Health/Training Blog

Last week I noticed that Becky had a link to a health blog on your regular blog site. Basically it is where she talks about improving her overall health and fitness and all the trials, tirbulations and triumphs that can come with it. I thought this was a great idea and with my marathon coming up this year I thought it would be a good way to keep me accountable and on track and (here is the best part) I won't have to bore everyone to tears who doesn't want to read about this on my regular blog. It is also a great way to keep track of my workouts and eating habits so if I ever have any more health issues I will be able to look back at it and see where the problem might be. So Becky I tip my hat to you and will get that link and new blog up soon.

Rant on myself

My health hasn't been so great lately and it is time that I start making smarter decisions when it comes to that aspect of my life. I went to the doctor yesterday and had blood drawn today so I can figure out why I have been so exhausted and light headed these past few weeks. As I have said in a previous post I believe it is my iron being low that is causing this, but I need to make sure so I should know that by next week.

I am going to see a nutritionist because I know that my diet could use improvement. I don't eat badly but I have been lazy in making meals at home and I need to start planning my meals out in advance more than I have been.

And I have had to take the week off from the gym and it is killing me not to go. I seriously don't know what to do with myself but I have been so tired that laying on the couch has been my activity of choice.

I hate feeling this way but if I don't start taking better care of myself things won't improve and I can't blame anyone but myself for that.
