I've written before about having major DOMS, but today I swear I have Four Star General DOMS! *grin* Extreme soreness in legs and glutes. Last night my quads were actually shaky when I was...

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing it, danibel!

Today marks one year that I broke my leg; I *finally* got to do weighted squats today! Whoo! Hoo!

Fasting Blood Glucose: 109

Work life is ferning CRAZY. I have to figure out how to stress less about it when I'm there and not stress about it at all once I've left the office.

My only gym...

Fasting Blood Glucose: 123

A much better number this morning, due to eating less carbs yesterday. My PCP said I can have my diabetes related blood tests done every 3 - 4 months. I'm going to...

I was able to squeeze in a short session after work.

Fasting Blood Glucose: 189 <----------- Remember my mentioning carby birthday treats that were brought for my co-worker? I ate them throughout the course of the day. And topped it off with a high...

Fasting Blood Glucose: 130

I had no idea what my fasting number would be this morning, with my unexpectedly being away from home for most of the weekend and not packing enough diabetic meds --...

Sorry to hear this, Ham! Has the work world gone ferning (I stole this word from my fav diabetes blogger, Kerri Sparling) mad?! Since I have to be at work an hour earlier tomorrow morning (long...

Hi Hobbes! :)

I laughed when I read about your encounter with another grocery shopper in the checkout lane when you were wearing your *other* ham shirt! Thanks for the chuckle!

I rescheduled...

The long hours at the office have been beating me down (I know exactly how Swooshie feels). I had to reschedule my weekly Saturday appointment with my trainer for the second time. *sigh* And my...

I'm not one to say" OMG"! But this image warrants it! It looks like something out of a Tim Burton movie! *grin*

Fasting Blood Glucose: 114

When I eat healthy for my body my blood sugar level reflects it. I would like to get that fasting number back under 100, which can be done because I've done it before....

Yup, everyone's blood sugar goes up immediately after they eat. You want to test just before you take the first bite, then an hour later (if you are a fast eater) and an hour after that.

Some...

Fasting Blood Glucose: 160 <------- Last night before bed I ate one of the last of the Fran's Gold Bars that I had ordered. I have two remaining which I'm going to give to two friends who aren't...

Thanks for your feedback, ladies (there is a group of women lifters in London who attend classes called "Ladies Who Lift". I love the name!). I checked out MarksDailyApple in my research yesterday. ...

Cardio
I had planned on doing 30 minutes on the bike but I ended up only doing 5. Alex's sessions got shifted around without anyone telling him, so he asked if I could start earlier. I happened to...

I'd welcome the opinions of my Amazon sisters on something I'm about to embark on, diet-wise.

Yesterday I stopped in at Whole Foods Market before my hair appointment next door. I saw on WF's...
