Yay! I finally got out for a run this week!

My week went like this:

Monday: nauseous, headache

Tuesday: a little nauseous

Wednesday: HUGE headache. In bed at 6, not really on purpose. Just thought I'd lay down for a minute...slept till the morning.

Thursday: Screw this low carb stuff. I ate a breadstick with lunch. I felt fine.

I think it took a day to get used to the medicine and then I think the rest of my problems were from not eating enough. I've lost 3 pounds since Sunday, but have been steady since Wed. morning. I don't want to lose any more weight.

So I had the kind of run you would expect after not running for a couple weeks. It felt better to be done than it felt to run.

I did, though, fall asleep at 7...slept till morning. I'm hoping I have more energy this weekend. Next week I double my dosage, so I don't really know what to expect.

Might run Friday. Just depends on time. Definitely will run Saturday.

Congrats and welcome back! Sounds like your meds are not fun. Hopefully things will get better on that front. You are in good shape and that goes along way in dealing with health issues. Hang in there.

Glad you're doing a bit better. I had one of those runs earlier this week. Hopefully the carbs won't be a big deal and you can indulge a little more when you get used to the higher dosage.

Wow. You've really been having a rough time. I'm glad you're feeling a bit better. I hope you're able to get everything worked out.

Surely high-fiber whole grain carbs are okay?! Sounds like you could use a little bread! Hopefully you get to feeling better soon.
