Kickball on Sundays!!!!!!!

Seriously, I believe I've made a mistake signing up for Kickball this season. Dang, I don't know about you but it's freaking hot outdoors. It's almost unbearable and the first day of Summer is not until Sunday. What was I thinking? Now, the spring wasn't so bad since it was cool but now it's hot and I can't run in that heat or do anything. Instead, I workout in the mornings and at my lunch at 10:30am and then I get off work take a nap, chill on the couch and internet. Finally, I get out the house to jog at around 9:30pm. I just can't do that heat. So, what's the plan for Kicball this summer? I have no freaking idea. All I can do is hope my God will be merciful as I play ball in that heat this summer. One thing for sure I will have to wear some cool clothing and will need plenty of water and anything to keep myself cool.


ARE YOU READY FOR SOME KICKBALL???????????


Now the end of Season Party was awesome as I got to pary with Ole School Friends. Boy, I sure love those guys for sure they are fun natural fun! It's nasty baby!

Getting Frustrated For Real!

Now, I'm working my butt off trying to lose these last 30lbs and I just can't get it done no matter what I do. The only other option is to go into starvation mode. I've consistently been running every day. I run through my lunch break and I run at least a minimum of 3 to 5 miles in the evening. I average a good 5 or 6 miles a day running. The only other thing I can think of is to add my Firm fitness tapes back into my program. Plus I play at least two sports, Dodgeball and Kickball. Now, I've measured the steps Kickball doesn't have me as active there is more standing around on that one. Now, dodgeball is another story, I'm pretty active in that sport. Currently since I've purchased my running shoes, I've run a good 45 miles. Here's the current report from Nike Plus.

Why I was having Dizzy Spells

I kept having those Dizzy Spells well after my gallbladder surgery. I decided to look at the fact that I may be pre-Diabetic. Every other weekend I start feeling very bad. I would feel so bad I couldn't move all I could do was lie down. I didn't know what was wrong with me. After searching, I decided to start looking into Pre-Diabetes. It turns out that I may be pre-diabetic. I read many blogs where people spoke about this and how they felt. I was experiencing the same symptoms. I just want to feel and look great.
Nothing I did in the beginning was working. Something changed and I couldn't figure out what it was. Now, as soon as I changed my foods on Sunday I was feelig so much better. I felt so great and I had no dizzy spells. My husband cooked hamburger helper and instead of eating what they ate I chose to go to schloztys to get me their regular sandwich which is made with the sourdough bread that I must have. Later, I went to kickball and to myself yes, I lost weight at least 1lb.
Also, I purchased a glucose monitor and it really helped me to monitor my blood glucose numbers. On Saturday I felt terrible my number was at 100 and when I felt great on Sunday my number was at 80 well below 100. I'm fighting this with everything I have. The best way to do this is to continue exercising and keep researching everything on Diabetes and Pre-Diabetes. I've signed up to get into a study on the Automimmune antibodies that may be present since I'm at high risk for Dibates. This test will show me if I have those antibodies present which will show that I will have Diabetes. It's exciting and I really need to know if those antibodies are present in my sysrem.
When I lost weight last time, I did a few things correct. First, I cut all meat consumption out of my diet, I started drinking at least 2 liters of water a day, I ate only vegetables at least 3 days a week, at least 2 days a week I would eat only fruits. The fruits I ate consisted of cantaloupes, pineapples,watermelons, oranges, strawberries, and grapefruits. I ate no breads, no heavey meat, no fried foods, and the weight just started coming off.


Now, I've found the following websites in regards to GI Diets which also has free Books for download.

Weight Loss_What have I discovered?

Since, I had my surgery I've had a difficult time trying to continue losing weight. I exercise regularly and I even play two sports. I've not understood why I'm not able to lose weight. I was able to lose weight in the beginning but since my gallbladder surgery I wasn't able to lose any weight. Every since my husband has been home from Iraq he has started cooking again. Usually when he cooks, I'm not able to lose weight. I've expressed this to him and he gets aggravated but it's the truth. Whenever he prepares meals for us I stop losing weight and start gaining weight. I also feel bad whenever cooks. Also, I've been having dizzy spells. Therefore, I decided it was time to take a look at what I'm predisposed too and start looking from that perspective. The biggest issue I have is Diabetes. I'm trying to prevent from having Diabetes. I decided to purchase a blood glucose monitor and see what were my numbers. The day I purchased the glocose monitor I was not feeling good. When I checked my blood, I was sitting at a whopping 100mg/dl. Wow, this indicates pre-diabetes, not high enough for Diabetes but high enough to declare Pre-Diabetes. I've decided to start looking at Glycemic diets and this is what I've found so far. It seems to me there is one thing common amongst foods I can't eat and that would be if it's white it's not right. I have to eat Wheat Bread, no rice, no corn, potatoes but only the sweet are good for me, and milk only if it's 1%. Therefore, I've begun to research Glycemic Diets to see what they were all about. I decided to try the diet and guess what? I've lost 3lbs in a weekend and I feel so much better. That is amazing!
