Oh, Back To Strict

This week has been a real roller coaster on many fronts.  But out of it some good may have come.  

For a bit now I had been taking a point of view to just be positive even if it was faking it.  The positive would just become habit was the thinking stated in an article previously read.   Did not find that happening.  While reading an article in Tathaastu:So Be It, "Making Your Mind Your Best Friend", the point was made to not fight or ignore the negative thoughts but let them surface and then let them go. A little bit over simplifying here but the idea of not ignoring or pushing them down was what clicked.  While trying to practice it's advice I found moving forward was easier.  With the frustration down I decided to do some research in other areas.  There has been some signs of blood sugar imbalances again.  The eating was to plan and though exercise was not what I'd like it was there.  So went and looked up information on the liver, insulin intolerance and metabolic syndrome.  Found a few things that fell into place with the reading.  While thinking about the information, the past attempts and this time, noticed some patterns.  From this some thoughts for change came up.

1. Making a few changes to eating plan.  Going to work on the premise of insulin imbalance and follow that food plan while keeping what I can of You On A Diet.  

2. Going to try and get the pool back in along with more non cardio.  The foods eaten are important but strong exercise is a big key.  Every attempt has proven it, articles for imbalance covered it.  They mention far less than I was doing, but if that is what it takes then guess what.  As soon as the foot is back to workable then big time cardio comes back.  

3. Going to make a dental appointment.  Found several articles on dental issues and insulin imbalance.  Gums have been a big issue since my first son was born.  Looking back the better weight control has always been when this has been being watched on worked on.  It was not something I'd linked together before. 

4. Changing up how positive attitude is worked a bit.  Like mentioned before, work through the negative and go on.  May be a post on that subject later.   

The weight gone is a big issue but not having things turn into type 2 diabetes is even larger.  Worked so hard to get numbers in line and do not want any sign of it showing it's ugly head.  Determined to prove the gastric doctor wrong even if he is  nice fellow.
