Change for Me

So, I have a new doctor now.  My original doctor has moved out of the area.  Jerk.  Although I will say that after the initial visit, my new doc seems pretty nice.  I'm also officially diabetic.  I may need to hook up with a CDE.  I would ask my dad for help and info since he's diabetic too, but Dad is a little too militant for my taste.  His answer to "Can I eat that?' is always no.  Or just don't even try to or eat that and you'll get used to not having it.  While I'm sure that's true, I'm just not ready for that level of it to be perfectly honest.  I kind of wish I had the money to be able to do the Nutrisystem D for a year or so just to get used to what is out there.  It would be awesome if I could have a personal chef.  Just take over the cooking for me so I don't have to worry about it.

I'm actually doing good not having the sweets.  I haven't sworn off them completely, but I am definitely doing significantly less than I used to.  My weakness is and always will be breads.  Carbs are my frenemies.  As long as I get something sweet each day I don't feel like I am missing out on anything.

As far as exercise goes, I am still not going at the level I was this time last year.  I have gotten lazy.  I have no excuse for it.  Just damn lazy.  I do have a set of peddles from Gold''s Gym here at home.  I've been using those quite a bit the past week or two.  I will be sitting on my ass watching tv and just peddling away.  I usually go somewhere between a half hour to an hour.  I have noticed that my thighs seem slimmer as a result.  When I've got on jeans and I'm walking around, I feel the motion between my thighs more than I used to.  Like my thighs aren't so fat they are pushed together anymore.

It's the craziest thing to be excited over, but my thighs almost don't touch anymore!
