I Talked to Joella last week and she was excited because her weight had come down to 179 pounds. She got her Social Security last Wednesday....when I talked to her today she was up to 186 but had lost a pound since yesterday.
I don't know the solution to her problem. We talk on the phone (I'm in Tn. and she's in Fl.) and go over what kind of foods and when she should be eating but it doesn't seem to make much difference.
She taking a course at the YMCA in the gym and said her instructor has her making a list of everything she eats....funny the Doctor can't get her to log her blood glucose readings or what she eats and when she eats, but the girl at the gym is getting a food list. Since she goes to the gym three times a week, I guess it is the personal attention from someone other than family that matters. It still comes down to this one phrase: YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.
Here is a link to Bob's information about his glycemic index diet. Wish Joella would join him!
