Album Review: Y'anna Crowley

The Season Two winner of BET's hit gospel sing-off competition Sunday's Best winner Y'anna Crowley
released her debut album The Promise today, Tuesday August 24th.
Beautifully writter and perfectly arranged Y'anna's debut album is sure to be a blessing to music lovers young and old.
Her vocal styling is pure joy. The elegant runs, serious squalls, and her slight vibrato makes me smile from ear to ear.
Pick this album up!! Trust me, you will enjoy it!
My favorites from the release are: "You're still God" "Well done", "Stronger" and "Looking toward heaven"

Be blessed!

Praise Report

Happy Saturday folks!
I have AWESOME news to share. I had my first check-in for the '10 with my Endocrinologist (Diabetes Doc) yesterday, and I must say, it was the best check-in I have ever had. I started out by getting weighed, and I've lost some weight, Yay! Then I went over my medication update with him, he uploaded my Glucose meter into their system to chart my levels for the last 3 months, and finally he administered my 3 month A1C test (This test measures the level of sugar in your blood over the last 3 months) Normal A1C should be at a 6 or below.
When I was diagnosed in June of '09 my A1c was 11.8! (Just AWFUL) My last appointment was in October of '09, and my A1C was a 7.4.
After waiting what seemed like forever (10 minutes) I received my results. My A1C had dropped again to a 6.2!! WHOOP-WHOOP!! I literally jumped for joy in the doctors office. My doctor was impressed with how fast I was able to get my numbers down with medication, exercise(very little on my part), and diet changes.
After a review of my numbers, my doctor thought that I would be able to maintain healthy blood sugar levels with out the help of medications! (Over the past week, I refrained from taking my medication to see what my levels were without it and they were normal. I let my doctor know what I thought, and the results, and thought I had done a great job. At this time, I do have to monitor my levels, but only 3 times a week vs 3 times a day. My doctor did write a prescription for me, just in case my levels get out of wack.
Take that Diabetes!! I am excited about my news, but I know that this is where the real work starts. Without the meds, I will have to really watch what I eat, and exercise much more (my least favorite thing in the world) and remember to keep stress at bay.

Laters!

Praise Report

TGIF Folks!!
This week was draining.. Straight -up awful! But, (ya'll know there will be a but) I've got a praise report that makes all that other mess go away.
I had a follow-up with my Endocrinologist about new a medication, I have been placed on, to see how its working and to do my quarterly A1c test. Well..... Things are looking good. Why you ask?1. I lost 2 pounds.. THANK YOU JESUS! In my world, even the small victories are loved. 2. I lowered my A1C (an average of my blood glucose over the last 3 months) 4 points. Normal A1C glucose readings are between 6.5-7, when I was diagnosed in June was was dangerously high at 11.5. Finally, My doctor let me know that he could tell, I was working my hardest to get healthy. He also stated that my lifestyle and diet changes, have played the biggest role in me staying on track with kicking Diabetes in the butt.

What a great start to my weekend!
