I must say that with all the hardships that I have gone through in my lifetime, nothing could compare to the last part of 2009. Health-wise, 2009 was one of my lowest years. My diabetes got worse due to my own doing. I also got my anemia back. Last time I had it was in high school, 28 years ago. Then, the latter part of the year, I underwent major surgery.
Although 2009 was full of health issues for me, it was also the year to celebrate something. I lost 50 lbs! Yeah...I guess I should celebrate right? Well, not too fast. Reason why I lost weight was because I got sick. Having new doctors (1 for general health and 1 for women's health) was a godsend. The two female doctors are like peas in a pod. They were caring and explained to me that if I do not take care of myself, I'll be in deep doodad. Well, pardon my French. So, I started dieting, exercising and eating healthy. I was more active than years before. No more sedentary lifestyle for me. The result-- my blood sugar dropped tremendously, my iron level improved and even my asthma has gotten better. By the time I was going to undergo surgery in December, I was in the top form of health in 17 years. I looked and felt great!
This New Year, I intend to keep my weight stable. My blood sugar level should be at a stable level too. I need to work on losing more weight. I need to be healthier. So, 2010 I should be better than I ever was when it comes to health. As far as other things...I will continue to hone my craft and be the best that I can be.
Happy New Year and Good Luck to me!
