I feel like such a Negative Nancy right now and I don't like it. Weeks
of dealing with adjusting to new medication, an almost non-stop three
week migraine, medication-induced vertigo and nausea are really taking
their toll.
I've still been doing fine with food and have actually been losing
plenty of weight -- 8lbs last week alone -- but my activity has taken a
nosedive.
Since my blood pressure has been stable for the last two weeks (thank
god!), the doctor has cleared me to do whatever activity I want, I just
don't feel up to it.
It's difficult to push when my head hurts and I feel like I'm going to
throw up or pass out. I haven't worked out since last weekend. I tried
one afternoon earlier this week, but it was a calamity of errors and
didn't happen.
I need to just be patient with myself, give myself time, and not be so
hard on myself.
I'm still eating right, I'm still making progress, I
just have to keep moving forward.
I'm going to at least try to get in some pool time today. If I can get
some treadmill time, that'll be a bonus. My sister is coming later today
so I don't want to overdo it and feel crappy while she's here.
Time to pull myself up by my bootstraps and keep moving.
