Livin’ Large w. T2D

By coach Bobb

I used to live really large. Then I became XXL. It was OK for a while. Being fat and happy. That was the best, until I was fat and unhappy.

Then fat and miserable- sailing right into the Diabetic storm. Now?

I’m thankful to be alive. And happy to have gotten rid of most of the diabetic baggage that most people accumulate and never get rid of.

You may say that I am cheating.

I’m going to eat a big meal with some carbs in it.

Who am I?

I’m nobody. And I love being nobody.

And I’m gonna enjoy the crap out of this meal. Seriously. It is absolute joy. And I ordered a side protein- Grouper. A type of fish I never ate before.

And I told them to put it on the side, cook it whatever way they want, as long as there is no breading.

I’m so intensely anticipating this meal.

it has strawberries in it. And a soy sesame vinaigrette that is to die for.

I eat it because it contains Omega 3s. And I ignore the carbs. This meal is something I would never even thought I would like, much less something I look forward to all week.

cucumber, romaine, avocado, tuna steak, strawberries, grape tomatoes, cilantro, sesame seeds, and spices.

If this is health food? Sign me up. I drove 26 miles each way for this.

I’m spoiled.

I’m supposed to be dead.

And food like this, while it will knock me out of ketosis, it will provide my cells with nutrients I desperately desire.

So, I will snap a few pictures and devour this decadent, divine and delicious dinner.

who has it better than me?

Nobody.

I was a fool for a long time.

I only apologize to myself. And I do so with every food decision I make.
