I am losing weight but I haven't really gotten into or on a diet or nutrition goals regimen yet. It has been more stress related weight loss, illnesses ongoing and still adjusting to my new temporary dentures. But I'll take the loss as it comes.

I, on Friday, spoke to a dietary guide from a local medical group organization that assists seniors who have been recently hospitalized. Their goals are to keep seniors from returning to the hospital by aiding with outside needs that can keep the senior from relapsing.

So the nutritionist is sending me hard copy dietary aids for people like me, overweight and with type 2 diabetes. Also she is putting me in contact with counseling.

My doctor had also given me instructions on decreasing some of my insulin shots since my weight loss based on some side effects I had been having. So far the reduction seems to be helping / working! What a struggle, isn't it?!

Such is life.

The 356 weight I posted yesterday was actually what they had given me when I was in hospital last week. I weighed this morning and on my home digital scale I was 351.0.

Two things that have affected my weight of course was the trip to hospital and eating differently there but the major issue is that two weeks ago I had 10 upper teeth extracted over a 2 day period and new temporary dentures fitted that I can't eat any hard food with.

So between being less hungry because of the dental work trauma and then getting sepsis and a super UTI that put me in hospital for four days it hasn't been hard to drop some weight. That and even before all the teeth and health issues I had been trying to substitute at least one meal a day with an Ensure diabetic drink. That has helped with lowering my Blood Sugars.

Thanks to everyone who gave me high fives on my success! I do hope to keep the trend going. I do also hope to be able to eat some more solid foods at some point like al dente vegetables and some baked fish or ceviche.
