May 17:
5k race with friends
10k on my own
148 calories over
38 carbs over
Did not weigh myself
For the 5k, one friend who just started running wanted to finish in under 36:00 so I ran pace for him. He finished in 35:25. I counted the steps for the 5k run, but didn't log the additional calorie burn. I didn't count steps or calorie burn for the 10k on my own, hence why my calories are over. I burned ~1,000 calories running that weren't logged.0 -

Migraine headache - no exercise
37 under calories
29 under carbs
.8kg down from last weigh in
I got a migraine yesterday that left me curled up in a ball, in the dark, with an ice pack as the only source of relief. I only get migraines about three times a year but holy Christ do they lay me out. I eventually fell asleep and woke up fresh as a daisy. Looking forward to my run this morning.0 -
Awesome job Jolene!0

Breakfast at McDonald's this morning and it was delicious. I know McDonald's gets a lot of flack for having "unhealthy" options, but the reality is that McDonald's is a business who meets the convenience needs of the majority, not the nutrition needs of the dieting minority. It's also true that the people who complain about the unhealthy food at McDonald's fill their pantries with foods far less healthy than McDonald's fare. Or who will eat an 1100 calorie salad from Chili's and say it's healthy.
Today I had an Egg McMuffin with only half the muffin, a hash brown (150 calories of worth it), half a Fruit 'n' Yogurt Parfait, and a small coffee. It was perfect and only 440 calories. No regrets on that breakfast, y'all. No regrets at all.0 -

No exercise - I have strep
219 calories under
23 carbs under
The inability to swallow impeded the ability to get sufficient calories. Such is life. I've got antibiotics and am looking forward to feeling better. Hopefully in time for a run today.0 -
Strep is awful! If it were me I would definitely take (at least) one more day off for recovery. I hope you get better soon.0

Today (May 23) I am feeling a bit better, but not top notch yet.0 -
Be kind to yourself and listen to your body - it looks like it's telling you to take it a little easier, perhaps it's time to recharge your batteries.0

Still sick as hell
6 hours gardening (absurd amount of calories burned)
705 calories remaining (I ate ~1600)
32 carbs over
Contacted the Dr about the persistent strep. I'm getting a heftier antibiotic tomorrow, since what I'm taking should have resolved any symptoms by now.0 -
Today is a day of cooking for me. I'm making sauerkraut, mayonnaise, yogurt, beef stock, and cheese. I set some sun tea out to brew this morning, which will be delicious. The weather outside is glorious and I really wish I could run, but the gardening yesterday left me very sore in the "everywhere" area, so I won't push it.0

No exercise (because I can't breathe)
67 under calories
40 over on carbs
I was willing to eat whatever I would stay down. Succeeded in keeping everything down, but I could barely function all day. I lay on the couch and only got up to eat, drink, or medicate. This is the most sick I've been in a decade.0 -

Went for a short walk up Mt. Carbon
261 calories over (worth it)

Tomorrow I'll actually step on a scale and see where this sickness has left me. My activity has been so very, very low with the exception of Saturday's gardening. My pants are sagging, so I know my composition has changed, but I'm not thinking the scale will have moved much.
We shall see. I'm exhausted after my walk and ready for sleep.0 -

Feeling on the up, finally. My run was short and hot; I ran it with my daughter. Felt AMAZING to be back outside. Looking forward to easing back in to push-ups and crunches.0 -
