I'm feeling a bit more educated this morning and it's all one more nail in the coffin for the CICO argument. Some slight compensation for being up on the scale this morning as a result.

Hope your ankle is well. I attended a school where I was poorly treated last semester, it was awful for me to keep going. I was having glucose test several times a day and watched my blood sugar levels increasing daily. I went to the dr who told me I was probably becoming diabetic. My nurse friend who works in diabetes research said I was dumping sugar into my blood from the stress. I finally dropped the school and my blood sugar went back to normal.
