Home Again!

I got home from Toronto today! I did a ton of walking while I was there! That's the thing I love about where I was staying - it's right downtown, so you can walk practically everywhere! Toronto is so walker friendly, it's awesome!

While away, I feel like I ate a ton! Everything was just so delicious! From sushi, traditional Chinese, street meat and bubble tea, I had awesome meals all over the place! Of course, I also now feel like I won't need to eat for a few days, which is definitely not good! I'll have to weigh myself tomorrow to see if I gained any weight (I sure hope not!) Also, a note about the bubble tea: I totally guessed how much insulin to use. As far as I know, bubble tea is made with fruit juices, which is something I try to avoid as it sends my glucose level up. But coupled with the walking (the bubble tea place was a little ways away from where I was staying) all seemed to be okay.

The one problem with the trip was leaving. I was helping my bro move home, so we packed our bags to the brim! That was all well and good - except that I couldn't lift them for long. I ended up having to use the wheely suit cases while my bro had to carry the duffle bags, which was not cool. I'm also a bit worried that I hurt my back, so I'll have to be careful over the next few days. I'm hoping to do some yoga to help everything out a bit - stretching my back, and my calves from all that walking!

Now that I'm back, I'm also hoping to get back into using my fitness dvds (I know, I know, I haven't posted anything on Fitness Reviews since February!) My goal for this summer is to build an exercise habit, one that I'll be able to carry on this coming school year. I know this is going to be a bit of a challenge, as this coming school year is going to be tough. But I know I can do it!
