Hey Shell B,

Long time! How many carbs do you eat a day? 

What happened to your back?

Stay blessed!

I'm currently trying to stay near 100-150 with as much as possible being fiber carbs. I'm well above the starving yourself of carb range and well below the "holy shit, bread!" range. Should be okay.

I have been having back spasms for a little more than a year. Tibs wasn't happy about it, so he made me go to the doctor. I'm hoping her exercises and stretches will have me back in fighting form. We also bought a TENS machine. Turns out, that shit really works.

I love Zquil for sleep. I used to take melatonin as well. Fuck it. Better living through chemistry.

I got my doc to cut my metformin in half as I was getting low blood sugar. I feel great!

Glad to hear it.

Got a little scare when I got on the scale -something I don't often do lately- and discovered I was at 192, 10 pounds over my lowest in my last effort to lose. So I cut out the scone on the way home from the Y and a day later was back to 190 at least. I think it is clear that while I might be able to maintain without careful monitoring my hopes of gradually drifting down in weight don't seem justified. Oh well.

Welp the doctor said I'm gaining too much weight so I have to get really on board with my diet again. Can't have pasta and bread and any of the good shit. I was upset with myself when I saw him so I forgot to ask if rice was in that category. I figure white rice is but not sure about anything else. Anyone know if any kind of rice is okay to eat?

What's wrong with eating a bit less of the things you like?

Because I'm already high risk for diabetes because of the PCOS and I've already ate through my cushion of weight I can gain. >.>

Aren't crackers under the same thing as bread? I don't think I can have them. Doctor said meat, fruit, veggies.
