Tea for Two anyone?
So as I sit here drinking my tea(its called cinnamon orange herbal infusion) that I got from a tea shop in Levenworth, WA it quite good really....Mmmm its one of the few teas that I can drink "as is" and like it! Seriously its naturally sweet on its own! You have got to try it! *Sighs* so good. So anyways I was thinking about making monkey bread, and Jen(the nanny & best friend) took me by the shoulders and shook me me whilest saying "You have gots to stop baking!!" and mutters no wonder I get fat this time of year...lol I can't help it the rain makes me want to bake!! I did make bread from scratch on sunday and her favorite cookies yesterday...lol. Okie okie I agree I shouldnt bake it is danergous thing and besides i'm diabetic. Ironic isnt it? I had gestational diabeties, and my doctor said basically it was only a matter of time until I became diabetic. So what did I do? Having been denied all carbs and sugar for about 4-5 months due to me being gestational I went on a bender...that lasted several months...lol To the point where I gained almost all of the weight I lost due to me not being pregnant back. So that was a sobbering moment, I then tried to back off from it but it was around christmas time. So after I made a promise to myself to try and be more healthy. Around Feb. of this year I kicked it into high gear, diet and exercise, for months not muched happened. A few pounds dropped but not much results. So I went back to the doc, and guess what she said? Oh your diabetic she said after running some tests. So now I have been trying to control more what I eat. No drinks with sugar at all(except coffee). My A1c's are down to 5.8 and so far it looks like it is starting to go back to wear I wont have to take any pills. Woot! So I just got to keep it up, slowly but surley! One day at a time! So that means no I won't be making my monkey bread...trying to lose weight, not gain it...I sometimes get caught up in the moment of baking...
