I’ve been trying really hard to get to the gym more frequently. I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes a few weeks ago and my doctor and I are trying to regulate my blood sugar.

Because of my age and my activity level, she is going to see how effective a new diet and one oral medication will be. My doctor has warned me that insulin injections are probably in my future and I have to try really hard to do whatever I can to keep my blood sugar down on my own.

So I should be going to the gym right now. I thought about hitting the treadmill and then lifting some weights–it’s been a couple of days since I lifted anything and my arms have finally recovered from the last time I lifted (Monday).

I’m still doing good with my yoga routine–every Friday. I am thinking about adding the Wednesday yoga class to the routine, and I was going to give it a try this last Wednesday but I had a 24-hour bug that kept me in bed for most of the day.

I’m just having a hard time motivating myself to get off of my bed (I got a laptop last weekend so I can now blog in bed!) and get in my car and go to the gym.

UPDATE: I ended up going and spending one hour on the tread and another 40 minutes lifting. And I feel like a million yen!
