I can't believe it's been so long since I journaled. The baby shower was great...she got so many beautiful gifts. About 30 attended. The we had DD's birthday, DS's birthday, Father's Day with loads of company...so busy...so much to do. I'm spending all my days off at DD's helping to get everything ready for new DGranddaughter. Only 12 more days until the due date!
I just had my doctor checkup last evening...it was a 3-month followup. My bloodsugar was a lot better, my BP was a lot lower, he was happy I was exercising...still waiting for the cholesterol bloodwork to get back. I still didn't lose weight. He said the only way to pep up my sluggish metabolism was MORE exercise. I bike ride every evening after dinner (about 2 miles) and I know I could be doing more, but after working all day, taking care of the house, etc. there seems so little time. And I feel tired out after doing what I already do.
I'm still keeping my carbs to about 25 a day. I have no desire for white flour or most items with sugar. I generally feel good, and the doctor was very pleased with the improvement. The only thing different I did since my last checkup 3 months ago was the bike riding. Back then the weather just wasn't cooperating.
