Feeling Off
For the past two weeks I have been feeling a little off. I have struggled with low energy levels all of my adult life. I go through every day feeling tired from the moment I get up until the moment I go to bed! It is exhausting, let me tell you. Well that all changed when this challenge started. Don't get me wrong, I'm still tired, but the good kind of tired you get when you know you have worked hard!! Believe me, I have worked harder than ever before and I have loved this new found energy. I have not only accomplished so much exercise, but quite a bit in my every day life :) YIPPEE!! However, things have taken a downhill turn. For the past 2 weeks I have been completely exhausted and have had severe muscle pain. Yes, I know I have a chronic illness that causes those two symptoms, but I have never felt it to this degree!! I find myself dozing off at all times of the day totally unable to keep my eyes open. Weights that weren't bothering me are now making my muscles shake in protest. The eliptical that was becoming my friend has turned on me! I don't know what is going on, but I've got to figure this out soon. I really hate feeling off my game! I guess it is off to bed for me and hope for the best at the gym with Shan'tel tomorrow!!

Hang in there for 3 more weeks at least. You are a great partner. I won't be able to understand those health challenges because mine are different but I appreciate how hard you have worked and hope you will feel better soon. What a great experience for both of us.
ReplyDeleteYou and your mom are a source of strength for me. I don't know your health problems, but two three year olds alone are enough to challenge anybody. To keep up with this Challenge is hard for me and all my children are long since grown. Frankly, I think you are doing wonders even if you don't feel like it.
