enjoying the gym

So, last night I stopped home to change and get Tom to go to the gym. Tom said his sugar felt low, so I checked it...89. Okay so I gave him a yogurt and we were on our way. Pull in the parking lot and he says he is still low. I check it again and it's 68! No working out for Tom. We had sugar tablets with us, so he ate 3 of them. He insisted that I get my workout in and that he would stay in the van. I did do my workout and it felt really good. I did 32 minutes on the eliptical keeping my heart rate above 140 for the entire time. Then I did 12 minutes on the treadmill doing 1 minute walk, 1 minute run and so on. Went back to the van and Tom was just fine. Blood sugar was up to 198.

We then had dinner out. That is a scary thing to do for me when I'm trying so hard to eat right. The burgers are soooo tempting, and those yummy fries with tons of ketchup. I stayed on track though. I had a tossed salad w/ranch on the side and only dipped my fork in the ranch and then stabbed by salad. Barely used any of the ranch. The little cup was still 2/3 full when I was finished and I was satisfied. I also had a cup of chicken noodle soup and a cup of decaf.

Today I've had 1 cup oatmeal w/15 fresh raspberries, 1 teaspoon coconut oil and 1 tsp brown sugar. 2 cups of tea w/skim milk and splenda and a bottle of water.
My snack at 10:30AM was raw broccoli, cucumber and cherry tomatoes.

Lunch is a lean quisine pizza.

Dinner: chicken breast, mashed sweet potatoes, steamed broccoli.
