Back when I started this Medical Makeover w/ Hippocrates Health I met Dr. Amy at Conway Regional for a series of blood draws that were sent off to labs around the country, this NutrEval FMV® is just one of the tests that she ran. Unlike any other nutritional assessments, NutrEval FMV® provides a framework of […]
My Specialized Sirrus Hybrid Road Bike
When I was diagnosed w/ Diabetes almost two years ago I made up my mind then that I was going to do something about it, and believe it or not I was determined. Well, things happen. For instance, I started walking a little bit and I got sores on my feet and in between my […]
EP:027 – The Cotton Club Podcast
It felt really weird dusting off the microphone this evening to do a podcast, it’s been a long time since I’ve done one of these (April 2013), so I’m a little rusty, and let me apologize in advance for the quality, apparently I should have mic’d everyone instead of using a table mic that we […]

Dietary Changes & Results from Bloodwork…
This past Thursday I met Dr. Amy from Hippocrates at Conway Regional to undergo a series of tests, basically we sent like 50 vials of my blood around the world. While there are some tests we don’t have the results back from yet, such as the Nutreval, we did get some results back from Conway […]
My Favorite Diabetes App: Glooko
I get a lot of questions regarding how I track and report my blood sugar readings so I figured I would do a post on Glooko, the best app I’ve ran into for diabetics. Going into my upcoming “medical makeover” w/ Hippocrates Health that I blogged about last week, this has been one of the […]
I’m Doing a “Medical Makeover” w/ Dr. Amy Beard & Hippocrates Health!
I could not be more excited. My good friend, Dr. Amy Beard (who I grew up with) owns Hippocrates Health & Wellness. Well, she dropped by last night and presented me with an incredible opportunity that I could not turn down. It’s no great secret that I’ve been dealing w/ Diabetes for the past 2 […]
Diabetes Sucks, but I’m Winning!
So, last week I regained feeling in both of my feet, something that had been a constant issue for me since December of last year because of Neuropathy. I haven’t been doing anything special really, just eating less and more often during the day, keeping my levels around 110-130. My vision issues have also subsided […]
25th Annual Diabetes Alert Day
As I’m sure many of you that I’m friends with on Facebook & Twitter are already aware, I was diagnosed w/ Type II Adult Onset Diabetes back in December. A week in the hospital is a heck of a gift for your 40th birthday huh? It actually goes a lot deeper than that, not only […]
My Pancreas Hates Me…
I just sat down and ordered myself one of those diabetic bracelets a few minutes ago. This might not sound like a big deal, and you might even ask yourself why I haven’t already done this, after all I was diagnosed back in December of last year. You see, for me I’ve been looking at […]
