On my holidays I went to see my doctor for a referral to Dr. Poon. He specializes in weight loss. It is also covered under OHIP. Honestly I did not think I would get in because previous blood work has came back fine with the exception of my iron levels. When I went to my first appointment they went over my blood test results. I was rather shocked, I am borderline diabetic, borderline high cholesterol and high triglycerides. Thankfully it was caught in time.
I am on a very strict diet. I thought it would be hard to follow but it has been pretty easy. The sugar withdrawal has not been so bad. I have been agitated easily and have experienced body aches. There where times where I just wanted to give in to the want for McDonald's or the double cheese pizza. When I stand on my scale at home and see how well I am doing I just can't go back. I do not want to deal with the health issues of a diabetic. I need to be healthy for my family.
Moving Forward to be healthy!
