Ok I'm gonna be back in here tomorrow! I've had a few upsetting days with my diabetes but I'm getting back on the bike before this thing kills me. The swelling in my legs won't go down and other complications due to this illness so if I don't get busy I will die. Could you guys please give me some encouragement? I'd really appreciate it...you guys are super!

Twinkie, every little bit helps; baby steps. Be sure you involve your dr when you do any sort of exercise; you don't want to do something that will make your conditions worse.
With any precautions from your dr in hand, I am sure you can find tons of exercise activities that will be to your benefit.

Twinkie, You have the heart and soul to get through it all... Just remember to put as much love and patience into yourself, love and be patient with yourself as you would one of us or anyone close to you. Sometimes we become so frustrated, we forget the first act of kindness, and that is be kind to ourselves. Dawna Markova who wrote a book called "No Enemies Within", it is how she learned to change her personal language she had with herself, and in doing that she was also able to heal her cancer from killing her, for example.

When my illness gets me, it is hard to keep going, my doctor said to listen to my body. So on good days, give it more, on bad days, even a short walk will be ok, and on really bad days, nothing is ok too, your body needs to rest.

Hugs to you Twinkie....

Thanks, Shadoe! My doctor told me to just get moving and the only thing I have is the exercise bike. So, I'm going to get on that this afternoon and evening. I'd walk but I don't live in the best neighborhood for that. So, I'll be back later to post my results for today. Thanks again!

Twinks, go here: http://www.diabetes.org/home.jsp and put in your zip code. If you haven't checked out local support type groups, do it!! The doctors are great for info but real people living with diabetes, in your own area, that will be a great resource..

And please post any exercise you do, here!! You have a built in cheering section, ya know. Heck, post your blood test results if you want and we'll cheer for that progress.

I was a good girl today, left the house at 8:30am, did all my classes, and a seminar too and didn't even turn on feeds until they came back up after the eastern run of BB.

Thanks, Seahoney and Yankee! Sea, I'll check out that site tomorrow. I'm not quite ready to be posting my blood sugars yet cause they aren't so great but I'm getting there!

Dolphin, thanks so much! Those are some real words of wisdom I need to take to heart. I don't work nearly hard enough at taking care of me. You have spurred me on! Thank you!!

Well I do understand about the blood levels..

But every minute you work out is precious to us and what I've learned is not to beat up on myself when don't exercise. I used to go into a downward spiral and feel I was bad or hopeless, so I'd not exercise, yet again. Now I've gotten so if I do take days off, when I didn't really want to, I just know I have to get up and get out there. And I know I always feel so much better once I get out and try to get on a roll day after day..

Your welcome Twinkie, I had a hard time learning to be nice to myself. I was always nice, caring and giving to someone else, but I was never able to turn it towards myself, even in my language when I talked to myself LOL you know when you do something kind of silly, instead of laughing it off, we generally say, Well stupid, and then put ourselves down. Well I learned in them moments, I just laugh and say goofy me and I get wrapped up in my laughter and enjoy it... Then I remind myself it is ok I am human lol.... I am glad it helped. Hugs...

Sea and Hermi, if you could watch me (and thank heaven nobody can) crawling around the floor, trying to get into these weird, wholey unnatural positions, groaning and moaning and trying to remember to breathe, you would fully understand the term "trickle exercomics".

45 mins today.

TTD - 8,155 mins
GTTD - 75,455 mins

Hey, Twinks! Easy does it. You are better off starting small and gradually increasing your exercise than to burn out right at the start and then giving up, something you can't afford to do with your condition.
So, if your hiney is not leathery enough yet to take more than 15 mins in the sattle, then that's all you do for this week. Next week, maybe 20 etc.
You sound like me, probably been pretty inactive for some time and that takes a lot of doing to get back into the swing of things.
Hang in there, we are happy with any minute you post here. Before you know it, you'll push Sea off the pedestal, you'll see.

LOL, Lumbele! I know watching me exercise wouldn't be a pretty thing..

Go, Twinkie, GO!

KLUNK! (that is me falling off pedestal)

And count it if you walk somewhere. I include minutes that are certainly not aerobic but the more I move around, the better..
