My Health Goals

I Need to Make Some Changes

Lately I have been noticing that my clothes are feeling tight, my tops fit me fine but my shorts, skirts and pants are feeling tight on me. I have been so sick this year it made it impossible for me to exercise. 

Now that I am at the end of all my sickness, I have started to exercise again but I will admit it has been difficult to go for a walk of late because of the extremely hot days we have been having. Saying all of this I feel the need to set my self some health goals to help me be healthier and stay on track with my eating habits and exercise routine.

Health Goals

1. Lose Weight, I have been told that I should lose two-three Kilograms and I intend to lose the weight it will benefit my health in the long run.
2. Exercise Everyday, it is harder in hot weather to go for my walk however there is no reason why I can't go for a walk in the evening when it is cooler.
3. Avoid Low Blood Glucose Levels, Low levels can happen anytime anywhere and you eat just about everything in sight. If I can avoid low levels I won't consume so much junk food and sugar.
4. Focus on My Health, I need to remain focused when it comes to my health and I feel I am doing well so far.

In regards to Health Goal number four I am already focused on being healthier and I feel in control with my Diabetes. My Hba1c was done yesterday at my Specialist appointment and it is down to 7.1% I am so happy with this result, last year my result was 8.5% so I am on the right track.

It ultimately feels good to set these goals and know that when I complete these goals I will feel better within myself. I feel at my age and the problems I have it is highly important to look after myself more than what I do. I am ecstatic that I will be starting on the Dexcom G5 very soon and I know this will help me control my Diabetes a lot better and my Hba1c should come down even more.

I will document my progress on the blog and possibly on the Facebook Page and the Instagram account, It would be silly to set these goals and not document the process so I will do a blog post in a couple of weeks documenting my progress.

I hope you enjoy this post and don't forget about the Facebook Page Type One Diabetes & Life and Instagram t1djenna11.

Have a great weekend everyone,

Until next time
