An update


Wow, I can't believe it's been a week since I've written in my blog! I do have another journal going with my workouts and my LEAP diet so I guess I haven't needed to write much here as not much is happening.
This week was pretty good, had some good days and not so good days with my breathing. Still adding and deleting foods to see what bothers me and what doesn't. It is a very long process but I am getting some good results. I have really had to "clean up" my diet and by doing so am just starting to feel better....and it's been 2 weeks.

The first week was rough, seemed I was tired all the time and just not feeling myself. I was okay with the foods I was limited to and seemed to be eating enough but just getting all the processed foods/sugars/alcohol and junk out of my diet took a little longer than I thought. My workouts were sluggish and I just wasn't in to really working out.

Now that I am finished with my 2nd week I am doing much better. I have had a couple of really good rides on the mountain bike and my swims were good as well. It sure helped with our 70 degree weather. I worked 5 days this week but 2 of the days I was able to get out by 1:00-1:30pm which gave me plenty of time to get to the trails to ride. I am still not running, I think I will take another week off as it has only been 3 weeks. I do miss running, I didn't think I would but with this warm weather it sure would have been nice to be able to run in it as well. I am planning on a long walk today to see how the foot/calf do with that.

Today is much cooler than it has been all week. In the 30's with a prediction of snow. We woke up this morning with beautiful blue skies...however, it's about 2pm now and the big snowflakes are starting to come down. A little too warm for anything to stick but I am sure we will get a little bit of coverage. I don't think we are suppose to get much more than 2", but we shall see.
