Hey... remember me??!!
I'm still here. Still worried about the blood sugar (my feet are tingling waaay too much for my liking)... Haven't checked it in a long time - need to find my monitor.
Well, I'm trying, yet again, to get myself on the road to health and happiness. It is an endless journey if you are always just starting... but you gotta keep trying, right? Rome wasn't built in a day. I didn't get this way overnight. It is going to be a very long journey and I just have to realize that and not get disappointed or disgusted with myself when I lapse. As Dory (Finding Nemo) would say "just keep swimming, just keep swimming".
So, today I stepped on the scale and I'm still (luckily) at 230 lbs. I say luckily because I'm amazed that my weight has not shot up since last time I stood on that scale... which was so long ago I don't even remember when it was.
I managed to get through 30 minutes on the recumbant bike on level 2. It's a start! And because I was studying my script, the time just flew past.
Breakfast: 1 egg on 1 pc of rye toast... a bit of butter and a tsp of ketchup. Coffee, two cream, two Splenda.
Lunch: turkey sandwich on multigrain with lettuce, 1 slice marble cheese, 1 tsp honey mustard, carrots and celery on the side. Lots of water.
I also managed to take my Metformin and a Crestor after lunch... so yay me!
I'm planning on going to the gym each day at lunch this week... so we'll see how that goes. I CAN DO IT!
My goal: While I realize my goal should probably be to get my diabetes under control and be healthier for the sake of being healthy... my real goal is to get to a point where I feel that my weight won't be a barrier to getting the roles that I want. I want directors to be able to see my acting and not my weight. Everything else will fall into place along the way.
