Today is my first day reporting in for the Moms of Many Exercise Challenge. I have nothing to report yet, except that the teeny weeny weights I lifted on Saturday have made the backs of my arms sore, especially right above my elbows. That's a good thing, right? And my right forearm is really hurting, but I think that is nerve related. Hey, maybe I compounded the problem by doing weights! There's another excuse not to exercise. I don't have to look very far! lol!
My biggest excuse, which is really one of the reasons why I need to do this in the first place, is that I am insulin-depended diabetic, and every time I start exercising it really messes up my blood sugar control. Since it's all out of whack right now, anyway, I can't really use that one today.... Okay, I am going to go do those weights again. My goal is three days a week for a while.

I have no idea why this happens to me when I exercise. But after I feel dizzy and feel like I'm going to pass out. I do exercise still but I only do a very little. So as to not over do it.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a very good start. I didn't know you were a diabetic... have any sugar free recipes to share? :D
ReplyDeleteI think your way distant cousin is heading toward diabetes with what he likes to buy - fruit loops of all things, ice cream, canned frosting, WORSE chocoholic than me, at least my craving is only once a month lol.
Are the girls lifting weights too?

You take care of yourself. Another reason we need to be neighbors, we can go on walks together - all 8 of us girls.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you're getting into a groove. :-) I can't wait till we can all report that we're size 8's! LoL
