crazy morning…

I usually set my alarm for 6:30 but always wake up before it goes off… I’ve been having trouble sleeping for the last week or so due to a sore neck so didn’t put on my alarm as it was my day off…

woke up to a call from my daughter at 7:51… unfortunately I had an 8 am doctor’s appointment;-(…

flew out of the house wondering what my blood pressure reading would be, lol…

was only a few minutes late as the office is close to home…

my blood pressure was great which was amazing but my A1C was not so great… still in the safe zone but it has been creeping up over the last year…

early on following my diabetes diagnosis I did not consume any sugar and was so strict with my diet that my life was overly focussed on food… the good news about that was how low I was able to bring down my A1C without meds… the bad news was that the strict eating was causing problems with my quality of life… since then the doctor and I agreed to relax my eating to find a happy medium…

today we decided that I need to find something between crazy strict and what I’ve been doing recently…

so, not so many treats… and I also think I need to be sure to spend a bit more time on the treadmill every day…
