sleep dep or not

I went to sleep kinda late last night. 11:15. I know I have become a weakling but when you get up at 6:30 with your SO you change your sleep habits.

But the thing is I slept at least 7 hours. And I woke up feeling like a train wreck. When that happens usually getting myself to work improves things. Today it didn't. I feel like I might fall asleep any moment and I wouldn't be surprised if I did.

I don't deal as well with sleep dep as I used to. Like as a result of Sundays late night I fell asleep while getting e-stim at my PT place. The funny thing is that I always have them do the e-stim as high as they can before it hurts like hell. So you think that I would stay awake.

Nope.

God I wish that they could give me some advice about this besides work out more. I don't have more than 5 hours a week to work out and I spend that time at PT. Oh well I will see a doc for something else today anyway so maybe I will ask then.

So in any case I am going to try to stumble through this day. I don't know what will happen but I will try to make it through again.

Hypoglycemia

Being hypoglycemic is interesting. You have your ups and your downs. Crashing sucks and it scares the people around you who have never seen anyone fade like that. I have been bad for too long and I think the sleep problems and energy problems are related to it.

Everyone always asks what they can do to help. Should they not offer you sweets? Should they make things without sugar?

Ok so I am going to amend what I usually say, I usually tell people that I am going to eat what I want no matter what they do but obviously I have been too bad recently and I need to get back on the wagon so please help me.

BTW I am not giving up on having fun at Halloween parties so don't become obnoxious about this until November 2nd k?

1) Don't invite me along to things that involve only eating sweets... like don't say do you want to go get a piece of pie.

2) If I get a dessert always try to encourage me to eat a meal first.. that really helps.

3) Ditto with alcoholic drinks.

4) Don't bring sweets to my house and encourage me not to as well as I find that I eat them when they are there.

5) Finally and most importanly discourage me from drinking juices as they are the absolute worst thing for me sugar wise.

Otherwise what I have said in the past still stands. You will have a hard time getting me not to eat sugar if I feel like it, but help me remember how important it is for me not to have it. Especially since by eating sugar I become at great risk for developing Type II Diabetes.

Thanks guys.
