Well, I haven't posted in a few days, its been busy with homework etc.. On Saturday we went to the circus, and I ate a bunch of junk that day. Not anything too unhealthy and in moderation but still. On a good note though, We had went outside and did a lot of walking after we returned home, went to the gym for a while and played some basketball. It was a good day. Sunday, I did not feel so well. Spent most of the day in bed, or in front of the TV, watching my Bears lose their spot in the Superbowl. I didn't eat a whole lot, but did have Arby's for lunch that day. so I felt bad about that. Today, I tried to start things out right. I had a yogurt for breakfast (even though I usually do not eat breakfast) about half of my cup of coffee, a smart ones meal for lunch, and salad and soup for dinner. Before Dinner we had went for a long walk and lifted weights in the gym. I did not eat nearly as many calories as I was allowed for the day, but did not feel hungry either. At about 630 I began to get very blurred vision, extremely dizzy and felt like I was not breathing right, and started freezing. Of course this sent me into panic attack mode, because I am at home alone with a three year old. I was unsure whether to eat something or if it would make it worse. So I decided to have a pudding and drink some water since I had just remembered I had almost NOTHING to drink all day, even though I had not been thirsty. I have struggled with that my WHOLE life, those who know me understand. But even when I was a baby. I have been to the hospital I cannot even count how many times in my life for IV fluids and dehydration. Anyways I still was not feeeling great and realized it was probably my blood sugar and my blood pressure from working out, reducing calories etc... same thing happened a few months ago. I ate a few tortilla chips and laid on my back. After about 40 more minutes I started to feel normal again. but then, as David was coming home from work, I had him stop and get some food because I was starving, so here I ate at 10pm.. I feel so horrible! I HATE the fact that I can go for multiple testing on my blood sugars for diabetes etc.. and it always shows borderline hypoglycemic (my whole life) and things like this happen, but not when I am being tested. I know a lot of it was my blood pressure I am sure from lifting weights etc... On days when I eat a lot more, like Saturday it does not happen. The stupid thing is that I was not even hungry to eat more most of the day. So now, I try to do good and my body rejects it. I hope this pattern stops at some point. ANYWAY, thanks for listening as I ramble on. I guess we will see on Wed when I weigh in, how this awful and at the same time great week went. Tomorrow it is supposed to be severe thunderstorms and possible tornado warnings with 60mph winds. The news people said not to go outside so I guess I will just take it easy tomorrow and do some cleaning around the house to burn calories. Floors need to be mopped. I am going to take a break from homework tomorrow too! At least I am on my last week of this 4 credit insane class!
