Sunday & Monday
Mar. 10th, 2026 08:45 amThe hockey game on Sunday was fun! Selfie IG picture at the linky here. I wore a sweater since it was a little warmer outside but we underestimated how cool it would be at the rink so we spent a hunk of money on jerseys and hats. Considering how much we enjoyed ourselves, we will probably go again sometime. It was SO nice to see people wearing and holding signs saying things like "In my women's sports era." Oh and the Sirens WON! WEEWOO! We were sitting next to an older couple from Canada who their daughter played for the Sirens. At the end of the game, he told us we were "lucky" and that we needed to come back. lol
In GLP-1 news, the effects do seem to wear off before your next dose. I don't know if that will change if/when I increase doses in a few weeks. I'm less concerned about the hunger shut off wearing off and more concerned that the morning blood sugar levels are slowly creeping back up. This morning it was 107. I won't be surprised if tomorrow morning if it's in the one-teens. I still have to be careful not to overeat, though, since even though there appears to be hunger, if I eat the wrong thing, I'm likely to feel cruddy after. This morning I was surprised to be awakened by a hungry tummy and shouldn't have had a biscotti with coffee right off the bat. The coffee was fine, but I need to keep to less empty carb things and more things like hard boiled egg/grainy toast with thin smears of unsweetened nut butter, etc.
I took yesterday off since I need to start chewing up vacation days and in the morning I filmed two roleplay videos for the channel (keep those ideas coming!) and in the afternoon, I drove to the YMCA and did about 45 minutes with the older farts in the exercise pool with the water weights. Between that and all the walking the day before at the game, I am a sore camper this morning. Gotta keep at it, though. I'm thinking I'll go back either Thursday or Friday afternoon.
Ooop, ok, work symposium about to start. I'm doing virtual but should pay attention.
