Spinin with the Mrs's....


Spin class was awesome tonight! It was hard, fun, fast and really helped me get a good work out..

The only thing that could have made it better would have been if my wife had gone with me.....

OH WAIT!!!!!


SHE DID!!!!!! What a blast to have my honey next to me in spin class! She outlasted life five of the younger ones who where so, um, buff? No, that is huff huff... Cause they were huffing and puffing then leaving as me and my honey where moving and grooving!

Amen.. Spin is where the hardcores go! Me and Jenifer Leilani did the class from start to finish....

Those other kids? Maybe they went home to bed..... ;)

Update with pictures of my progress...

Me a few months ago.

Living Large.. But not much longer at this size...
Another angle..

Another shot of me a few months ago.

 
Me today              .
I am not thin today. But I am thinner. I feel better, much much better.....

I did a spin class today and it was awesome!!

I feel great, look healthier and sleep better....



I still have a way to go. But at least not as far as when I started...

My spin class was fun today not just very hard and very tiring.. I remember when I could not stand up and sit down with the rest of the class....

Now I can... And I enjoy it!! 

My belly today......








Watch it shrink.... For the first time in a long time, I truly believe I can.

New shoes mean better spins.....

This  is a sweaty me after spin class. For the last two or three classes my feet have hurt because they are too big for the pedal straps. SOOO, I made a promise to myself a month ago. - If I kept up going to spin class at least 3 times a week, I would get myself a pair of bicycle shoes.... 
Well yesterday.Jenifer Leilani and I went to the store and got some for me!!...
The clip helps hold me in the bike and my feet don't hurt!!
They are comfortable and it is easier to work the pedals.
Still get sweaty though..

I am beat! So, what am I gana do now? Get ready for work!!!!

Ahhhh life... It just keeps coming at ya... Down to 227 now... Next goal - 220.....

Saturday and yes I am still a diabetic but......

Hit the 220's.... I weighed in at 228 this morning.... I have not been that low in a long long time. My goal right now is 200 but the thing is I am not dieting...I am just eating more healthy.... Funny thing about this picture is that not all the food in it is food I would eat...

















And the classes...We tried to go to Santa Fe today but missed the train... So, I also missed a class.. But I am going to hit the Wii fit tonight and see if I can get a good workout in...
















I am still working with my food... Trying to see how much to eat, what to eat, when to eat...


My levels are way down... I had a reading of 98 today which is awesome even though I am sure my dinner reading with be higher...

That's OK though.. It is still much lower than the 219 I started out with...

What am I talking about? Check out this cool video...

So, I am type II. I am being told that I may now be back to Pre-Diabetes levels.. My blood sugars are getting lower over all each day.. Funny, in researching I also found out something my mother-in-law had mentioned,,,, Cinnamon! This stuff, in small amounts is supposed to help your blood sugar levels! Well, I can certainly try it... But I am still not stopping the exercise and way of eating I am doing...


A 2003 Pakistan study found that a gram of ground cinnamon a day seemed to help lower blood sugar. According to one of the researchers, people can get that with a quarter- to a half-teaspoon of store-bought cinnamon twice a day or in cinnamon capsules that are sold over the counter. Another option is ground or stick cinnamon in hot water


Worth a shot!

That's all for now..
