Day 10 and 11 – Weekend Mishaps

1/4/20-1/5/20
Glucose Saturday: didn’t test
Glucose Sunday: 175 (yikes, super high)

Weekends always seem to be challenging. I just have to remember that this is not a diet, but a new way of life.

I’ve got to get my glucose back under control or I will have long term consequences. I do go to the doctor tomorrow to discuss how I’ve been struggling for the last month. I know for me, it’s less about diet and more about weight. When I get below 220 is when I see a dramatic drop in my fasting glucose levels. I do shudder to think what my A1C is going to be tomorrow but I’ve already cancelled and rescheduled the doctor a number of times so I am forcing myself to just go and get it over with. Then I will set new A1C goals for the next three months.

Over the weekend I did make it to the gym on Sunday so all in all, the week was a success in the exercise department. I went to the gym twice and martial arts advanced class twice. Feels great to have a week of exercise under my belt. Next week I’m going to shoot for five as that is my long term goal and totally achievable. In 2019 my top exercise month was October and I exercised 8 times and burned a total 2,013. I can totally beat that in the month of January.

Saturday in the eating department I did okay until late at night when everyone was upstairs and I raided the pantry and fridge. Had way too many snacks of the unhealthy kind. Once the junk is out of the house it is not being replaced.

Sunday breakfast and lunch went okay and dinner we went out to Chili’s. Didn’t make very good decisions. Monday is a whole new day.
