Back again...
Jan 31, 2019
So I have been ignoring my weight gain. This week I had a wakeup call, even though I am on 2 Diabetes medications, my blood sugar is still higher than it should be. I am on the path of insulin if I don't start taking care of myself again.
I decided to buckle down this week and get back to basics. I forgot how hard it is to get all of my water in and to wait 30 mins after I eat. I started Saturday, back to the gym daily. I have only had one off program meal that Saturday night for my 18th Anniversary and I did not go crazy.
I am on the scale every morning again and logging my weight. I drop my daughter off at school and go straight to the gym. I really did not want to go this morning but I powered through.
I have put back on almost 71 pounds...that is a lot, there were some medical reasons but I have leaned on that excuse for years and my thyroid labs are back in the normal range so I can't use that excuse any longer.
I logged back on here last night and I went through all of my progress photos and blog posts, well, I obviously stopped doing all of the things that fit girl was doing years ago and it shows.
Since Saturday I have already dropped 4.6 pounds doing what I was before. I am working back up to my fitness routines (and it is not as hard as I thought it would be). I have gone back to logging every single bite on My Fitness Pal. Cut out most carbs, protein first.
I don't care how much I lose but I do care how high my blood sugar is. I want to be here long enough to actually retire one day. I need to stop abusing my body and take care of it.
I am still below my surgery weight so I have to use this tool and get back to a healthy BMI. I am glad I posted on here back then so I could remember myself.
