Stress: It'll Sabbotage Anything

I've read several things that say stress will sabbotage a diet/exercise program, so avoid it. Um.. this concept eludes me because who wants stress? If I could just eliminate it, wouldn't I have done so years ago? I will have stress until death do us part, and probably still after that. I just can't win. Loser to the bone.

The wait for blood results is killing me. I want to know how bad, NOW. Not when they get to it, not when Cecy feels like sending me a letter, NOW. I've done the usual "me thing" and looked up diabetes symptoms online. Duh. Bad move.

*Frequent urination .....CHECK
*Excessive thirst .....CHECK
*Extreme hunger .....CHECK
*Unusual weight loss .....(I wish)
*Increased fatigue .....CHECK
*Irritability .....CHECK CHECK
*Blurry vision

So five out of seven, plus? I've had TWO pregnancies with babies over 9 pounds which is also can be a factor and my mother and maternal grandfather both have/had diabetes. While I was typing that I found a widget that said I was at risk for pre-diabetes. Fabulous. How long does it take to get results? Grrr.

Thanks to my neighbor I've started watching Fit Tv. Every day at 10 I do Bodies In Motion with Gilad. I actually feel like I've had a workout when I'm done. I sweat my ass off every time. I just wish I was more coordinated because damn. I am going to fall on my face one of these days! But... the Wii said I was down another 1.3lbs today from yesterday. My scale in the bathroom has a mind of it's own. The digital sucks in a way because I can step on it 3 times and have 5lb variations. Ridiculous. I should still be pleased, but... again... the instant gratification thing. I would have thought my goal would would have been met.... but 30lbs in 4-5 weeks was asking a lot. Grrr. I hate my brain more than I hate my body sometimes.

I am going to take a long hot shower and enjoy every blessed drop before stepping back into reality.
