Countdown Update...13 days left to go!

Turns out the giddy anticipation and weary dread was actually a combination of swine flu and my diabetes tipping.

I thought I lost 11 lbs in 11 days but I actually miscalculated. I've lost 15 lbs in 12 days and I'm over the flu but the diabetes is still tipped and I'm still working on getting it back down to a normal level. How can it be so high when you have to force yourself to eat AND you make sure your sugar intake is low low low? And I drink water like it's any kind of alcohol and my name is Oliver Reed. But it's still too high. Jeesh...another unsolved mystery to keep me busy.
