I was exhausted…
Yesterday I worked all day. As I was heading out, I started sneezing…and it was there all day. I started feeling very run down. Came home and went straight to bed. Then passed out. Woke up around 1:00 am, and then back to sleep…up at 9:00am…And now, I am sleepy again. I must be fighting a bug.
Having my period too…yesterday was the first bad day. Taking iron, echineacea, vitamin C, Vitamin A, and E.
This week was pretty good…I logged all week and (if I exercise today) got all my exercise in too. Didn’t meet the 1200 cals…but stayed very close to the 1500…so that was good!
Began adopting the biggest loser plan…the best part for me was less carbs…much less…and adding a lot of protein. The protein took off the edge that I sometimes get when I get hungry. It was like the hunger would come more gradually, instead of just making me feel crazy for food…and compulsive.
Did great with the fresh fruit, but still need to eat more veggies. If I could just plan to eat a big salad every day I think that would take care of it! Still need to watch the nuts…my hubby loves them, and eats them in front of me…so that makes it harder….no excuse…just the reality of it.
The scale is right at 240…and even went to 239 this week…so it is still just hovering. But hoping that will change soon. Feeling hopeful since I am on my period…that it is probably lower than that. It was all the way up to 242 when I got back from my vacation.
Also hoping my period will be better on Monday…cause I meet with my trainer, Shana for the first time. Woop Woop!
Excited, but also nervous. We originally talked about getting together 2 times a week, but I proposed the same price for 3 times and she agreed! Yeah!
What will she have me do? Will I be really sore? How much will we be able to do in 30mins? Will it fit in my schedule?
Found out yesterday one of the customer service people is going to be gone for a couple of days, and that is when they usually call me to fill in, so that will make scheduling with the trainer harder. But I know God will work it out for me…and I’ll have more $ to pay for the training!
Well…I think I am going to take a nap…sleep off this bug and get some much needed rest.
Hope you all have a great day!
I am feeling your pain today. I feel like I have been hit by a bus. I was going to go in and work more overtime today and I could use the money. I am just staying home so I don’t miss any work time….
Hey girl, I sure hope you get to feeling better soon! Sweet dreams.

I hope you feel better today - don’t push too hard - if you are fighting something and you are on your TOM then working out may be too much….a little rest may be just what the doctor ordered….
Take care of yourself lady…=)
sending a virtual hug!
Feel better soon, how come we all got it? I’m just getting over it!
I hope you’re feeling better soon! Especially in time for your first meeting with your brand new personal trainer. :o)

Must be something going around here too. Even though I had a flu shot I caught a stomach virus earlier in the week and was in the hospital, I was so sick and dehydrated I was on an IV and didn’t lose a thing this week. Someone told me that there is saline in those things… that why no loss.
So I was sick and didn’t lose either. Bummer. But at least I’m home and feeling well enough to go to church this morning. 
I hope you feel better soon.
Hope you feel better soon. Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest.
hey, just FYI on the hunger thing….
FOR ME, may not fit everyone, but i noticed that IF, i fight through those hunger pains for 2 days (long time, i know!!) that not only will they not be there any more, i also see a drop on the scale!!
i finally realized that and now get kinda excited when those hunger pains come “alright!!!” it makes it easier to get through…
get some rest for now, with NO WORRIES!!!
I have a bug tooooo. I work with kindies and they have splattered all over me for 2 weeks. Ahhhhhh chooooo.
Going to chew some ginger.
I got to spend the week-end with wading in the “crimson tide” myself, so I feel ur pain…and a bug on top of that…ugghh…hope you feel better soon!
One of the best things I learned from training for marathons, is to listen to my body. Our bodies are amazing and they ALWAYS try to tell us what they need, if we actually listened, we would be in better health. BUT it seems like your body is speaking LOUD and CLEAR to you now and you are taking notice, so rest up!! Your body needs it.
Let us know how things work out with Shana, your new trainer!
