Exercise:
None really. We had a rough night with the boys and I turned off my alarm at 4:00 when I put them both back to bed.... I did pull them in the wagon down to the park but my sis in law pulled it back. Not even a half mile there. Bleh!

I suck! I haven't lost any weight and if I'm being REALLY honest, it's because I'm not sticking to my plan. I eat too many calories between meals, too much junk food. So, I'm going to try to recommit and really work hard on no bread and no sugar.
There is this weird thing that happens when you're diabetic. You cut out the sugar, and your blood-sugars go down!

But here's what happens. I start getting really afraid that I'll go TOO low (lows are the worst!), so I just eat more to compensate. It's a really tough balance. My insulin pump is set to give me specific amounts of insulin throughout the day and when I kick up the exercise and change my eating habits, my blood sugar levels also change (decrease). I just have to figure out how to balance it all. Maybe I'll buy some of those nasty glucose tablets to carry in my purse.
