Circuit Training

Now that I am a member at a health club of sorts, I have received my free session with a trainer.  She developed a program for me train my large and small muscle groups and perhaps strengthen my back muscles. I did a headstand two months after my daughter's birth and I did something to my back.  Not anything to my spine but it has been bothering me ever  since. I just hope I do not make it worse.  Oh well, gotta try something.  Massage therapy and accupunture is also on my list.

I am supposed to go around to these different machines and do 8-12 repetitions.  It will not take too long so I should warm up first on one of the climbing, cycling, or rowing machines, or a tread mill.  And go swimming afterwards.  Hmmm...can I do this three times a week?

I also got another test to check my absorption rate of food. I will get the results back in a few weeks.  While at the doctor I checked my weight, 63.2 kilos (139 lbs) with winter boots and clothes on.  So downwards it is to my goal of 56 kilos (120 lbs).  Right now I just feel a little discouraged.  So much to manage along with family and work.  Well, it IS manageable and I have to keep in mind my reasons for doing this.

The good/bad news is I didn't read my blood testing machine right.  My 31 day A1Cverage 9.8.  Still bad, but much better than 12!

Now to eat a egg or some kind of protein for breakfast. I think it helps me not get so hungry later in the morning.
Signing off with a sigh,
Mary
