Wake up Call

Okay, wake up call at the doctors today. I went in thinking I had a UTI. Well, according to my test I don't but according to my symptoms I may have. He's going to send the culture to another lab to be tested more extensively. Here's the wake up call though. He took bloodwork to test my blood sugar because my urinating alot is also a sign of diabetes. Okay, he didn't go into details but I know enough that when he does say that he's testing for sugar what it could mean. I'm going to be on edge until the results come back. Diabetes is one of my strongest fears. Jason doesn't understand why I'm so on edge. It's okay. HE's probably right and I'm overreacting. I know if I do that I can control it with diet and exercise and you know that is exactly what i'm going to do. NO more stupid choices of eating out at the wrong places. NO more slacking. I am going to do this. Grandma is letting me sleep at night again so I'm going to have time during the day to exercise. No excuse for me not to eat right. If I have to eat out, then Subway it shall be whether I like it or not. Dieting constitutes sacrifices and I will make them. I am going to change my outlook and my way of thinking. No more excuses and no more wasted days.
