendation to a nutritionist? Maybe with some help, it may be something you can do.
