So I seem to have got it all back under control today - ate the right things, etc.
I woke up this morning absolutely lethargic - pressed the snooze button twice before turning the alarm off and going back to sleep for another hour and a half - not good for my morning preparation!! I had 1/2 an hour to cram 1 1/2 hours worth of stuff into - and I did it! But I'd prefer not to have to!
I'm what they call "Not a morning person" - and now, without even caffeine to give me a kick, it takes heaps of effort to start up in the morning. I'm hoping along the way the new diet will help with that.
I did eat alot today - I think perhaps more than I should have - and definitely more fat than I should have. I'm finding it difficult to balance protein, fat and carbs - if I eat lots of protein, I end up with a WAY higher fat content than I'd like.
Then again, perhaps I need to concentrate on the fact that this is not a weight loss exercise, but a blood-sugar-balancing exercise. On the other hand, being overweight is not good for blood sugar either...
I found a new site today written by a family that all have hypoglycemia, and giving not only other net references, but food ideas, general advice, and a little bit of encouragement. Its www.keepinghappy.com and it's great - info from a mum about feeding her family, what's on her shopping list, research that she and her son have done....
Til tomorrow stay healthy & happy
