It’s weird. Lately, people have been telling me that I have inspired them. I am not quite used to it, but I like it. I have been walking at the dam pretty regularly and often go after doing my circuit and classes at the gym. Several of the ladies at the gym are now coming [...]

So, today marked a milestone for me. I have officially been a member at Butterfly Life for about a month now. My original goal when joining was simply to go 5 days a week. I accomplished that goal. I have even gone during my time of the month as well as when I didn’t feel [...]
Feeling A Bit Tired

Lately, I have been feeling a bit tired and a bit under the weather. I am not sure if any of it relates to my diabetes. I just don’t feel particularly well. I had a busy weekend and didn’t get as much sleep as I should have. I did fine on my eating and carbs [...]
I’m Not Sorry

I’m not sorry that I have diabetes, that is. Really, I’m not. I think it’s been a great thing for me because it has forced me to look at my life and see the habits that are really unhealthy and leading me to a bad place. As a result of being diagnosed at this age, [...]

I’ve gone off the deep-end, I am losing it! My mind, that is Today, I not only did my circuit, but then went for a walk at the dam (yep, all 4 miles) and then I came home and decided to mow the lawn! I think it’s safe to say that I have [...]

I am totally psyched today! I think I mentioned in my last blog that I was going to try to start walking the dam during the week without Hubby. I felt like trying to do it in the mornings after my circuit was maybe a lofty goal that I couldn’t achieve, but I was going [...]
Rocking Out on My New iPod!

So, yesterday after my Hubby and I walked across the Lake Murray Dam and back (total of 4 miles!), I mentioned to him that I would love to have an iPod to be able to use when he couldn’t walk with me. I need something to distract me from the fact that I am actually [...]

So, I have been dealing with some horrible cramps from my cycle and thought that maybe I should take Midol (since it was already in the cabinet and I have a friend that swears by it). It was 3 a.m. and I was in pain. The active ingredients didn’t list sugar or have any warnings to [...]
I Forgot About Double Thursday

I am not as irritated as yesterday but it really is draining to be around negativity for so long like I was yesterday. I didn’t need to be exposed to all that bitterness. I am better today.
My fun thing for today is that my first cycle as a diabetic has started. I have heard that [...]
