Update 11/30/11

I haven't been doing too great at keeping up with the blog. Same goes for the healthy lifestyle. I worked out twice since starting. I am looking forward to grocery shopping this week and looking for some new healthy recipes. I think part of the problem with motivation is that I know right now I can't eat healthy. There isn't much for "healthy" in this house. Ty has been working out as well and I can tell he feels better about himself already. Neither one of us are too proud at the moment because we haven't been doing nearly as much as we should be. I started slacking taking care of my sugar too. I haven't been checking it nearly as often as I should be, which means I'm not documenting anything like the doctors asked me to. I am going to try and get myself started and push myself more. I am not going to give up I will keep trying as many times as it takes. I am not going to let obesity and diabetes take over my life. On a good note I went to the doctors last week. My weight was 217 which is about 20 pounds less than I thought I was.
