Just4Today (Struggling forward)

Just 4 Today....

Just 4 Today....

Well. It’s another rainy day (putting Todd the Tree Man’s job back another 4 days :( . sigh)

It would be great if I could put off dealing with this weight thing but, I can’t.  Aside from looks and clothes (which I’ve proved in the past aren’t my most effective motivators) it’s a serious health issue.  I DO worry about the impact 10+ years of diabetes is having on my general health. And my blood sugar levels are directly related to what – and how much – I eat.

But, oh — it’s a constant struggle.  I don’t know what I’d do without this blog and all my friends!

Just 4 Today, I’m weighing myself (done!), taking my fiber and other supplements (DONE!), drinking 2 liters of water (about 1/2 already), walking 5 miles (in at least 3 walks – 3415) , I’ll test my blood sugar at least 4 times. . . . and NOT eat between meals & NOT take seconds!

What are you going to do today?

    Keep going! And remember EVERY healthy thing you do today also impacts your health (in a good way) years from now! We all sometimes forget that, even me, the exercise instructor!

    Hello:

    Long time. I just wanted you to know that I will be led into forced semi-retirement as of August1, apparently. We just got an email from our current leader telling us there will be an approximate 20% reduction in the workforce here.

    Truthfully I feel like weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I think I feel a cough coming on…sounds like I need to go ride a horse for a while to get rid of it.

    Oh, Shaun – 20% reduction – wow, I don’t know what to say. That’s scary/exciting?

    Can we have lunch this weekend or sometime?
