good luck with the treadmill. I've been wanting to get a treadclimber for ages, but a combination of price & having no clue where I'd put it keeps stopping me.

was this the first bad blood work, or have you been diagnosed as pre-diabetic?

and even more good luck with cutting back on the carbs. especially the bread. I miss bread, and that's one reason I've stopped making it (i read your bread-making posts with envy).
