Wow.. the gliburide and this board has helped big time! I was getting really bummed out for the past 2 months. My endocrine system likes to put my body into "fight or flight" mode ever since my employer went bankrupt. Two weeks ago my morning wake up glucose readings was @210. I was eatling low carb and excercising,so I felt "defeated". I guess the 5mg of gliburide made the difference. I was 104 this morning. Since I’ve been normal I finally got to push myself while exercising again. I start out with alternate touch toes 30 reps then on to the exercise bike set to cross train level 8, 30 minutes @ 17mph, weights (curls, overhead press, iron cross), back on bike for 20 minutes @ 17mph, back to weights, crunches, and then hit the shower. It took a few days but now my morning wake up was at 104 and my high for the day is 140. Now hopefully all my job applications via monster and dice wil get me something. I’m getting phone calls but mostly "junk-mail" calls looking for contracting work.
The "Rock-Me" thread has helped me too.. I listen to a lot of music. When I work out I crank up the tunes and rock out.
My 18 year old is incredible on guitar and has a powerful voice. So I like to listen to him practice or him and his band play. All this time at home, after I get through the morning exercises, chores (my wife has nothing to do when she gets home, LOL), and job search I actually have found time to take out the blues harp. Here’s a video of what I’m actually learning how to play, it’s an old J. Geils tune. Whammer Jammer.. complete lesson here! WOW
