I scheduled an appointment to see my doctor today. She wanted to administer the A1c test to see how everything was progressing. She thought I looked well. She said that on a number of occasions which made me feel like I must be doing something right. It turned out to be a nice visit. After we talked about our respective home lives for a bit, she asked me how I was handling everything. I told her that other than the fact that I'm not getting as much sleep as I should be everything else is going pretty well.  I told her that I've been carefully watching what I'm eating. I read every single label now and more recently I started switching from conventionally grown foods to organics. I figure that can only help in the long run. I don't want any strange chemical or pesticides in my food. She was very supportive. She thought all of these were really positive steps. Once I incorporate even more of the changes I've been wanting to make she wanted to see me and then decide from there if there was anything else that we should add to my newfound routines and habits. So far so good though!
