Oh Happy Day

Good news- I lost 1.5kg, so I'm back down to 68kg (WW goal)! But even more good news is that I feel I'm more "in the zone" than what I have been recently. I have got back into using Calorie King to track my food, and next week I am starting running again! Yay! My two months off is up, so I am going to ease myself back into it gently- no hills! I've been doing a bit of reading, and I think the pain I got in my hips was from running for too long up too many hills too soon! So easy does it this time. But I just can't wait to feel how it feels to run again... I always felt so strong and free when I ran.

I went to the Dr's this last week to finally ask why I feel so tired all the time. I really struggle at work sometimes, and it is affecting my performance. I had a bunch of blood tests and it showed I was low on iron stores. The dr wasn't sure if that was enough to cause my fatigue, but I am going to try and sort it out and see if it makes a difference. I think if I still have issues, I might see a dietician. I am trying use all the stuff I know on nutrition to plan the most healthy diet I can, but maybe I'm missing something... I know I severely lack healthy fats! So that's one thing I am trying to redress at the moment.

Tomorrow is my birthday- I turn 29... the last of my twenties.... oh dear! Anyway, my lovely man is taking me away to the Crowne Plaza at Coogee for the weekend as my present, but it looks like we lucked out on beach weather! I'm not bothered though, as we can still drink, eat and be merry :) The hotel has a gym so I can still work off a bit of the eating!! The plan is to eat very light during the day, then treat myself at dinner tonight and tomorrow night, cause it is my birthday after all!!! Have good weekends my friends xxxx
