Woke up soon after 3am and couldn't get back to sleep. went for a run at 6am along the coastal path. finished week 6 of the couch to 5km app - 25 mins jogging with no walking breaks. super chuffed. finished off with a walk along the beach spotting jellyfish n crabs, before getting the bus home. Cooked breakfast for the 3 of us, made my kids packed lunch, got them ready and out the door w Reuben. Showered. Exhausted. But good.

Knowledge is power

Well my meals seem to be more and more vegetarian, infact so much so that i am toying with trying a vegan diet.  Had some dried fruit earlier and my blood sugars hit the roof but at least ive learnt from that one.  The thing that really surprises me is the lack of information that i have had from the medical profession.  I mean apart from being diagnosed and told what a health meal plate looks like, i really have been left a lot in the dark most of what i know now comes from online sources.  You really have to arm yourself with as much information as possible.

Good news is the scales have hit 13 stone 13, that means ive lost over 2 stone now and am overweight rather than obese.  Also managing to jog for 25 mins on the tread mil on my couch to 5k program, to think i used to struggle to do 90 seconds not that long ago.  I also check my bloods fairly regularly and find them in the acceptable range 4 to 7 and am learning to eat to my meter as they call it online.

I guess I should start this page back up now thT I’m three weeks in to working out. Once I hit the fourth week maybe it will stick finally once and for all and I won’t quit or keep starting over. Pray for me lol. #couchto5k #cto5k #c25k #running #workout #fitness

Finally went for a proper run outside after 2 weeks on the treadmill. Ran/walked 7.69km in 53:50 which is a new record for mee! So much progress and I'm only on week 4 of couch to 5k. Had a bowl of roasted chickpeas, rice and veggies for lunch and watched outlander. Wasn't very productive after that lol
