Guest guest Posted January 25, 2002 Report Share Posted January 25, 2002 Hi, Phyllis..my house is a mess too. Right now I'm heavily involved in a creative project - an original design quilted vest -- and when I get into creative mode everything else goes by the wayside. (Another good example of being compulsive, smile)...Housekeeping? What's that? I exercise an hour after breakfast...before I have time to get into whatever else I'm going to be doing that day. Actually since I get up at 5:30, eat at 6 a.m. I'm still half asleep while I'm exercing, my brain isn't awake yet, so that's the perfect time to do exercise. And I get the pleasure of listening to a book on tape at the same time...an hour at the gym or 45 minutes of mallwalking (every other day)...and I'm wide awake and ready for whatever. For me, it's best to do exercise first thing in the morning when I'm really high energy. (obviously I'm a morning person)...Vicki << I hope I can get compulsive about exercise. Come on lets face it there are alot of things we could get compulsive about that are worse than our health. I could just see me and you sitting around all day taking our blood sugar! (LOL) Oh by the way, my house is a mess! >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2002 Report Share Posted January 25, 2002 <<Hi, Phyllis...being compulsive is actually an advantage when trying to control diabetes...as my daughter said to me, >> You have made such a good point. You must live and breath it everyday. That is why I love the list. No one I know would ever talk to me again if I talked to them as much as I do to you all. I will tell my daughter or my husband something someone on the list discovered about diabetes, that I am so excited about and they will just look at me.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2002 Report Share Posted January 25, 2002 I applaud you for exercising in the morning. That is one of my goals to see if it would work for me. I haven't quite gotten it yet. I still am going at 4:00pm. But, it is so hard to get there with everything going on. I beleive that if you do it first thing in the morning, then excuses won't get in the way. Phyllis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 Yup, that's why I do it before I get involved in anything else.
