kmartdollie's Journal, 07 February 2013

I went to the gym tonight and did elliptical, arms, and abs. I haven't been keeping up with my arms and abs as much lately, so I really felt it. I thought about running but I was running short on time. I also walked the dog for 30 minutes. I can sense that my clothes are getting looser, which is good, but I still haven't had a loss. The butts and thighs of my pants are baggy, but my stubborn stomach stays put. I swear, my abs are the bane of my existence. Tonight I had an exceptionally healthy dinner - 3 slices of turkey, sweet potato oven fries with no sugar ketchup, collard greens, corn and shoestring beets. It was really good. I need to plan better and eat like that more often. I was so full from all the vegetables that I really felt satisfied. And of course I ate two cups of sugar free pudding to top it off. My blood sugars have been running very well lately. They are even a little lower than normal, considering what they are after I eat. I feel almost like my body is changing. I have been so careful with food and carbs since being a diabetic, and I've done it for over a year now, and so my body doesn't seem to spike as much on sugar after meals, even if I've had 45 grams of carbs or more. I try to stick to less than 162 grams of carbs per day, but some days, like today, I go over. Only by 30 grams. Most people eat over 300 grams of carbohydrate a day. I feel like I'm still doing well at 190 today.

I love that you are measuring your progress with clothes, feeling good and your workouts - so much better than the stupid scale since the scale does not reflect all that kind of progress! Rock On, Lady!
