I managed to stick to it.

It is very stressful in my household with my father-n-law in the hospital and recovering from heart surgery. I managed yesterday to keep on my diet plan. I am just going to take it one day at a time.
The Good Lord has my back and everything is under his control. My father-n-law is improving another blessing to be thankful for.

My blood sugars are crazy

I have a terrible breakout of sores on my body, It is because of my sugars. My sugars have been over 300 here lately. My daughter who is working on becoming a nurse, said it isn't uncommon for that to happen. I am trying to get it back under control. I know, I need to take better care of myself

weigh-in 2 ( I gained)

Well, I gained but I am back on track. I weighed 269, I thought I gained 9 but it was only 7 so that is a really good thing

My Father-n-law had open heart surgery and I gained 9 pds

My father-n-law Willis Crosby, just had open heart surgery, It happened so quick too. He went to the emergency room for agina and ended up having open heart surgery. He has had a few complications, he had some respiratory problems, but he is out of the woods now. I am so thankful that he is making a full recovery. I gained 9 pds, I am not a person that handles stress well. My hubby ended up going to the Dr. when his dad got sick, he got sick, the doctor is going to run a bunch of test, for gall bladder and a ulcer. I pray that he will be fine, last thing we need is a sick hubby bubby. Well, I am going to determinedly stick to my diet, since my father-n-law is out of the woods. I plan on writing in my blog what I am eating so I might be more aware of my carbs.

I didn't gain but I didn't lose either.

What can you say about that? Well, I guess if I didn't go up that is a good thing. I kinda overendulged a little but it didn't hurt me thank the Good Lord. I walked a little further this morning to make up for my overendulgence. I go to my doctor friday, hoping for a little good news, this time. I think she will be surprised at what I have achieved. I will be honest, there have been times that I used asthma as the excuse not to exercise, last office visit she said if I go easy and do my inhaler 30 mins before I walk and have it handy as I walked, I would be okay, also start small and gradually increase there is no reason for me not to exercise. I guess that was my favorite excuse, not to exercise, asthma, but I now know, I can if I do it in a responsible and safe manner. I will be honest, I am starting to like it, the first few days, I was sore, that is getting better, and I live in the country, so I am enjoying some of the nature as I walk. I am only walking about 1/4 of a mile, but at least I am starting. I am learning a lot from some of the people on the atkins forum, they are so informative and really helpful too. I am so glad I started this.
