Clean Eating 6/25 — birthday cake for coworker didn’t help
Cardio Session 9/35
Strength Session 8/28
One thing I’ve found through my log books, etc. is that the strength sessions do more to pull my blood sugar levels down long term than just about anything I do. Cardio helps short term, and don’t I know it. I went from 50 minute sessions per iShape to 20, and from 6 a week to 4 and man am I seeing higher blood sugars — not bad just higher – and using more insulin.
Since the second person asked — first, I think starting later on today I’ll expand the entry abit, and I did post when I started it …
It’s something that one of the iShape members came up with, and it’s called a Challenge.
CE = Clean Eating
CS = Cardio Session
SS = Strength Session
Over a fixed period, I think we’re doing 6 weeks right now, we pick the number of days we’ll do each. That’s the second number.
The first number is where we are now.
So if you do a cardio session on a day, you add to the first number.
It’s a head game, but one I’m finding works for me.

After I went to the dentist I had to eat something chewy and the Diet Gourmet food wasn’t. So I tossed it. I did do pretty well, instead of ordering the full dinner with sides from El Chico, I got the Chicken Chimichunga, cheese sauce, hot chips and cold hot sauce. Skipping rice and or bean calories.
So much better choice that in the past. I was good to go on the blood sugar 2 hours after (even a tad low), but was at 235 4 hours after. That’s definately a extended bolus meal.
