Fasting… literally.

Jeff,

Yup, fasted for 5 days straight. Kinda a combination thing. I was at a new job, and was at work from 6am to noon, then from 5pm to 2am. VERY little sleep, no time to eat. So, I did that for 5 days. Then, shortly after, I read somewhere that is the best way for a diabetic to lose weight. And, I DID! Lots of it. Stomach had gotten smaller from not having to stretch, and I was full in much less time/amount.

Nowadays, the Lantus will cover the basal needs, and there is really, in my case, no need for any Humalog if I am not eating.

By the way, this was in a REALLY hick place, and I could turn on the jukebox and dance while I mopped the floor. Exercise was a part of it, too. : ) (One of the songs on the jukebox was, “Were You Born an A–H—, or Have You Worked at it Your Whole Life?”) Humble beginnings.

I quit that one when one of the ‘ladies’ thought I was messin’ with a friend’s husband, and she was going to rearrange my face. I am not THAT tough! LOL People were NUTS.

Any other regretful jobs?

Joan
