I’ve lost two more pounds which I didn’t really think would happen this week because my appetite was almost out of control this weekend. Also my insulin level was higher, because most of what I was craving was high in carbs.
I feel really good about the weight loss I’ve experienced so far on the Symlin, because it is fairly slow — 2 pounds in a week is a lot for me, but I can definately say that starvation was not involved this time.
Also, the changes I’ve made in my life are definately sustainable.
I’ve been meeting some other goals — last night I was able to do 30 minutes on the treadmill without stopping. And it was at 2.7 mph.
I’ve been having to break up workouts due to either leg or foot pain, and will often do as little as 2 1/2 minutes at a time to get a workout down — In fact did that on Saturday, but primarily because I was trying to increase my speed to 3.0.
I’m off all next week, so in addition to getting all my medical issues dealt with — I’m seeing the surgeon, my CDE, and getting a Depo shot, I’m going to try to double my cardio workouts.
