[Diabetes-talk] victoza

[Robert Shelton]

I agree with all you say.  And, the one thing my sweety has a big problem
with is exercise.  She eats reasonable portions and good healthy food, but
hard to get her off the couch.  She has lupus, which contributes both to the
diabetes and the soreness that makes exercise difficult.

When I worked as a fitness instructor and ballet dancer, I told people to
not look at losing weight as a diet because this implies a temporary state
of living when food, nutrition and exercise needs to become an entire
lifestyle adjustment that is permanent. One, start eating healthy portions.
This is key. Two, eat foods that are better for you
nutritionally: whole wheat and grains, lean meats, low-fat dairy, fresh
fruits and veggies, beans like chickpeas and garbanzo and lima, etc.
Three, exercise needs to be a part of daily living. Activity of any kind to
get the heart rate up and then toning. We act like this is so difficult, but
when you think about it, it's really not. I do allow for one day a week when
you can eat what ever food you just can't live without, though still in a
moderate portion size. Whether it be chocolate, buffalo wings, fast-food,
cookies, chips-- whatever your pleasure is. If needing to lose a large
quantity of weight, you can cut back on calories, but in order to remain
healthy and maintain weight loss, you can't yo-yo diet or lose weight then
go back to old habits.
Adjusting our mindsets to a lifestyle change is more constructive and
productive when trying to lose weight and just healthy living in general.

Having said all that, I'm finding it difficult to exercise with Baby, smile.
I get a lot of physical activity in a day just from dealing and playing with
him, but to actually exercise, boy, it's tough finding the time especially
time when I'm not exhausted, sigh. Somehow, I've managed to lose almost all
the weight in seven months, but I need to work on the toning again.
Something tells me this is a life-long struggle, grin.

And of course, we all here have to consider our diabetes. I'm likely to drop
when exercising, so I try to do physical activity after meals. I test before
and after too, but it can be crummy when a low blood sugar, or high one for
that matter, gets in the way of exercise. Just another level to our daily
life, sigh.

There are so many ways to get weight off, I am doing pretty well.
Holding my own. I hope it isn't a long night.
