Weights: 233.8 (237 at the doctor – OMG)
A1C 6.9
As predicted, my A1C is higher that it’s been in the past. Doctor has upped my meds temporarily until I can get my glucose back down. Although I had to drag myself to the doctor, I am glad I did as it helps me get refocused.
I also did well after the doctor as I usually then hit Panera. I had made myself coffee at home (which I didn’t drink until after the doc since I had to fast) and brought my egg bites. I did go out to lunch however had a ham & cheese omelette and an english muffin. I know I need to really switch to a veggie omelette but I just love cheese and ham way too much. At least I avoided the fries this time so that’s something.
I made it to martial arts class again tonight. Class seems to be getting easier so hopefully that’s a sign that I am building my stamina back up. First black belt test is a week from Sunday. Yikes.
And once again, the hardest part of the day with eating healthy is the 8-10 p.m. time slot. No matter how well I eat during the day I tend to fall off the rails. My goal needs to be to brush my teeth before the witching hour and then I avoid eating for two reasons: food tastes funny and I’m too lazy to brush my teeth twice before bed. I probably need to put that at the top of my priority list.
Tomorrow I have officially been trying to eat clean for 2 weeks. Baby Steps.
