I'm Melting

The past couple of days have been hot, not scorching hot or even damn hot, just plain old hot.  The temperature has been ~30 C and it has been enough to send around the bend.  Not from from run away sugars although that was happening on Sunday, but from the fact I just can't handle the heat any more.  I really don't know how to describe it, but I will give it a crack  For a start I feel physically off particularly in my head, the desire just to be really cool sit in front of a Air Con and emotionally I just don't cope well either I get cranky, the little things are to much and I really want to yell at somebody.   And to top that off the dread that my glucose levels are dropping, which was happing on Sunday, today i had a better handle on it a 20% reduction in Lantus meant that I was stable through out the day.  It really makes me think though if someone were to ask me what my dosage of Lantus was at the moment i would have to say somewhere between 16 - 21 because it it really does vary by that much.

On the weight-loss side yesterday and today have not what been highlights of self discipline  mainly due to Family engagements.  Yesterday I did not even bother to keep track of the Calories as I had way over shot my daily allowance by 11 am and it is just to hard to keep counting when the meal is finger food.  Today I did count and man stay away from puff pastry.  However at the end of the day I was under the net target which was good news.

For exercise I treated yesterday as a rest day and did not do any, today I gave the 6.5 k route another go, unfortunately I only made it to 2.5 km before my body said enough, I am not sure what it was (suspect heat) but I could not get my self moving again, all in all it means I did it in 52 min 10 minutes behind Saturday. Well tomorrow is a different day.
