Friday Eve

Friday Eve, that's Thursday on the calender.  Tomorrow's the big day to usher in the weekend and Tony's night and his blessed margaritas.  Some may regard that as a bit of a blasphemy, but I feel so much better after my usual two of them.

My Numbers for Friday Eve.

• Fasting Blood Glucose:  98 mg/dl.  Schwing!
• Weight:  189 lbs.  Still there.
• Exercise:  45 minutes on the bike.  Good ride.
• Mood:  8.0.  Pizza night tonight and Tony's tomorrow. What could be better?

 The Menu:

• Breakfast:  Banana, Texas Ruby Red grapefruit, oatmeal infused with blueberry herbal tea and chopped apricots and prunes. 
• Lunch:  A Veggie Delite sandwich at Subway.
• Dinner:  Pizza, one slice, and two glasses of wine. 
• Snacks:  A can of V8 (two servings of vegetables and all of the salt needed for a week) and a handful of Triscuits. 

And You Thought It Was Just Good in Cookies.
Cinnamon may be good for people with type 2 diabetics.  It may not cure it, but it can help stabilize a patients blood sugar according to some research, and provided the patient takes enough of it daily.  That amount would be about a teaspoon daily..  There are worse dietary supplements.  Hey, it it makes oatmeal and bran muffins taste good.  My guess is that in combination with a sensible diet and exercise, it does help, as most dietary supplements would do.
