Okay..it's been over a week! I started out with a stomach virus, that turned into an upper respiratory infection, that turned into bad bronchitis!! So, that put me out of commission for quite a while! Since I could not exercise from April 19th to today, I gained 4 pounds back of what I lost :( I'm upset about it, but I'm just going to pick up where I left off and get right back to it.
I'm not 100% yet, but I attempted to go back to the gym today on a spur of the moment decision. It was a struggle because I still cannot breathe good yet, however I managed to get a mile run out of it. Not my best time for a mile (19 mins), but at least I tried.
I first started out feeling like such a failure. I was upset about the weight gain, and upset that one mile felt like 10 to me today. I came home upset and almost crying. It took my logical thinking hubby to remind me that I've been SICK and am not 100% yet, and to just stop. So, I did.
So, back at it. I have to work tomorrow and after work I will go back and do a small run again unless I'm feeling better. I'll just have to see.
See ya tomorrow!
