Lab Tests Result

Fasting Blood Sugar – 119 mg/dl
Cholesterol – 181

Sabi ng machine techs, my sugar is already high and am already into the house of Diabitis.

My cholestero is not bad – it’s still normal. I haven’t had any food since 5 pm yesterday and water since 6:30 yesterday but when I had my sugar result – I just can’t get myself to eat at breakfast this morning. hehehehe Last year, I had FBS too and my result was just 75 and now it is like it caught me by surprise. I was alreadydoubting, but yet seeing the real number – it made me weak.

Well, I really have to cut half or more my rice servings and at least eat rice twice or once a day. One friend said today, your sugar is in your love handles. I just laugh but it’s true. Got a long way to go to erase this love handles.

I can remember the words one of my college teachers told me last Sunday, he said, if I won’t take care of my weight, I got only 5 more years to go without ailments or diseases.

I bet he is right. So wish me luck guys that I should be serious about my weight loss.

health, it happened to me, life

I still want to post more because I got 2 in mind pending (the hot male tag and also the photo tag) but I have to go to bed before my hunger pangs will get worst. Am on a diet from 6 pm earlier til tomorrow for an FBS and Lipid Profile tests early tomorrow morning. I set my alarm to wake me up at 4:30 and I hope at 5AM I won’t be scared to go to the hospital. Please wish me luck — hope everything is still under the control. The last time I had my FBS was in July last year and it was still normal. I was not yet that big too. Now that I have bloated big – am really wondering.

Wish everyone, goodnite!

1. Have you tried running far away from home alone? How does it feel?
Never tried. But planned for it and changed my mind because I know wherever i go, my parents can find me. I was on the 5th grade that time.

2. Who or what is most beautiful to you?
Someone who a good person inside and out. Though physical appearance is a must, but nothing beats character.

3. You are still sleeping and suddenly someone wakes you up. What would be your first reaction? I’d ask “what?” Then my heart palpitates. hehehehe

4. What’s your significant other/partner/husband/wife calls you? And what do you call him/her? He calls me mahal, love, honey, sweetheart, and dear and even dear. I call him “honey” most of the time.

5. Someone is knocking at your car window, and you see a little girl selling fruits for $1. Are you going to buy one or just ignore her? Please be honest.
On a moving car? No. I won’t open and won’t buy. I dunnoif it happens in other countries, maybe I would but in the Philippines – it can’t be. It depends on the fruit I will buy. If I can’t buy, I’d give her sth to eat maybe a pc of candy or sweet.

6. What time did you wake up today? Happy or Sad? past 6 in the morning. Mix.

7. Do you go to work everyday? Where?

One of my closest friends is into a very serious stage of depression. I knew about this only when I was already far from her — when I could not reach her anymore nor she can reach out to me anytime she want to. Well we still make calls but at times a “touch” means more than words to comfort a troubled mind. I did not know that she is into a serious trouble not until someone very close to her told me about it that it has started way back late 90′s and that I could not believe. I always believe that my friend is a happy person and that she and her hubby is my “ideal couple” that is why when the separate ways I just couldn’t believe it. i wish to know the deep truth but I am so far so information was limitted. She’s been into several doctors but none could get out what’s really wrong with her and what causes her depression. Three doctors in three different hospitals gave her some medicines to regulate her moods since that time that she became addicted to it. Just imagine, she can pop up 10 pcs or more of sleeping drugs to make her get to sleep. And she now takes anti-depressants not prescribed by the doctor. So she sort of addicted to these meds who she thinks gave her the “high” she needs. I did realize how the meds affected her the last time we met and bond in Cebu. She was not the cheerful girl or woman I knew before. There was much silence between us but I consier it a bit normal for anyone in her situation but it is abnormal if I really think back to the way we were when were still in our early 20′s. So my wish for real for her this time is drug rehabiliation in a place like this:

Not a small room where u can only see is white walls enclosing you and you are being secluded from the world. In my opinion – it seems it can cause more depression and the more one longs for the meds that makes her ok. I think it takes much effort and courage for an addicted person to be in a drug rehab to be detoxified. Early effects of detoxification can be a real test to one’s moods, but doctors and nurses in rehab centers makes drug treatment a pleasant one.I wish this institution is here in our country and I will surely recommend her to be treated there. Not just anyone with manic depression but those with with alcohol problems too they can be treated at their alcohol rehab. Thank God my cousin is not yet in deep trouble with alcohol but we have this place on our list incase things will get worst.

I made it to the Youth Congress Philippine Wide 2008! I almost missed it due to transportation thing. AT the last minute, the vehicle was not available but my spirit was up that I should go. Thanks to the Mayor, my mom allowed that I would go even it was already very late. I felt sorry for my other friends who were left behind. If I just had millions, even two thousand, I would bring you all to that get together even just for one day.

We arrived MVC at a little bit past 6 am and my it was cold. Hehehehe. It ws more than spring cold but I did love it!

Since the dormitory did not allow me to go into their bathroom for a bath, I was able to make it at Ma’am Carthy’s home and myyy she offered me (so embarassing) more than the bath I asked for. She offered me breakfast and also a bed to sleep an hour before I had the bath and then went out to the direction of the church with the aim in mind to mingle with friends. hahahaa. It’s Sabbath but going to church was the last thing on my mind.

I only stayed a day and a half there but I was able to met important people of my college days. I was able to bond with my college best friends (Helen & Maria Riza) pics will be posted later. I met up schoolmates and batchmates that I haven’t seen for a long long time or will never get to meet unless there’s a big gathering like the Youth Congress or Sabbath School Congress. I met up my teachers and wowwww they are so amazed of my size and I am so amaze because some of them become old which may mean am soon to get old too. LOL! My size has more tripled my college size and it really amazed them and it causes a buzz among my friends. hahaha. Hopefully next year or the next after next, I would be smaller. One teacher told me that I still 5 years to work out my health or else when I reach 40 – it’s either I die or be in a terrible disease. He is right. He is already old but still looks so lean and healthy.

So in all >> for my toot today >> I was able to bond with my college best friends. A thing we haven’t done since I graduated in October 1994 and left the campus in January 1995.

And by the way, I promised to meet them again next year – same place & date.

mommy community, Tuesday Toot

Sudden Horrible Thought

As i was going through the comments left for my first entry at Camera Critters the more I felt missing our lost kitty. Am sure that it was not long after I took this photo that golding miming got lost.

Before he (the yellow one) got lost, weeks back, we also lost 1 of his siblings we really do not have an idea why they are gone and where have they gone. Then suddenly I just thought that a big bad kitty have drag these kitties out of our front lawn and then brought them to secluded places and killed them. I can imagine they are screaming (meaowing) for help. As i said i hate cats but because of these critters i was made to realize that indeed they are also lovable or pettable (what a word!) not just dogs. These kitties meaows so loud that you can’t help to give them your attention. When they were stillyounger, once the front door opens, they like to sneak inside. Now that they have become bigger, they usually spend time at our back door area and meaow so loud when they are hungry – thinking that everytime we go out we are carrying food. It seems I have a way of talking out with them. I talk with them like they are also persons and they look up to my eyes and sort of telling me they understood. hehehehe

Ohhh i miss them. My heart starts to palpate when i imagined they are screaming for help because some bad men are beating him and killed him. huhuhu

life, random thoughts
