Sorry I kind of bailed last week - bad me!

But, let's set some goals for the week.

1 - 3 days of cross training. I can't run, so Ive used it as an excuse to sit on my butt and do nothing for a while now, sooo I am going to do something at least 3 days this week even if I have to buy a bathing suit I can only wear for a couple weeks.

2 - pay attention to my body and stop eating when I'm full - even if I have to toss the rest of my meal out.

3 - get and keep organized to help myself stay on track this week.

What's your goal?

I've been dealing with a yeast/heat type rash over the last year or so, which I know many people probably do... but not this type of all over my whole abdomen, fire red, itches like crazy type thing.

Perhaps I am just overreacting and need to chill. Several have commented to scrub, put benadryl on, and call it good. I guess I got more concerned when my derm said I see you have a very impressive rash and they aren't sure how to deal with it either.

I've dealt with them too many times. I will say - DO NOT SCRUB! Wash gently with a good soap - maybe dial antibacterial. Keeping it dry is key. One thing I found helped was putting plain white t-shirt between any rubbing/overlapping skin. I frequently got under my breast - I would wear a t-shirt under my bra. Really weird but helped. Change frequently to keep clean.

Good luck!!!!

Man - I have had similar rashes (I have a funky disease) - I use Sarna lotion. Smells like something died - but works wonders.

1. Set reasonable priorities for myself - including time spent on things. Been a little mono focused lately.

2. Prepare for my trip back east on October 2.

3. Take off 1.5 lbs prior to trip to have a little flexibility while I'm away - I want a safety net.
