I'm proud of myself this morning, I woke up early and tried to go to my apartment gym, but for some reason my key wasn't working and no one was there to let me in. Boo! I was determined to workout, so I marched back home and decided to do a cable TV "On Demand" workout. I found an awesome Kickboxing workout that made me SWEAT and that made me feel awesome. I didn't get a chance to finish it because I had to get ready for work, so I paused it and I'll finish it when I get home. :)
I have to realize that things are going to go a little haywire, but that shouldn't stop me from my goal. I have to be committed, there is no other choice. Change requires change. It's as simple as that. Everytime I see myself slipping back into a "comfort zone," I have to repeat that same thing: change requires change! My goal is to make working out and eating well my new comfort zone. I know it's going to take time to get there, but I NEED to do it.
Have a healthy day buddies. :)

Today is my 29th birthday. I'm not as "yay me" as I usually am on my birthday only because of the state I'm in. Last year, I started taking my health seriously and dropped 50lbs. You know that saying "dropped it like a bad habit?" I find it strange that it is meant that whatever "it" is gets dropped quickly when in fact bad habits are soooo hard to drop! Sorry, that's just a random thought because I was about to type, "I dropped my good habits like a bad habit." But those bad habits were not easy to drop and the good habits weren't easy to get.
Well, since last year, I've gained 30lbs. boo! I wanted to be fit for the last year in my twenties just so that this decade, where you're supposed to have the most fun in life (so I'm told), was not a total waste. I remember turning 19 and wanting to be fit and trim sooo bad. I was upset that I spent my teenage years heavy (although I played two sports in HS) and I was determined to be fit and healthy in my 20s. Instead, over the past 10 years, I've lost and gained the same 40-45lbs. grr. In fact, I have a "skinny bucket" of clothes that fit me beautifully at 19. Really cute jeans and shorts that back then, I hated that I was a size 18-20, but now (at size 26) I wish I can get into! LOL! Crazy, huh? Well, I think it's a little more serious for me now. I wasn't a type 2 diabetic at 19 (was diagnosed at 24). It had more to do with aesthetics for me back then. Now, things are lot more serious now. I know I can cure my diabetes, doctors have told me time and time again. I'm not as concerned about my looks as I am about my health. I've been heavy all my life but I wasn't sad about the way I looked. I've always been a little "*snap* *snap* DIVA!" LOL!! At 19 I wanted to lose weight to buy cuter clothes and be more diva. Now at 29, I NEED to lose weight to be cured.....and buy cuter clothes and be more diva. :)

It's so hard to break a habit! Yesterday, I messed up big time, however unlike previous months, I actually entered the food I ate. I'm committed to remain accountable to you, my buddies. I have to take a look at what I did in order to move forward and progress. Today is excellent so far, food-wise. I think having the protein shake in the morning with fruit as a breakfast is very helpful. It's quick and simple and no excuses breakfast. So, that's going to be it from now on until I can make the time to get a "food" breakfast together.
Speaking of time...It's been so difficult trying to get to the gym since my boyfriend's car has been out of commission. We have been sharing my car for the past three weeks and that is hard to do with two people on different schedules in South Florida! I wish I could just take the bus, but that would eat away at even more time, SFL is NOT public transit friendly! I know I have some DVDs that I can work out along with...I'll just have to do something to get some activity in. Just trying to work on healthy food choices is only part of the equation, albeit a large one!
Well folks, I hope you have a great one! :)

Basically got yelled at by my Endo's PA when she saw my A1C. I felt so embarassed because she was probably thinking "does this yound woman want to kill herself?" I have to change the thoughts in my warped mind! I think the worst thing is that I know better. I'm no longer ingnorant to what is healthy for me and what changes I can implement to bring my blood sugar down. I brought it down to a healthy level before.
Well, I got the new prescription and happy it is a WAY lower dose than I used to take last year, so I won't have as bad side effects. So far today, I'm doing ok. I feel good about what I'm eating today and I am determined to workout tonight, no matter how late it is.
I contracted an awful hangnail infection in my right ring finger. It is soooo painful and developed so quickly! I got the antibiotics for it last night, so I'm hoping this will be gone soon. It's awful, but it really made me aware of how weakened my immune system is. I seriously though my finger was going to fall off because it hurts so bad.
Anyway, I'm hoping to have more days with a clear mind like this. I make good decisions with this clear mind. I will no longer be looked as the non-compliant patient. :)
Have a great day!
