Day Sixty-Four- Got My Workout In, But Now I Am Sick

Today is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the kids were out of school today. I knew that I needed to get my workout in before the kids got up from school, so I had a sitter come to the house early this morning (my aunt has been ill, so I didn't want to obligate her to watching the kids), and made it to the gym before 7 am.

I spent 26 minutes on the treadmill with two 1-minute intervals of jogging. Man, I sweated like crazy and then as a treat, I spent 10 minutes in the jacuzzi. It felt good to get my muscles to relax. Then, I ran by the office, and got patient statements run as well as insurance filed. Then I ran home, got the kids dressed, and we headed to watch the new Jackie Chan movie, "The Spy Next Door." Pretty good movie.

After we got done, I took the kids to lunch, and then I went to the office and met with the nutritionist that has his office in our office. We spent about 2 hours, and he & his wife did a body scan to see what my body is lacking in nutrients and what organs that really needed help. Man, my thyroid & adrenals are shot. That explains why my body looks like a Goodyear tire around my waist. So we are working on some supplements that will really going to make a change. I am really dedicated and excited to see how this will make the changes that my body needs to make.

But throughout the entire day, I had this small dry spot feeling in the back of my throat, but as the day went on, especially after the movie, my joints were really starting to ache all over, and by 5 pm, I was aching all over and my throat was killing me. And to top it all off, my husband is coming down with the same thing. So, we turned in real early, and I am blogging early, so that I can turn in early and get to bed. Also, as I am blogging, I realized that I was so busy today, that I completely skipped breakfast & also lunch. That was terrible!! I cannot believe that I actually did that!

Here is my food journal entry for today:

Breakfast- Skip

Mid-Morning Snack- 10:00 am
Popcorn
Sprite

Lunch- Skip

Dinner- 5:30 pm
Salmon w/ Mixed Veggies
Rice
Water (2)
Hot Tea

Tomorrow is lower body day, but I am feeling terrible. I am hoping that I get to feeling better by the morning so I can go to the gym, but let's see how tomorrow goes.
