MOUGHI's CalorieKing blog

Friday, Jan 25 2008 - Rainy days and Fridays

View MOUGHI's food & exercise for this day

Rainy days an Fridays is that how the song began? Today's PT session went off great. My formula of apple juice and water kept my blood sugar up as the new adjustments on my pump. The weather here is cold and wet which did make it hard to get these old muscles going though. I was able to walk on the treadmill at 1.5 speed for over 10 minutes without any pain. This is good. The treadmill said I ate up 30 calories. Whoppie! A whole 30 calories. OK, it's a beginning. I gave myself credit for the rest of therapy eating up 20 more cals. Stretching and ball work is bound to eat up some. I guess I basically exercised enough so I don't have to count the apple juice that I used to keep my blood sugar up. When I go into the pool I know I eat up more because water jogging is more strenuous.
My scale acted up this morning like a friends of mine. See Jenn, you're not alone. It first said I weighed 5 pounds more than I know I did. I had to beat it into submission. No, this scale has to be turned upside down and taped on the floor then placed on a flat surface in order to make sure it gives you a correct reading. It's been a real pain but I haven't found a scale that seems to be worth purchasing to replace it.
Well, this weekend I plan on getting in some series dog loving time in. I have been gone so much this week the little lovelies have felt neglected. I have dog that follows me around the house were ever I go. The other will go bury herself under blankets and be content for most of the day until hubby comes home. Then she's by his side the rest of the evening. Well it's scifi Friday ans Stargate Atlantis is on so you know were I'll be. See ya tomorrow.:cool:

Good job on the treadmill, it is a slooooow process, I have actually go up to using 200 calories a session now, it almost seems worth it. :D
Glad the apple juice worked out for you, I admire how hard you are working to keep your diet and health good!!! I am a dog and SciFi lover also. I have a shih tzu that rules the house but she also makes me laugh so hard. Have a good weekend.

Well, Lory - talking to you over these last few days has made me think of dogs more and more - and I think we've found one we're bringing home.
Not a "real" dog, by rights - but a cute little pomeranian aussie shepherd mix with a sparkly big dog personality.
He's 20 pounds, going on 60.
I'm very excited, as he seems a energetic, happy, loving beastie.
I love dogs.
Love them.
I'm so excited!
Yay!
