I got the results back from the blood tests and it looks like I’ll be living life alcohol-free for the foreseeable future. Not because the alcohol has finally killed my liver or kidneys, but because my diabetes has apparently been out of control. The only reason I was able to kick the insulin dependency in the first place was by losing 150 lbs and getting down to the 240s, so it makes sense that I’d have issues back up in the 330s. It’s no biggie, though, as it just means that I just gotta get back to eating healthy, exercising daily and taking my Metformin (aka Glucophage) until things improve. The only downer is that drinking alcohol can be deadly while taking any diabetic medicine because it keeps your liver from releasing glucose into your blood, so if you ever have to deal with hypoglycemia it can be deadly because simply eating a banana won’t remedy it.

The good news is that I can still watch Harold & Kumar every now and then without any risk of immediate death. Also, one of Metformin’s side effects is that you lose your appetite and often lose weight, which is definitely a good thing. Not to mention, it apparently increases your desire to pay some fat black hooker $70 for a quicky in your car only to get your cash back after you kill her when it’s over. At least, that’s what I’m telling the judge if I’m ever caught. Oh, by the way, I hope to be so rich some day that I own a dragon that shits pizzas. Now that would be BOMB! If you don’t get the reference, then just watch some of the TV shows in your safe house in GTA IV. Hilarious shit.
