Diabetes Sucks!!!

I don't like it! I don't want it! But I've got it! And once you have it, you always have it. But I can do something about it and that is what this blog is about. My journey to better health and wellness. Yes, for the rest of my life!!!

Off again

.
I took Tuesday and Wednesday off. I will be back on the pavement tomorrow. No specific reason, just time off...I did cook two full meals the last two days! Cooking can be the better half of an afternoon/evening! *sigh*
.
I am still watching what I eat and I noticed that I try for less carbs (potato, mac and cheese) and eat more meat plus a salad each dinner. Lunch is soup or some meat and cheese. I try to skip the bread slice. I like having tuna salad on a tomato. That's a good meal plus the kitties like the other half of the can that I give them!

Time off...now back on track..

Weight - 163.5 lbs.

FBS - 102

Good walk time for today. No problems with my legs. Great weather. I am relishing it.
.
My total for February was right on target. March will be an interesting month because with the Relay For Life I will have about 50 miles in the 18 hour walking. That will set me forward quite a bit. So, I haven't decided how to do the month as I am also wanting to do my "The Firm" exercise videos which are a replacement for the walks, not in addition to. And I want to go to Planet Fitness for some machine work.
.
I was happy with my FBS today. And I am not thinking anything negative about the weight. Well, I did lose a couple lbs from last week but since January, I have leveled off, basically. What I am noticing on a regular basis is the change in the way my clothes feel on me. And I also can notice some "shifting" of weight, too. That plateau is temporary and when I start to lose again, it will mean another pant size. Right now, I can wear the ones I was previously in at my heaviest but they are extremely loose - practically falling off! So, when I do start a trend downward again, it looks like I will have to break down and buy a couple of pairs of new jeans/slacks!!! *happy sigh*
