Sure, I know about boosting up blood sugars etc...for Joe...but how annoying to be working out and having to take in extra calories to boost your blood sugar in order to workout...vicious cycle. Your hubby sounds cool.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00895126112651188056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655476866591487074.post-16607312325717334232011-05-24T13:48:08.799-05:002011-05-24T13:48:08.799-05:00I just found your blog and so glad I did!!

I'm finally doing something with myself besides throw a pity party. I really want to be the best version of myself, and I plan on making that happen this year!!!<br /><br />xoxo<br />Roxie-GirlRoxie Morrow https://www.blogger.com/profile/02993807555666109149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655476866591487074.post-90839391027249900752011-05-24T13:24:50.891-05:002011-05-24T13:24:50.891-05:00That was a great "kick in the butt" arti...That was a great "kick in the butt" article, Meagan. I know that I have to exercise and I had been up until a few weeks ago when I got on the scale and I haven't lost a single pound in months. I was killing myself working out and nothing would change. Not only do I have diabetes-burn-out but exercise-burn-out! <br /><br />I know it's not about losing weight (no..really it's about losing weight) but it's just one of those things that help keep bgs at bay. <br /><br />So now I will get back on track with you!!! (VHS tapes!!! Is one of them Jane Fonda???? I still have mine :))Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16740128447869682615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655476866591487074.post-61247352137538480002011-05-22T18:17:09.933-05:002011-05-22T18:17:09.933-05:00Love this post because it rings true for me so muc...Love this post because it rings true for me <i>so</i> much. I am only 18, but I have all those fears of going low whilst exercising too.<br /><br />At the gym about a year ago I was on the treadmill and was putting so much energy into actually keeping my legs moving that adrenaline decided to fool my body into thinking I wasn't low when really I was. When I stopped running I went all light-headed and funny until I got some much-needed glucose tabs down my neck.<br /><br />I find that swift 20min walks everyday work best for me to keep my levels pretty stabilised now. Apart from that I am a self-confessed, lazy diabetic, but your post was enough to make me think about kicking myself into gear too! :) Thank you!Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12707707541874767548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655476866591487074.post-58924190915176729922011-05-22T10:05:11.347-05:002011-05-22T10:05:11.347-05:00Oh I know how you feel.

My boyfriend works out everyday......and I'm usually so tired after work that I veg in front of the tv or computer, make dinner, then veg some more. <br /><br />I also have the added fun of retinopathy that acts up at the smallest thing - so if I workout, sometimes my eye gets funky. And who wants that?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655476866591487074.post-19161680653401549482011-05-21T12:14:59.238-05:002011-05-21T12:14:59.238-05:00Thanks Jody!

I too have too much dust on my exercise shoes and its been WAY too long. I will be inspired by your article and try one this week- Its that First Step back that's the hardest. Thanks for sharing and your husband is a sweetheart!Jody Moreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010779427716129536noreply@blogger.com
