Diabetes update and pic of slimmer me

Well, the good news is that according to the nurses at the Diabetes Center, my blood sugar levels are pretty much exactly where they should be. The bad news is, at least in terms of convenience, they say I shouldn't stop taking insulin until I overshoot and have too-low numbers, sigh. Looks like I get to deal with the extra hassle while in Seattle next week.

Here's a pic of me in October 2002, when I was around 250 lbs. And now, me today. Still not QUITE at 225 (I keep weighing in at 225.5), but I seem to have lost the weight in the right places. Oh, and I think I'm even wearing the same pants, which have always been baggy. :)

Update Jan 3: 224.5 lbs, woot!

ASH Attacktix: Col. Hendrick and STRAFE Trooper

Colonel Hendrick - Built from Captain Antilles, with arm reposed and helmet replaced with one from a Best Lock soldier. I don't think it was ever established Hendrick lost an eye to Burnout's attack, but I liked the look.

STRAFE Trooper - Built from Rebel Trooper, same helmet swap. I decided to name him Ray Lopez, and he's from Texas Sector. :)
