Day 14

Today was busy, busy…got a nice workout in, but half way through Harvest, our 6 year old daughter which has Type 1 diabetes blood sugar went low. Sometimes she drops like that and we have to ALWAYS have a carbohydrate available. The childcare is at the YMCA, but in another building. She has a phone and knows the symptoms when her sugar goes low. She called me and asked if we had something for her to eat and we rushed over and checked her blood sugar. It was low, not scary low, but low enough we had to give her something. She was and is fine, but we decided to go ahead and cut our work-out a bit short. It was almost time to stop anyway…

Still I hate when her blood sugar goes low and HATE that she has to struggle with this disease. I love her so much and she is so very special to ALL of us!!! She is one of the main reasons Jen and I started eating healthy and exploring exercise in the first place…Harvest has helped change our whole family dynamic and placed us all on the right path to a healthy and fulfilling life!

Harvest actually LOVES Myoplex shakes and they are really the perfect ratio for her : )  

Other than that we had to pick up some items from a lady Jen works with and had to pick up a few groceries. Jen and I both just finished Cardio about an hour or so ago and she is doing homework…Joshua, Harvest and I are watching UFC 121…Late here on the East Coast, but we’ll persevere!!!

Tomorrow we will find out our 2 week results …we will take pictures and do measurements.  We missed last week so decided to just do them every 2 weeks. After that we are taking the family out for breakfast at the Silver Diner, which uses organic and local sourced items on their menu when possible. The kids love it there and it will be our ‘free day’ – ‘free meal’. We then plan to go to a pick-your-own apple orchard located in Northern Maryland.

Alright…the fights await!
