Yesterday I went to my rheumatologist for my monthly check up and found I lost 10 lbs, my bp was 134/74, my blood sugar was 150, but my liver numbers were slightly elevated. So it has only been 3 weeks since my serious decision to become Vegan, (Father Inspired version, meaning totally nuts), and I am already seeing signs to improvement. Weight down, BP slightly down, sugar way down (was 270 last time), and liver number slightly down as well. My father says I won't see real results for 3 to 5 more weeks, but I just plain feel better and stronger. I have more energy and want to be more active, although my feet still hurt.
Some of that could be that I am off Prendisone (sp) , but I will take it. I really need to loose weight in droves, so am pushing the biking hard for the next few weeks. Hope the weather holds.
I am riding with my daughter in law, Stephanie today on the airline trail after riding last night. I hope my legs hold out. I feel a bit stiff but good to go. I have not pain to speak of and am looking to ride hardish today.
Need to stay the course, and think positive!
Until next time...T out
