Diabetes in December

Posted by Chris on Dec 1, 2010 in Diet and Weight Loss, Endo Appointment, Exercise and Diabetes, Uncategorized | 0 comments
Another month has come and gone and now we are in the finally month of the year. Are you serious??!!?? It seems like just yesterday that I was writing a post outlining my goals for 2010. Well I can tell you one thing now, I did not reach those goals. The year is not over so I still have a month to try and accomplish some of them, but I defimitely wont be meeting them all. One of my main goals of the year was losing weight and I have not done a good job at that. I have been spinning at home, but after just two days of doing it, my ass hurts so bad from the seat, so I have to buy something...

Week 5 of Dieting

Posted by Chris on Nov 29, 2010 in Diet and Weight Loss, Exercise and Diabetes | 0 comments
Week 5 of my dieting and it has to get back to serious this week after the week of bad eating that I just had last week.  Last week’s eating was well worth it and I planned that type of eating into the diet because it was Thanksgiving, duh!  It just sounds weird that I am saying week 5 and it’s still November, ha.  I did not eat as bad as what I thought I would though, so I am proud of myself for that.  I only went to 1 or 2 of the eateries that I usually go to.  And when I did go to those places, I only ate half of what I usually would have eaten. I am still riding the bike...

Week 3 of Dieting

Posted by Chris on Nov 15, 2010 in Exercise and Diabetes | 0 comments
So this week is week three of my new form of dieting. I have been doing pretty well with it, but still not as good as i want to do. I am missing some days of my exercise and every so often i am eating foods that I know I shoukdnt be eating, but not as much as before though. My weight is down but still not what i wanted it to be at this time, but i am making headway on dropping this weight and getting to an OmniPod. I have added a new exercise bike to my condo, so I will be riding that about 5-6 days a week in order to burn more calories.  It is not a regular exercise bike, but more of a...

Easier Exercise Plan

Posted by Chris on Nov 4, 2010 in Diet and Weight Loss, Exercise and Diabetes | 0 comments
A new diet and goal planning was in dire need because I was not meeting any of my goals for dieting and weight loss so it was very disappointing. My new plan will start right away and it will make my goals a little easier to obtain which will eventually get me to my long term goals. My new way of dieting is very simple. Eat a high fiber breakfast bar, salad for lunch, and some type of meat for dinner with a green veggie and rice. I will treat myself to a little snack at night, Frosted Flakes. This is my motivation to get myself to eat healthy during the day. This is easier for me to do as...

Too Fat for OmniPod

Posted by Chris on Oct 25, 2010 in Diet and Weight Loss, Exercise and Diabetes | 0 comments
It’s been three straight days going to the gym now, and I feel great.  For the first Monday morning in I don’t know how long, that I weighed myself Friday morning, and then again Monday morning, and I weighed less than I did on Friday.  It was very exciting to see that on the scale.  Basically, I made a decision after having to explain something to my girlfriend that made me realize, ok you need to get serious.  This is what happened. Amanda recently was hired as a fourth grade teacher and had to go to some training on Saturday and when she was there one of the girls she met...

Excuses Are Like….

Posted by Chris on Oct 4, 2010 in Diet and Weight Loss, Exercise and Diabetes | 2 comments
Today was one of those reality check days for me.  It wasn’t a bad day, but it was a day that consisted of a lot of thinking about some serious issues and concerns in my life.  The two main were wealth and health, and there is about 5 variations to each of those, but I’m not going to get into all of them here.  First up is my health, because that obviously comes first.  My blood sugars have not been very good over the last several months and there are two main reasons for that.  Lack of exercise (what a surprise) and overeating (what a surprise as well).  If you have been...
