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!!!

Icing on the cake...

I decided that since I didn't walk for two days and I won't be walking tomorrow (well, not an official walk-for-5-miles walk), it would be a good idea to walk a little extra. So, I walked the two miles south and then my usual 5 miles north. It was a crazy weather day temperature-wise. It was cool this morning at 60. At noon it was just 70 and still felt like in the 60's. By the time I started my walk at 5:40 pm, it felt like it wa 85!!! The sun was hot. As the time went on, though, I could feel it cool back down again. Now, it is 64 at 11 pm. Warmer than last night but still a cool evening/night temp.

Tomorrow is a day at WDW. We are going to Animal Kingdom first and then Hollywood Studios for dinner and maybe a ride or two. So, I will be walking just not my usual pace. Still, the steps will count in the fight against getting old!

I cannot believe that I didn't post my walk on Saturday! Geez!!! Well, I know I walked because I remember walking out the back door as Kent and KJ were putting mulch in the backyard.

Today's walk was a fast one. It is about 65 degrees this afternoon and just right for a good push in the "step-it-up-a-notch" department. I was very happy to be below one-nine. As the weather warms up, I know I will have to push myself to keep up with the 1:15 again. The summer/fall heat is a killer down here in FL!
