I have come to the conclusion that it would be really nice to keep my A1C at the level it was when it was last checked: 6.7. However, at the moment I really think it is a lot higher then the wonderful number of 6.7.

The last time I checked my A1C was last summer, because there is no Barbara Davis Center here in Mexico.The summer is approaching fast, and I’d really love to have a wonderful A1C, and not to mention excellent health. So I have compiled a to-do list for the next month or so, in order to have a wonderful A1C.

1. No sugar drinks (soda, etc.) In Mexico, they love their Aguas de frutas, or fruit drinks, which have a ton of sugar. I like these, well, I love these, but no more.

2. Three solid meals a day.

3. No snacking.

4. Bolus for everything. I’m rather bad at this, so I really need to REMEMBER to bolus.

5. Regular exercise.

Yup. Stick to the rules, Claire.
