I did a 16:45 mile today.
I did really well on my eating.
Then I went out to dinner and ate to the point of being uncomfortable.
I am feeling very discouraged. I hope that I will have not gained anything in the morning, but I am doubtful.

Breakfast: 2 eggs on whole wheat (240 cal)
Snack: 1/2 Protein Bar (90 cal)
Lunch: Chocolate Milk & Apple ( 300 + 80 cal)
Snack: V8 Splash (70 cal) Smore Cereal (120 cal) Ice Cream (80 cal)
Dinner: Panang Curry (500 cal)
Total: 1480
(But then I had a bowl of cereal for dessert . . . so?)
My blood sugar tested at 68 this morning when I got up. I don't know how accurate it was though since the blood was not from my finger, but from a nosebleed. I have got to stop having those. Damn dry air . . .
On the bright side, I slept through the night for what I believe was close to 6 hours. I went to the doctor last night and he said to try a magnesium supplement. Hopefully, it will continue to work. I should add in some chromium to the regimen if all goes well. I'm getting pretty good at remembering to take pills. I deserve a medal or something.

Weekend in SC
I spent the weekend in South Carolina. I ate poorly. I gained 6 pounds. Damn it all. :-(

Back on the Bandwagon, Again
I woke up this morning and decided to test my fasting blood sugar. I did not like what I found: 112. This definitely in the range for pre-diabetes, which I already knew, but I thought that my working out would have made some sort of change for that. Nope. I have got to be better about what I eat.
So, I'm back to recording everything on here. I am really terrible about being consistent with my blogging, but I've made it almost 30 days over at First Person Narrative, so I can do it. I just have to feel like I want to.
Another thing that I have go to start doing is my cardio. I always think I'm going to do it when I leave the gym and then I never do. That Sprout really puts a crimp in my style, I must say. But I think that's just an excuse. I could have been getting up at the ass crack of dawn to do my cardio for more than 6 months and I just wasn't doing it. As much as I would love to get the cardio over and done with in the AM, I find that 4-6 PM is the sweet spot for me lately. I just have to get my ass over to the gym at that time EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Back to my thoughts on That Sprout: She pitches a fit every time I want to leave the house with her. School is starting next week though, so hopefully I can keep her occupied between 1 and 4 so that it will be a smooth transition to the gym I think we're going to be spending a lot of time at the mall, at parks, and at other indoor play areas. I might start taking her to the other gym I'm a member of too. We'll see.
Related and yet unrelated to this fitness topic: I was thinking about Amy Schumer's Glamour speech wherein she said "I’m probably like 160 pounds right now and I can catch a dick whenever I want, like, that’s the truth. It’s not a problem!" I can relate. I guess I am feeling very body positive or something, but I'll tell you what, if I were not married, I would have no problem finding a very attractive man who wanted to have sex with me.
Lately, men from my past have been coming out of the woodwork offering me amorous overtures. Not to mention, if I take the time to look like a productive member of society before I go about my day I can pretty much count on being hit on. And my husband still thinks I'm hot. Long story short: I've been feeling really good about the way I look lately. It's my health that concerns me.
That's about all I have for this morning. Will update throughout the day with foods.
Breakfast: Protein, milk, wheatgrass, chia, fiber, and cocoa powder
Snack: Apple
Lunch: Lamb Curry
Snack: Protein Bar
Dinner: Lamb Curry
