Relentlessly Me

I have decided to do the things I think I cannot do.

Sugar Sugar, how'd ya get so hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh?

I had a Dr. Pepper with my lunch today because I was out of diet soda and water doesn't really go all that well with hot dogs and football, ya know? So, I checked my sugar after the game was over (Woo! GO BLUE!) and it was a whopping 247. Yikes! After two hours, it should not be that high. I certainly didn't enjoy that Dr.P enough for it to be so high, that is for sure. So, that certainly got me motivated. I strapped on the MDplayer and went for a nice walk around the apartment complex. It is such a beautiful day outside, especially after all the rain we have been having. I walked about 35 minutes total, which was not all that hard. As long as I have a little JT to rock to, I am okay. I checked my sugar when I got back and it was 90! Ha! So, yes, something as simple as walking really does make a difference. My doctor was right. Imagine that!

What have I learned? No regular soda! Walking is good. Michigan kicks ass.

Impressive lessons, no?

Reality/Virtual

I was futzing around at My Virtual Model. Sometimes, I like to get a wee taste of what I might look like without all the extra weight. It's like before/after without the work. *snerk*

Doctor, Doctor, gimme the news

I had my doctor's appointment this morning. It was not as traumatic as I expected it to be. Even though I fell off the wagon, down the mountain, over the cliff, I still managed to lose 6lbs since my last visit in May. Woo! At that rate, I'll be at my goal weight by the time I'm 40. *snerk* She seemed impressed though, so that is all that matters. *l* She wants me to buy one of those odometers and walk 10,000 steps a day, with every step I take counting. Um. I think it might be easier if I just took a walk at lunch or something. Also? Cheaper.

I checked my sugar for the first time in a long time last night and it was actually very good. I dunno. I think my body likes to fuck with me. Still, I am sure giving up Coca Cola has probably done a lot for my blood sugar issues. I miss it very much, so it better.
