    My Peace

    Friday, November 20, 2009, 07:58 PM EST [General]

    Ok first i want to start by saying thanks to all for your comments it means alot to have every one on my side!

    But, please let me explain a little, this is the very first time ive ever tried to diet, because i was a very happy person with my weight and never seen a problem, i have a hubby who loves me and 2 great kids. So i ate how i choose, BUT when i found out i was a diabetic, i said ok maybe i should make a chance but for me not for anyone Else's reason.

    So this is all new to me and i learning and as far as im concerned i thought i was doing great, exercising and eatting how my diet dr told me with counting carbs..i was no worried about calories at all. i didnt think they mattered to the diet plan i was on.

    I started a food and exercise journal and just wrote everything down i ate and did in the gym, so when i went back to the drs she was Reading it and said thats not enough calories, or carbs and that i could be starving myself, which i am still so hungry but i just thought it was because i was eating much less then what i was use to ...let me tell you just 1 day would be like when i wasn't dieting ...

     a big bowl of fruity pebbles and milk, lunch would be sometimes a big mac and a dbl cheese burger lrg fry and a coke, supper i could eat up to 6 or 7 tacos then ill eating a whole bag a popcorn with butter.

    so now eating a salad and not getting full didn't seem to matter to me i just thought i was doing the right thing. but im starting to understand differently now.. it is just gonna take time to totally understand im still learning new things every day.

    i just want to change to be healthier and happier and live a nice long life with my family so i am doing this for my health and my looks, i just hope you all understand and help me i want the help if u have ideas for me im welling to listen to all

    gl to all in there weight loss and healthy living!!!!!!!!!!!!

    300 wow

    Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 03:46 PM EST [General]

    Well I hvent wrote in a while so I thought I would now, on my gym days well I go 6 days a week now i rest on sundays. I do the treadmill for 35 total mins and I do 4.0 incline and 3.0 speed, I also run on it too, incline of 2.0 and speed of 3.7 and try for a total run time of 5 to 7 mins with in the 35 min mark. im getting use to it more and trying to run more if my legs let me they are still really sore at times, but I burn about 225 calories in that times so times alittle less maybe a little more. Then  I go to the bikes and do 25 total mins, do about 9 miles total and about 100 calories or more depends. I reached 300 total calories the other day and damn was I proud of my self for sure.

     My sugars have really been good, with eatting and working out im hoping it stays that way. I go back to the diabetes dr thrus and cant wait to get weighed, I dont weigh myself any where but with her, so im hoping I lost some more weight, but for I dont feel like I have at all!! Guess we wait and see on thrus. Ill post it if i lose or gain on this big journey of weight loss and diabetes.

    Great day at the gym..Bad Sugar???

    Saturday, November 7, 2009, 03:21 PM EST [General]

    Well I got up this am and took my sugar it was 136 which is high compared to what it has been,  its usually 120..so I ate breakfast a south beach cereal bar, and left for the gym. I started with a 10 min warm up, then went to the treadmill, did 35 mins with a cooldown. on 2.5 speed even ran about 5 mins total at a 4.7 speed (getting better at that) so in all I burned 155 calories and di 1.43 miles.  Then I went to the bike and did 25 mins with cooldown and I burned 110 calories and ran 8.98 miles. Then I came home and helped my hubby and son with yard work didnt do much but hold the bags and got leaves all over me lol, after that I came in the house and took my sugar b4 lunch and it was 124 which was really high for my after my gym time, its usually 90 ..so I ate lunch a roast beef (2 slices) sandwhich with 1 tsp mayo on lite wheat bread, 13 toritilla chips and 2 tsp of salsa and a bottle water.  Then I took a shower puttied around the house and 2 hrs later I took my sugar again and to my surprise it was still kinda high 136 its usually 107. Now im a little nervious on whats going on with it. Guess ill wait for Tomorrow and see what it is before I worry to much, because its not that high, just high for me.

    This starts at the back of my car on the driver side and goes to my door its only a 2 door so that means the whole driver side is wiped out...OMG i was SOOOOO mad, so now it goes in to get fixed Monday and now I need a rental car that SHE IS PAYING FOR!!!!!!
