Day 7 Blood Glucose: 127 Raw War

Day four has reared its ugly head. Even though I'm not feeling hungry on this raw plan, I'm waging an inwardly angry war. Everywhere I go, everywhere I look, there is food that is unbelievably tempting. Cooked aromas are embedded in the air, and although I try hard to avoid temptation, it is a constant internal battle. Today my blood glucose is a tiny bit higher than yesterday, however, it is important to note that this is only the 2ND day off all meds. Patience is required as my body learns to recalibrate and reteach itself to produce insulin without the help of pharmaceuticals. It's definitely worth the wait.

By the way, my sense of humor is missing. If found, please contact me immediately. Perhaps tomorrow (4Th of July), when I witness others sipping lemon drops, scarfing down hamburgers oozing with thousand island dressing, toasting marshmallows, and eating hot gooey smores, my hidden sense of humor will pop out of nowhere, and I'll reclaim my jovial self . . . When pigs fly! I don't care what other addicts say, this eating raw for 30 days is right up there with kickin' an intense drug habit. Lesson 3: Sometimes in life you get dealt a raw deal!
