“Big dog” — (Marcie) — is a beagle. Most people think of beagles are very stubborn dogs. Many of them are quite aloof.

My husband and the people at the gym think it is a good thing though…

The exercise thing is going well so far this week.

Tried a Glucerna meal replacement bar again today, and it worked out pretty well. It’s more carbs than I am used to, but saves a stop to pick up break if I’m running late. Or stopping to cook.

I had a lot of problems this week with being tired, and as a result did some uncontrolled eating, so I’m going to try to plan better.

I’m also taking my first trip as a diabetic — I need to go to Austin for a teacher workshop. I’m taking Friday to get there, staying there Friday night and Saturday night and coming back on Sunday. I’m staying at a suite type of hotel, which I’ve found is the best option. In the past, when staying at a regular type of hotel, I wake up to every noise. This hotel has the bedrooms on the side opposite of the corriders and that has helped in the past.

I’m also taking my food with me. I’ve got a really nice cooler that plugs into the truck or the wall in a hotel room and has worked in the past. That will help me stay on track better.

Went to the grocery store and picked up plenty of low-carb snack foods, cheese, mostly. I find I do better if there are more good choices in the house then poor.

Anyway, I’m going to focus on keeping stress low, and not getting too tired. Hope that solves the food problems.

I did it again….

I am absolutely exhausted and on my way to bed, even through it’s 6:18 pm. Hopefully I can sleep most of the night.
