I Miss My Vegetables :/

March 23, 2013
 I know that at some point I will have a very full time job and I should be getting used to going to work. I am just not used to going. I get so tired when I'm there and I either have too high or too low of a blood sugar. It's a good experience though to learn how to keep my blood sugars at a regular level. Has anyone ever told you it's a very long process to learn how to manage diabetes? I'll tell you, it's a very long process to learn how to manage diabetes. At first I thought, "Oh this will be fine. I will just eat my carbohydrate amount, take my insulin and I'll be fine." Wrong! It's all over the place and I worry once I get it managed and at a constant level it'll change on me. They have what they call a "honeymoon period" in diabetes where it's really great for a while and I have the right amount of insulin and then just like that all the things that were working before. I'm worried about having this happen. I know I'd be able to do it I just wouldn't want to. I guess I should be taking this one step at a time and not worrying about something that hasn't happened. That's just another thing I get to learn from this.

 I got to take a nap today though! That was nice. :) I have been so tired lately, it's all taken a lot out of me. It was funny today I had my lunch and it wasn't the healthiest lunch ever and then when dinner rolled around I was so excited to eat my vegetables. This a good way to learn to love vegetables because you can eat a TON of them and it won't rack up your carbohydrates too much. I love my vegetables now. I'm really excited I'm going to be so healthy and that I make my own meals. It's been kind of fun doing all of this and getting more creative with meals. I'd still like my cupcake of course, but I'll work up to that one.

 I am also getting really excited about working out because it not only gets me in shape it can help my blood sugar. If it's too high that's automatically what I start doing is getting ready to go to the gym or just being more active wherever I am. This is a good thing because it's really helping me to be more active and get in shape. You can't go wrong with being healthy. :)

 They told me at one of my classes it's really good to start setting goals for myself because then I actually work towards them. My goal for tomorrow is to be more productive and get some cleaning and paperwork done and then relax. :) Maybe even if it's sunny, which cross your fingers so it will be, I'll go for a walk with Trixxy. Here's to being positive and getting things done! Goodnight :)
