I have no idea how I missed last week. When I went to post this week, I realized the oversight.  Ah well, it happens. After several weeks bouncing back and forth by a pound or so, we showed positive movement again this week.  While I did pass a milestone weight, I know not to get... Continue Reading →

    I mentioned a couple weeks back my struggle re-adjusting from the weight loss logic I'd learned before and some of my new diabetic plan. Here's something I hadn't expected. My glucose numbers got worse. Not catastrophically, but significantly worse.  So I shifted back to what I had done before.  And they seem to be... Continue Reading →

  It was a birthday week that wasn't a whole lot of fun.  Ah well.  Let myself splurge a little for celebrations. And then there was the "sick". Nothing serious, I'm happy to report.  But a head cold and enough to throw everything off.  Hard to get out and exercise, don't really care what I... Continue Reading →

So, I will spare you the suspense.  The number at the bottom this week is another good one. Which in some ways surprises me.  It didn’t feel like a particularly good week.  I had one day where my carb intake blew through the roof, largely without me even noticing. The difference, I believe, is that […]

  I didn't have a lot of hope for this week.  Went to visit a friend last weekend and that meant some good eating that wasn't always going to be on target eating!  Instead, I reminded myself that I could enjoy myself without being ridiculous about it.  Based on the number at the bottom, that...

  Just a quick update this week.  Going to be busy this weekend.  Which means lots of eating challenges.  Need to keep the long range goal in mind, while still having some fun. I really ran out of motivational gas this past week.  Seven inches of snow put a serious kink in my exercise.  Since... Continue Reading →

It’s amazing what you can do, once you decide what your priorities are going to be!   I mentioned last week that the weather becomes an increasing issue for staying active.  A gym membership was how I dealt with this in the snowy climes of WNY, but that’s a tough thing to have to try […]

A week like this was inevitable. The weather and my schedule put the 150 in serious jeopardy.  If I get out and get busy tomorrow, I think I can salvage it.  But there was way too much off discipline eating.  We had two celebrations and I lost the discipline thread both times.  Both could have...
