Yes, at 11:45 am I went out with my water bottle and a bite of granola bar and did the walk/run/3/2. I just returned at 12:58 and even though I am drenched in sweat, I feel soo good! Yes, that's "soo" with 2 "o's". Rhymes with "hoe". *evil grin*
.
I can definitely feel the power when it's there. What is there? The 3 D's...Determination, Dedication and Dominance of attitude. I have to will myself to be the best I can be sometimes. But, it can still be done. The distance can be run so-to-speak. And I also have learned more of my limitations. I'm not 20 anymore. Or even 30. But, in my better moments, I can do more and push myself more to go the distance. Now, that's attitude. That's amazing!

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!!!

Well, if I run 2 miles at a time, I won't hit my thousand for the year but in the big picture, it's about health and not particular numbers. I am trying to lose that last 10 lbs and I know that it will be more likely that I do it by running instead of walking, even if I do less mileage. The big thing to remember is not to injure myself.

Long time no exercise...

FBS (Monday) 108

Time sure slipped by me. Between all the hurricanes to deal with, leaks, birthdays, "stuff" happening, I took some time off. It was good, too. I gave my muscles a rest and they were ready for a great walk/run today outside in the morning heat. Not too hot...about 80 degrees. I even forgot my inhaler but I did fine. I also noticed that I dropped about 4 lbs. which is probably due to muscle loss from not going to the gym. I'll be starting back there, too.

I did the 5 mile walk/run in the evening. The weather here has been fairly unpredictable but I am trying to get out every chance I can. Still far away from my monthly goal but still walking as much as I can.

Hairspray Part 2
.
Wt. 158 lbs.
.
1:20:34
.
103/545/1,000
.
I forgot to do my FBS before I had my juice so I will try and take it tomorrow.
.
KJ and I went to PF this afternoon and I did a 10 minute mile on the elyptical plus upper body workout and abs. Then, I made lasagna when I got home so the guys could have a pasta dinner and then I left for a 5 mile walk...that is until a zap of lightning and then clap of thunder followed closely behind about 10 seconds after I walked out the door! I even checked the WFTV Radar Doppler 9 HD for the latest tracking and Oviedo wasn't shown as having showers nearby. GEEZ!!! So, I went upstairs and hopped on the treadmill for an hour + with about 3 miles of running as I finished watching the movie Hairspray. I really liked the music. John Travolta was a hoot!
.
So, now, I am eating my dinner...a big salad with egg, bacon bits, lots of veggies and .....yum..... Green Goddess dressing. I haven't seen that for years. I am avoiding the pasta and garlic cheese bread. I want to drop down into the 140's before the holidays!!!
