I noticed something this morning, I haven't been checking my blood sugar as often as I usually do. It has been my habit for the past 3.5 years to check it as soon as I get up and 2 hours after eating either lunch or dinner. I am falling out of the habit because every time I check, it is awesome. I checked my meter just now and my 30 day average is 88 with N=37. In the past N would have been at least 60, but usually closer to 70. I guess I am getting more confident in the realization that I really don't need to take any medications to have a stable, great,and completely normal non-diabetic blood sugar reading.
I ran my longest distance this morning 2.5 miles. My pace is still really slow because I am running for 5 minutes and walking for 1.5 minutes, rinse and repeat. I am ahead of schedule with the C25K. When the program tells me my workout is complete to begin cool down, I run another segment of run/walk. I just don't feel ready to stop and want to increase my mileage. I am amazed at how energetic I feel on the days I run as opposed to my rest days. Yesterday I was a sloth all day. Saturday is my Sabbath day so I observe the day of rest completely.The only thing I did yesterday was go to church, post here, and read. I felt sluggish all day. I have decided I need to watch less TV. It just encourages me to be lazy. I am going to limit my time in front of the TV to 1 hour every other day. I want to be more productive in other areas of my life and this is one way to do it.
Have a great Sunday everyone!

i think they're past injuries. I could workout and get over the soreness. The aces and pains I have now are muscle soreness, but my bones and joints, possibly the tendons in my feet too. But despite the pain, I won't stop. I'll continue going and hope it just goes away and hope I'm wrong too. I know I'm not as strong as I used to be, so thats playing a role. I have to get stronger before I get any older.

I need to get stronger too @Newme17. I used to be able to do 45 sit ups and now it hurts after 5. I got a cramp so bad one night after doing them my dh thought I was dying. It brought tears to my eyes.
Anytime you want to come down your are welcome to run with me @Sweet as peaches. It would be so much fun. My dh would run with me on the weekends but he had knee surgery 2 years ago and he can't run without pain.
