Regular Diet: Low Glycemic Index Diet. When it comes to main dishes, I love hamburgers, Italian food, sandwiches, rice dishes, and buffets. Usually, regrettably, I eat salads and vegetables.
Activity Level: Medium-Low.For exercise, I walk sometimes, but I find it boring unless I’m at a theme park. Because of arthritis in my hip, I feel best using an exercise glider several times each week.
Sleep and Stress Levels: Sleep has always been hard for me, and I’ve noticed that my weight fluctuates most when Im under emotional duress and stress. Unfortunately, I care very much about my family and am always worried and concerned for their welfare.
Daily Water Consumption: 6-8 cups, I love water.
Physical Restraints: Even after having many children, I stayed an ideal weight, but then I experienced some Adrenal Issues, and then my Thyroid Failed, causing me to gain almost 200 extra pounds in a very short period of time. I’ve been fighting an uphill battle to regain a healthy weight ever since. The joys of getting older is that I get to see my children grow and become parents of their own, the pains of getting older for me include Arthritis in my hips, Diabetes, debilitating Migraines, and one past heart-attack.
Personal feelings about wanting to live healthier.
I love being a mother and a grandmother, and I will never stop trying to heal my body. I’ve learned so much over the years and have lost a great deal from being my heaviest (300 lbs) to what I am now. A stablized blood sugar, and a peaceful life seem to be the magic switch for me, but I’m hoping to gie insight to others who struggle with similar problems, that we too can overcome!
