An ‘ugh’ day

Felt good this morning.  Went for my walk/run, but ended up only doing 2 miles, ugh.

Did my stomach, arm, chest work, and did a little leg work (squats, quad lifts on the bowflex), but didn’t feel like it was going great.  But at least I got a work out in today.

Checked my blood sugar and is was only 65!  Could be good and bad……..good that my body didn’t feel it needed to dump sugar into my system to raise it, but bad because that’s probably why I didn’t feel so great too.  I’ll have to check before I exercise and if it’s low’ish, I’ll eat some carbs then exercise.  I also need to check with the doctor in April and she may need to lower my dose of Metformin.

I had a leftover chicken breast with mayo/honey mustard on the side to dip in for lunch, and I found Diet Ocean Spray cranberry juice!  For a full cup (8oz) it is only 2 carbs.  ……..Juice!!  real juice!  LOL  I mixed it with some sprite zero and it was awesome!

I’m researching the ‘no drinking’ while on metformin thing,  he he he.  The more I read the more I see that people are drinking while taking it and it doesn’t effect them and that it is RARE to get Lactic Acidosis when combining the two.  But I haven’t had a drink since last April………………so I don’t need it, but it would be nice for my 50th to have a drink.INFO

I did find an imported NA beer that I like and have with Pizza or when I feel like a beer.  St. Paulie Girl’s NA beer is really good.  More like an ale taste to me.
