    Was hospitalized when I went for my routine appt since my BP was 87/61 and my heart rate was 132. Apparently I was dehydrated which I don't understand how as much water as zinc drink and I use the bathroom like 6x-8x a day. But they decided to try taking me off one of my Blood pressure pills we'll see what happens. .

    Comments: My weight is not moving down this week, but I am sticking to my plan because I know the scale will eventually move. My legs have been sore the last few days (which I rarely experience) so I think I am holding water through inflammation, or even better, building muscle. This week feels so off...this month feels so off. My work schedule is changing a bit, but any changes in my daily schedule, usually throw me off and I need a few weeks to readjust.

    The last 2 months have been awful. I canโ€™t seem to get back on track. Between 3 deaths in my family and my husband being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes (went to ER and his glucose level was 876!) I canโ€™t seem to get focused on my own health.

    Oh my that is all understandable. I'll be praying for you and your family ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

    I fell running when I stepped in a pothole. Bruised wrist. Swollen ankle, hamburger knee, ripped my favorite running tights and cracked my phone because it was in my side pocket of my tights.

    Hopefully tomorrow I can stay upright!

    As long as your progress okay. Stay off that ankle for few days and keep it elevated.

    Comments: Day 3 was good. Weird sometimes when I do something extreme that I have doubts about sticking to and it works but yet I can't stick to something simple like limiting my daily calories..which should in theory be easier....but for me it's not. Which is really why I say this a lot, diet is no one size fits all solution, you really have to find what works for you and stick with it.

    Didn't gain or lose so that's good. Hurt my foot last weekend stepping in a hole in the yard, and that messed up my training a bit. Gotta let it heal for the race. Then some rest then time to kick butt again.

    Comments: I have gotten lady with my yoga and cross training. Every time I do yoga it's like...ouch...oh yeah...right there...that's the spot. It always makes me feel good and ready for the day. Why don't I do it more often? It should be so easy to do because it's low intensity...but I just hate doing things slowly. I need to teach myself that sometimes you really do just have to slow down.

    Comments: The scale finally moved downward! I reached a new low but let's see if I can make it stick to weigh in day. Had a half good run this morning. The first half started out great but I forgot to drink water in the morning and only had coffee. To make matters worse I forgot to put a stick of gum in my mouth before I ran, so between the two my mouth was dry and I was so dehydrated. It wasn't a terrible second half but it sure could have been better. In any case, I'm really grateful to my body for allowing me to run again. Those two years I had to take off were so depressing. I did do other workouts, but nothing can ever replace running for me.
