My first Kitchen Vlog of 2024

[@angelasheppard7197]

Glad to see you back.Careful with this med. Watch for those side effects.good luck

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks Angela. I had some side effects from the Metformin last year; so I stopped taking it. So far the Januvia has caused no side effects at all. -Dennis

[@madamem7856]

Happy New Year Dennis! Glad to hear you're doing reasonably well and taking steps to make some further improvements in your health! I continue to enjoy your blog & vlogs. The pink shirt looks sharp! 👍

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks Mea. That pink shirt took a long time to tailor, but I'm pleased with it. Hopefully this will be a good year for doing cooking videos and vlog videos. -Dennis

[@taylorkidd8685]

Thanks for the updates, Dennis. Had been thinking about you!

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks Taylor. I appreciate knowing that. -Dennis

[@nancymandle5215]

hi dennis - sounded from your blogs that you are having a lot of fun with your Quest thingie - i loved how you described “playing golf” with it while trying not to bump into the furniture. Sounds like this would make an excellent topic for a youtube video!!!!!!

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Giggle, giggle Nancy. You called it. I've been thinking of wearing the headset as I walk into the kitchen to start shooting a vlog video. And, yes, I've been having loads of fun while playing mini golf. I'm trying to hook up with a friend in Kentucky to play a round online with him and his wife.-Dennis

What a fantastic idea Dennis re healthy diabetic friendly meals on video. Glad to hear you are making positive progress re your health issues. Cheers to 2024. Go Trump🥂😎

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks. I wasn't sure how to feel about doing diabetic friendly cooking videos. You've encouraged me. I'll keep looking into those books. -Dennis

[@50hellkat2]

@@MyKitchenVlog I feel like the diabetic diet videos could educate and inspire us all.

Good habits for losing weight: do not eat breakfast until you feel hunger pains then wait a little longer. Eat only whole not refined foods, stop eating completely by 6-7 pm. Finally, walk at any pace you’re comfortable with for 3-4 miles per day. As for how much food to eat, eat as much as you want as long as it’s unrefined and hopefully organic. Seafood should be wild caught only and small amounts of grass fed meats. It’s also a great idea to not eat any dairy. Add extra virgin olive oil to everything you can think of and don’t forget to use turmeric powder with back pepper everyday. Only drink teas or fresh ground black coffee lightly steeped in less than boiling water…no adding anything else to these drinks!

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks Richard. Some good advice there. I look forward to digging deeper into those two books I started reading, mostly to find some healthy and delicious recipes. -Dennis

[@jcboom6894]

Thanks for the book titles. I am going to get them. I am pre-diabetic and do not want to fall over into the diabetic area. It makes sense that the diets for the younger folks do not work for our slowed down metabolisms.

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks for the comment. I hope the books help you. I wish I had paid more attention when I was pre-diabetic. I checked my blood sugar about an hour ago and it's going down. I feel encouraged. -Dennis

Oy to the Vey. Getting old sucks rotted gopher ova.

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Thanks Auntie. My twin brother likes to say, "These golden years are not as golden as we were taught to believe." -Dennis

[@offthewalla4717]

Glad you've got a plan to get the diabetes under control. I've been type II. for about 10 years now and am currently on Ozempic to get the A1c under control. Currently at 5.6 and glucose of 115. Yay me! Oh dear God don't let Trumpty Dumpty climb back on that wall again!!!! I can't handle the drama with that crook. 'Nuff said....

[@MyKitchenVlog]

Congratulations on the 5.6. You're in the safe zone. It's encouraging to me to learn you've been managing your type 2 for ten years. Thank you for that. I am so hoping Trump won't win a second term. I anticipate this will be one of the most watched elections ever, both in terms of outcome and to make certain no one can claim fraud. -Dennis

[@mneff69]

You know it didnt cost that much to make them pills! Medicine,Dr.'s, and Insurance is such a scam! Those Amazon products that you don't like would make good give aways, plus get ppl to subscribe. Make rules you have to subscribe to channel and ppl see free drawings the would come in groves lol. Glad to see your okay its been a minute since ive seen a video from you. Trump 2024 sorry 😆 👍❤️✌️🙏🇺🇸

[@MyKitchenVlog]

I agree about the cost of medications. I believe one reason they are so expensive is the billions of dollars the pharmaceutical companies spend on advertising. And as for those unwanted giveaways, many were Christmas presents. Thanks for the comment. -Dennis
