Yesterday I lifted BIG!! Well, for me.
I deadlifted 2 sets of 75 lbs after a warmup set of 45. I felt strong! I also enjoyed the arm exercises like dumbbell presses and pull downs. This is a slow progression, working out like this where there is a day in between each workout, but I see progress so that is cool!
Woke up 201 this morning, but I think it is due to my lack of sleep.
I didn't get to sleep until 1AM and woke up at 6 to the sound my my daughter rustling around the house - I hope to nap later.
Sleep can really mess with my blood sugars. I took an extra half until on top of the usual 1 until of Humalog I take in the morning to cover my "get up and go" hormones that bring my numbers up every morning. I will also workout a bit lighter on cardio to keep things nice and easy peasy.
I don't want to add to the stress of lack of sleep by pushing my body too hard in cardio.
Basal still at 6.5 Lantus AM and same at 8PM.
I am getting near my time of the month as well so that could easily play into why I'd wake up higher. It is so fun being a girl with diabetes!!!
