My diet has really gone to hell over the past few weeks because of my reaction to this whole "EMDR" experience... and it's just happenstance but changing medications just before starting off on a light jaunt through my most significant clinical depressions was probably not the smartest plan I've ever had.

As a result of the latter I'm pretty sure I'm going back on the Seroquel in November. My extremely high blood sugar counts, which were almost cut in half this past Spring by the Glyburide, have remained the same since stopping the Seroquel a week ago.

Because one of it's rarer side effects is actually type-2 diabetes, the plan to stop taking the Seroquel had been in the works for the five months since I was diagnosed with diabetes. We were just deciding on something suitable as a replacement of sorts... but I missed two of my twice-monthly appointments and my psychiatrist took his vacation, so it only happened recently.

I'm using 15mgs of Remeron RD (tastes like lemon) as a sleep aid and I'm willing to give it another few weeks, but not having the Seroquel to help me sleep at night has meant my sleep quality has basically gone back to my pre-recovery days. Unlike those days I can get to sleep fairly easily, but it's not steady and it's not restful.

I don't think we actually started both the switch and the EMDR during the same appointment, but once I showed a willingness to talk about certain aspects of my clinical depressions my psychiatrist broke out the headphones and we ran with the EMDR whether the switch had happened or was about to.

It's an interesting catch-22. The clinical depressions which I haven't dealt with at all -- ever -- are keeping me from taking care of myself. Not "better care", just a basic level of "care".

For example, I've been procrastinating forever to substantially change my diet to reflect my diagnosis as having type-2 diabetes. I've been lying to myself for months now, like how I won't eat dessert at my parents' Sunday dinners, but I'll eat a chocolate bar everyday. Or how I won't drink Pepsi but Diet Pepsi is okay, and Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi is an even bigger lie because I'm still drinking two to three Litres of aspartame every day.

And it has been two to three Litres a day... there's four Litres in a gallon. And instead of having meals mixed with different foods I'm still frying up three large sausages for a midnight supper.

But starting to deal with those issues, even if it's as simple as thinking about events while holding blinking lights and wearing headphones, has left me vulnerable to attacks from myself from having never dealt with those issues.

Like how I've gained ten pounds in the month since the first EMDR appointment from drinking regular pop instead of diet and 2% milk instead of 1%. Then there was all the extra chocolate and the chips and ice cream and Sunday dessert and blah and blah. Since the appointment, since really looking at the events I've never dealt with, I have just absolutely given up on myself.

The weekend after the first EMDR appointment two weeks ago would have been the time when, if I were an alcoholic, I would've walked into a convenience store to buy some bottles of Listerine and grape pop. But I'm not an addict so I looked at my medications and thought "this would be so much easier to deal with if I brought the manic depression back.".

But I took the pills.

And the most important thing is I haven't been suicidal. I've punished myself, I've abused the inside of my body more in the past few weeks than I have since I stopped binge drinking, but I have not thought suicide would be better than living.

I have had no fantasies of people mourning at my funeral. These are the most emotional, most complicated and most damaging aspects of my clinical depressions coming forward for the first time, and I feel like I'm reacting somewhat normally.

Talking to my psychiatrist this past Friday about what I had done to myself between appointments made me think about what was going on... kind of like connecting the dots. But then I got home and over the next eight hours I drank sixteen Litres of Diet Pepsi (four gallons).

And it was the gallons of Diet Pepsi that woke me up to the damage I was doing. Early Saturday morning, as I was using the last of the pop to take my bedtime doses of Glyburide, Remeron and my Lithium, that was when I... I guess I came to a conclusion.

It seems so small, but when I woke up yesterday I threw out the last bits of unhealthy food from my fridge, and since then I've cooked proper diabetes-fighting meals and only had two small cans of diet pop.

It seems so small... I've cooked some meals. I've eaten fruit. I haven't had any pop. Compared with what's coming it just feels so small.

And there is so much to do and so many things to work out... and I've started and stopped eating healthy so many times, and there's still the confused matter of how my broken sleeping patterns effect my diabetes and how I'm reacting to the recent assaults coming from the natural clinical depressions.

And most of it scares me, especially because I don't know how I'm going to react to any of this. Watching the hockey game last night the announcer talked about how one young player moved like his father. I am not sentimental but I nearly lost it... and breaking down, which is something I will do soon, is something I have no experience with. None. The last time I cried I was eleven-years old.

And breaking down at this point feels like I'd be doing it without knowing why, or in reaction to the wrong thing... I don't know.

I don't know what I'm doing anymore... I've never had any experience with this. I think I need some really good sleep.

Laihduttaminen alkaa olla läntisessä maailmassa todella suuren ihmisryhmän haaste. Diabetes lisääntyy, vaikka kuinka olisimme vähärasvaisella ruokavaliolla. Kaupat tursuavat kevyttuotteita laidasta laitaan. Jotain on siis pielessä ja melko pahasti. Ihmiset ovat liikuntaharrastuksen suhteen jakautumassa kahteen eri ryhmään. On ne, jotka ovat innokkaita ja harrastavat liikuntaa useina päivinä viikossa. Sitten on ryhmä joka tekee istumatyötä, ja työpäivän jälkeen he surffailevat netissä ja tv-kanavilla. Väittäisin, että ihminen joka ei harrasta liikuntaa, ei tarvitse hiilihydraattia puoliakaan siitä mitä viralliset ravintosuositukset ja lautasmallit suosittelevat.

Hiilihydraatin syöminen saa aikaan kehon insuliinitason nousun. Tämä taas on keholle merkki ryhtyä varastointitoimenpiteisiin, jolloin rasvaa varastoituu rasvasoluihin. Jos ravinnossa on proteiinia, samalla varastoituu myös proteiinia.  Eli lihasmassa, joka edesauttaa rasvan palamista energiaksi, saa tässä mahdollisuuden myös kasvaa. Jos taas proteiinia ei ole, tai sitä on liian vähän,  varastoituu ainoastaan rasvaa rasvasoluihin  sekä hiilihydraattia glykogeenin muodossa lihaksiin. Verensokeri laskee nopeammin proteiiniköyhällä ravinnolla ja kohta keho huutaa taas ruokaa. Sitten ihmetellään, "mikä kumma on, kun taas on nälkä?" Lisäksi lihaksia saattaa jopa heikottaa koska ne eivät ole saaneet haluamaansa ravintoa. Proteiinien ja hiilihydraattien suhde on monella ruokavaliossaan pielessä. Kehonrakentajien keinot "polta rasvaa, ravitse lihaksia" olisi kaikkien ihmisten syytä ottaa tosissaan.

What's changed - Ate too many white powder doughnuts last night. Smoked a smidgen of pot last night. Woke up around 5 with gastric distress and got up and did go #2, but was able to go back to sleep. I slept okay. I didn't have any odd dreams, but was a touch uncomfortable due to the stomach stuff. I didn't feel weird when I woke up. I was definitely alarmed when I saw the FBS.

The rise in BS after breakfast is not an odd occurrence recently, but I still don't like being this high. I'm going to go do some more exercise and housework rather than sit here. My first work shift is over, so I should be fine.

3 p.m. Before lunch number was 119. Better. Not 100% great, but much better.

Food corporations are screwing us.

We can't achieve perfect health, and I'm really not recommending you become so scrupulous with your diet that your quality of life is diminished in any way.  People have immune and detoxification systems for a reason; we can handle a lot of the garbage that gets thrown our way.  People live long, fulfilling and often extremely health lives while eating tons of garbage they shouldn't.

So why should you care? I chose a strong name for this site intentionally, but the fact is, food is inanimate.  It may cause death, but food cannot kill.

But there are people out there influencing what foods make it to your plate, from advertisers to politicians to lobbyists to executives and board members and shareholders of food corporations.  These people have been proven again and again to be harming consumers for profit.

I talked to you about the lies on your food label regarding trans fat, wherein companies may advertise "0% trans fat per serving" when hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils are right there on the ingredients list.

I also mentioned the cement dust and other industrial byproducts used in farm animal feed, fattening animals up while loading them with toxins.

What's your opinion of high fructose corn syrup ads, which make it seem like large amounts of sugar in your spaghetti sauce and whole wheat bread (let alone ketchup and candy bars) is totally normal?

Thankfully, the plastic BPA was recently exposed as a dangerous carcinogen, despite its prevalence (this plastic is being phased out of water bottles, soda and soup cans, and even baby bottles).  Dow Chemical Company spent millions of dollars in an unsuccessful campaign to prevent great research about this from coming to light.

Currently, around 25% of American high schools offer fast food from major chains like taco bell and pizza hut.

In many of the poorest neighborhoods in America, with some of the highest rates of obesity and diabetes, basically the only restaurants are fast food.  Grocery stores and access to fresh produce is often missing entirely.

What about marketing to children?  American children see 40,000, yes 40,000, advertisements on TV every year, and more than half of them are about food. Did you ever see a cartoon character slinging bananas?  What about a cucumber company teaming up and advertising together with the latest superhero movie?  How about education about organic produce?  The fact is, food corporations market so much to children because children don't know any better.  And with such a high sugar diet, lacking real food and balanced meals, it's no surprise that 20 to 25% of American boys are on Ritalin.

Look at the health of young people in the Western world today.  Around 18% of 6-19 year olds are obese, and that number is on the rise.  One third will be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes within their lifetime. Shockingly, more and more are being diagnosed as children.  One half with develop cancer. People under the age of 45 are increasingly at risk for heart attacks.  This is all saddening and tragic.  There is nothing listed above that is not preventable.

All this, and I haven't even talked about Monsanto.  Really, I'm only scratching the surface, folks.  Take a look around; things are not all right.

Food corporations don't give a damn about us unless our concerns mess with their bottom line.  But out of all the money spent on food, around 90% goes to processed garbage foods.

I'm advocating personal responsibility for public health.

Take care everybody, comments are appreciated.

One day I saw my neighbor's sister outside.  I stopped to tell her that for some reason I could not get her sister's late husband out of my mind - the feeling was so strong, as though he was right here.  She told me it was the 3rd anniversary of his death.  He WAS there.

 

After the death of my neighbor's husband, the grandchildren used to visit his widow every day, playing outside.  I told her that going near the area where the raw sewage flooded their yard was dangerous, it could lead to serious health problems and possible death.  Actually, it never occurred to me, nonetheless I never told the widow that the message had come from her late husband.  The children stopped coming to play.  (I later learned that the toxic soil was causing my recurring foot cellulitis.)

PART “D” (in the same section) states, “Faculty organization may make private arrangements for soft drink vending machines in faculty rooms, provided that these machines are inaccessible to students.”

Why then, if we are so concerned about obesity and diabetes in our country, don't we take into consideration our adult population as well?  Faculty are a part of our “school system,” so why is The Law making exceptions for some?  Unfair.

No?

Wesley also talked to me about getting a CGM. I let him know I was interested but I wanted to wait until the system was available w/ the Omnipod.  I let him know it wouldn't make sense to get it now; even though I would love to have one. I let him know it probably won't be easy to get Tricare to approve it but we can cross that bridge in 2009; hopefully when the CGM is available for the OmniPod.   

He did my lab slip! he wants to check my Vitamin D level; a person with dark skin can be lacking it.  He also did a CBC, thyroid check and A1C test.  I warned him that my A1C might have went up since June (6.3).  I will not be upset with myself if it did because it's honestly may fault:) I hate admitting when I did something wrong...lol

Para llegar a esta conclusión científicos de la Queen’s University de Belfast han hecho una revisión de 20 estudios que incluyen cerca de 10.000 casos de niños con esta enfermedad y más de un millón como grupo control.

Para evitar la duda de una posible influencia de otros factores de riesgo descartaron el peso al nacer, la edad materna, el orden de nacimiento, la diabetes gestacional y el tipo de alimentación.

El motivo de la revisión es la búsqueda de las causas que expliquen el aumento de casos de niños con diabetes tipo 1 que, según los autores, han evolucionado en paralelo al aumento de nacimientos por cesárea.

Centrándonos en nuestro país, España, en los últimos diez años los casos de diabetes tipo 1 han aumentando entre un 15% y un 30% y las cesáreas han pasado de un 18,2% a un 25′2%, lejos del 15% que la OMS considera aceptable.

Una posible explicación sería la ofrecida por Chris Patterson:

La diabetes tipo 1 ocurre cuando el sistema inmunológico destruye las células productoras de insulina del páncreas. Una hipótesis sugiere que nacer por cesárea puede afectar al desarrollo del sistema inmune porque los bebés se exponen antes a las bacterias del ambiente en el hospital que a las bacterias maternas.

Los investigadores añaden que es preciso realizar estudios específicos para conocer el mecanismo biológico que podría explicar la relación entre cesárea y diabetes.

Hasta que se aclare esta relación comentan que no tiene sentido eludir una cesárea para evitar el riesgo de diabetes tipo 1 aunque sí deberían limitarse aquellos en que la intervención no es estrictamente necesaria. Diversos estudios realizados en países occidentales confirman que muchos partos acaban por cesárea por razones de organización o comodidad.

What fun!! And for an extremely good cause.

I didn't want to oversleep so I actually only catnapped last night. I could have used my alarm clock but I haven't set it for nearly 2 years.. since I retired.  So I tossed and turned, LOL, instead.  Up at 6am, showered, packed important items (insurance card, emergency phone numbers, small amount of cash) in an around the neck type card holder wallet thingy. Took extra caution with my feet, putting a bandaid on the back of my problem heal. Dressed in warm sweatlike pants and top and headed out at 7:15am.  Sign in started at 7:30 and the walk started at 8:30am.

The organizers deserve a "well done" for a super organized event. EVERYTHING went smoothly. From the short time spent at the sign-in table, to the clearly marked signs throughout the Detroit Zoo to controlling the flow of handouts of sponsor freebies. 

Speaking of freebies... there were so many, too many to mention. In addition to healthy snacks, several companies provided diabetes-related products. I collected two bags full of stuff. One for me and one for hubby, who wasn't able to walk with me... next time, he said.

There were people of all ages participating. From cute babies to some folks, I am guessing, older than me.  My eyeballs were taking it all in. People watching. A group dressed in witch costumes were delightful as were a group of sliders, at least I think that was what their t-shirts read. Or maybe it was gliders. They walked with those stick thingys that look like ski poles.  Kind of neat how they walked synchronized. Must have been walking together for some time.

Before and after the walk, we relaxed under a huge white tent. A DJ from one of the local radio stations entertained and encouraged people to dance. And boy did they. A favorite. Line dancing. I knew the steps but was too chicken to strut my stuff in front of strangers. :D

I have to tell you, I was proud of walking the full 2 miles without stopping to rest. I started off slow, picked up some speed, then slow again. I stayed in the middle of the pack the whole way.  The zoo animals were an added attraction though I just glanced at them as I walked.  I saw a tiger, lion, family of kangaroos, monkeys plus lots of other animals I can't remember now.

I checked my feet after returning home and again several hours ago. No blisters. Yippee!! I didn't wear socks, just knee highs.  So I hope they will provide a little bit of protection when do more walking. I just HATE socks!!

In all, I walked 3 miles today. Don't tell my foot doctor!!

La stevia, la planta que las multinacionales de los edulcorantes pretenden ocultar (14 horas, Sala 1), junto a Josep Pàmies, productor y líder del Convivium Slow Food de Balaguer. En esta ocasión, la asociación española presentará el manifiesto en apoyo de la stevia. Los extractos de esta planta, originaria de Paraguay, tienen un poder endulzante 200 veces superior al del azúcar, pese a no proporcionar ninguna caloría ni alterar los niveles de glucosa en sangre. Actualmente, una vez verificados los efectos de la planta en el hombre, la FAO y la OMS han introducido la stevia en una lista momentánea de comercialización, a la espera de su inclusión definitiva en el Codex Alimentarius. Sus extractos, utilizados desde hace siglos por los indígenas sudamericanos y muy extendidos en Japón, pueden adquirirse sólo en herbolarios de Estados Unidos, mientras que en Europa, excepto en algunos países, no se admite su venta. La comercialización de la planta determinaría un contragolpe significativo a la industria de los endulzantes, dominada por los productores de azúcar y de otros edulcorantes sintéticos.
La historia, las características y los usos de la stevia en la cocina ocuparán el lugar central de un Laboratorio del gusto durante el próximo Salone Internazionale del Gusto, en Turín del 23 al 27 de octubre. Durante esos mismos días, en la tercera edición de Terra Madre, cocineros y productores de stevia de Paraguay podrán debatir sobre las posibilidades de comercialización de este edulcorante.

Diabetes Management

As of 2007, there is no cure for either type 1 or type 2
diabetes. This may seem like a dim outlook for many people,
but the fact is that even though there is no cure, there
certainly are ways to manage your diabetes.
Proper management can give you many years of healthy
living.

Diabetes management starts with a visit to your doctor.
first, finding out you have diabetes, what type you have
then arming yourself with as much information as possible
about the diabetes you are diagnosed with.

All management begins with controlling the glucose cycle.

The glucose cycle is affected by two factors, entry of
glucose into the bloodstream and blood levels of insulin to
control the transport out.

Your glucose levels are very sensitive to both diet and
exercise, so change in either should first be discussed
with your physician. Proper management of diabetes can be
very intrusive to the patient.

Proper management requires a complete lifestyle change and
frequent, sometimes multi-daily checks of glucose in the
blood.

It can change as people grow and develop and no two cases
are ever really the same. Today it is easier to measure the
blood sugar level.

Glucose meters are readily available and are quite easy to
use with a little practice and patience.

With a small drop of blood to the testing strip attached to
the glucose meter, the user is given the number, which
represents their blood sugar level. This in turn will let
the user know if and when insulin is needed.

 It is not only the human kind that can develop diabetes.
Even our beloved pets, no matter how well we care for them,
can develop diabetes.
This is often a scary situation for the pet owner and the
first question that is usually asked of the veterinarian is
-will my pet need to be put to sleep-

Of course this is a difficult issue and the answer may vary
on the overall age and health of your pet.

Many older pets that are diagnosed with diabetes go on to
live many more happy years, but this takes commitment and
close care of your pet.

Diabetic cats and dogs can live just as long as perfectly
healthy pet if the diabetes is diagnosed and treated
properly by both the veterinarian and the owner.

This takes great commitment from the owner. Pets must be
cared for and watched daily with a high level of care and
patience.

There can be no feeding the cat and forgetting until the
next day. There is no leaving the pet along to go on a
trip. Every day your pet will need medication, fed a proper
diet and his behavior will need to be monitored closely.

This doesn’t mean you will have to give up your job and
stay home full time with your pet, but it does mean you
will have to pay more attention to what his behavior is and
know what to do if the situation should change.

It is also more of a financial obligation to have a sick
pet. So it is something that should be discussed in length
with your vet.

Diabetes In Children                      

 Diabetes in children is also known as juvenile diabetes,
but more commonly known as type 1 diabetes. It is the most
common form of diabetes in children with ninety to
ninety-five percent of carriers being under 16.
Juvenile diabetes is caused by the inability of the
pancreas to produce insulin. It is an autoimmune disease,
which means the bodies own defense system attacks the
body’s tissues or organs.

In the last 30 years the number of juvenile diabetes had
increased three times over and in Europe and the US we are
now seeing type 2 diabetes in children for the first time.

Obesity easily explains type 2, but not why there is such a
rise in type 1 diabetes in children. It is believed that a
mixture of genetics and environmental factors are what
triggers juvenile diabetes. But the majority of children
don’t have a family history of diabetes.

The symptoms for juvenile diabetes are the same as in
adults. Thirst, weight loss, fatigue, frequent urination is
typical, but diabetes in children can also increase stomach
pains, headaches and behavior problems.

Doctors should consider the possibility of diabetes in
children who have unexplained stomach pains for a few
weeks, along with the typical symptoms.

If you believe your child may be experiencing these
symptoms you should schedule them for a thorough
examination and tell your doctor what you suspect your
child may have. Be sure to tell them about any and all
symptoms your child may be experiencing.

 After reading our Articles all we ask is can you please see this video?

Diabetes Epidemic

With obesity levels being at an all time high, the epidemic
of type 2 diabetes is growing at an alarming rate, and will
only get worse.
Between 2001 and 2002, the diagnosis of diabetes went from
5.5 percent of Americans to an alarming 6.5 percent. In
just one year!

Overall, twelve million Americans have been diagnosed and
another 5 million Americans have diabetes and don’t know
it. And yet another 12 millions are on their way to type 2
diabetes because of impaired glucose levels.

Not knowing is the worst because risks of untreated
diabetes puts us at a terrible risk of complications
including but not limited to blindness, amputations and
ultimately death.

The stickler is, that type 2 diabetes is almost completely
preventable. Doctor’s say eat less, eat better and
exercise. The numbers show just how many Americans are
currently overweight.

Statistically, people are now living longer, and it has
been on the rise for years. But this will not continue if
type 2 diabetes is not put under control.

We are a gluttonous society and ultimately it is affecting
how we live and how long we live.

And unfortunately, the diabetes epidemic is not just a US
problem. It is spreading worldwide with epidemic reports in
Asia, the Middle East and the Caribbean.

It is estimated that by 2025, the number of diabetics
worldwide will rise to 380 million. And diabetes is now
affecting more of the young and middle-aged population in
developing countries between the ages of 40 and 59.

Diabetes

Diabetes is a growing problem in this country. With our
population at an all time high in weight gain and a low in
health care, the problem is only growing.
Diabetes is a disease of the metabolism. Our metabolism is
what the way our bodies use digested food for energy and
growth.

Most food that is processed through our bodies is broken
down by digestive juices into a sugar called glucose.
Glucose is the fuel our bodies run on.

When we eat, and our food is processed, the pancreas is
supposed to produce the right amount of glucose from our
blood automatically and release the right amount of insulin
into our blood.

In people with diabetes, little to no insulin is produced
or the body’s cells don’t respond correctly to the insulin
that is produced. Therefore the glucose builds up and
overflows into the urine and passes out of the body.

This is how the body loses its main source of fuel even
though the bloodstream contains good amounts of the natural
glucose.

There are three types of diabetes, type 1, type 2 and
gestational diabetes. People who have type 1 are known as
insulin-dependent.

This is an autoimmune disease where the body’s natural
system is fighting against another part of the body. In the
case of type 1 diabetes, the system attacks the insulin
producing cells and destroys them.

Therefore the pancreas can produce little to no insulin.
These people are in need of daily injections of insulin to
live. Five to ten percent of diabetes cases are type 1 in
the US.

Yes, perhaps only an RD2B would think about such things as their daily carbohydrate consumption, but today's intake was pretty hilarious. Let's start from the beginning (I'll underline the carb sources to help you out:

Breakfast: 8 pancakes, chocolate milk, soy sausage patty, margarine, sugar-free syrup (maybe that will balance it all?)

Lunch: clementine, big slab of cake and chocolate milk

Dinner: half caesar salad, chips and spinach dip

Dessert: frozen yogurt with reeses pieces and brownie chunks

We aren't even going to think more about this. However, I did go for a walk this morning, got my exercise in. And I didn't actually intend on eating all 8 pancakes, but they seemed to be calling my name.

And really, none of this shouldn't matter, because I don't have diabetes! I swear, working in a teaching hospital has turned me into more of a hypochondriac than I ever was...
