Good morning Carla, I am going to join the on track team so here is what has happen to me today so far.

I to might add in something else if I need to more than likely it will be some fruit. Exercise-done - Hit the gym at 5 am worked out for 1 hour and 20 min. broke down 65 min on elliptical trainer and 15 min on the treadmill. Completed 5.2 miles today. Total calories burned 1120. Fasting-Nope not for me. Goal- to get under300 only 4 pounds to go I hope to make it this week.

I am soooooo sick today. I'm not sure if it's a mixture of having a cold and being tired from running yesterday or what. But I'm dizzy ... very dizzy. I can barely get my fingers to type because I feel so weak! What the heck is wrong? I tried eating breakfast and it made me gag. I'm debating on whether or not to call my husband and have him come home to take care of the kids. I hate to do that but I feel like I'm not functioning very well! My goal for today is just to get my water in. Seeing how my stomach isn't tolerating food today, I'll be lucky to get something in to eat. But I need my water so that is my goal. Fasting goal: no candy ... couldn't eat it today even if I tried! Deanna

Vitamins - so far so good Fluids - working on it Food B - 10 oz of coffee / 2 oz 2% milk L - 11:30 - chicken bacon ranch wrap from a local coffee shop (this is soooo good. It is made with a large flour tortilla and loaded with cheese and chicken and has 2 strips of bacon and ranch dressing. I'm working on 1/2 of it now (300 cals 21 g protein?? this is a guess) S - 4:00 - protein chips (110cal and 7g pro) D - not really sure But I'll be sure to eat protein first I plan to have a protein bullet before bed (170 cals and 42g protein) This leaves me 400 calories for dinner so I will hopefully be under on calories today (my range right now is 800 - 1000 and I'm aiming for the 800ish range).

Is there an off track team because this little sheep is waiting for a shepherd to get her back to the herd! There's always tomorrow. ANDI

***hugs*** Andi, the day you run with the herd and not to the beat of your own drum, I'll eat my hat even if it is loaded with calories! Yes, tomorrow is a new day

but but but i want to at least SEE the herd i feel like i walk alone an awful lot. I'm not sure why i'm eating what i'm eating lately since i'm not even hungry. Hugs, ANDI

Andi, andi andi... my little lost sheep.. come find the herd.. we are right here waiting for you.. put down what you do eat.. at least we can enjoy that as well. in thought anyway.

Sadly, I know exactly how that feels, so don't you think you are the only one with a ticket on that bus! I wish I had answers, if I did I'd be a millionaire. I also wish we got our heads fixed at the same time as our stomachs. I can see why they call the first 6 months a honeymoon period as I didn't want to eat like I do now. Hang in there little lamb, it's been a long journey and may be a little while longer yet (do your kids ask 'are we nearly there yet' on road trips like mine does?) That's what it feels like at the moment for me, does it for you - are we nearly there yet, this journey seems to be going on too long, I want to be there already. We'll get there. If you are tired, and your body wants to eat, maybe you are lacking something. Can you bring your appointment for blood work sooner? I've started taking additional vitamin B on top of my multivitamin as Carla said it helps with feeling tired. Maybe that would help you? I think there is a number of us on this board feeling tired lately - is an annual thing you think???
