Consultants challenge!!

[Shazza41]

Attended my 6 month diabetes review yesterday, sugars had risen from 61-78. My own fault as I'd stopped monitoring carb intake and stopped exercising. My consultant hasn't changed any medication but challenged me to do couch to 5k in next 6 months.

Hubby and I are going out tonight for first time. I did it once before, once and my hubby did it for 5 weeks. I think my lungs are fit but my legs get tired. I have strong arms and legs but carry all my weight on my stomach!!! I know it's positive mental attitude so give me loads of support / tips to give me a boost please. Thanks

Go Shazza

Will keep you updated. I'd love to get to the point were I look forward to it but I think that's a long way off x

Oh well done. And what a sensible "prescription" from your consultant!️

 

[Squire Fulwood]

Can you write a blog with a weekly report. I am sure people will be interested.

 

[Shazza41]

Do you mean write a blog on here or just through this question?

Wishing you well on your journey @Shazza41

Yes, why not. You can tell us how you progress. Do it as a blog instead of posts and we can all follow your progress.

 

[Shazza41]

Sounds like a plan! I'll have a look how / were to do a blog on here x

 

[Shazza41]

Right back from my first outing. Before I forget how I feel, can someone tell me how to blog on here. I've looked and haven't got a clue!! Cheers

I don't know how to do it from the app. I know there's a blogs tab on the website
