Day three of three without breakfast- I just can’t seem to get to sleep and/or get up in the morning. I had a wicked bout of insomnia AGAIN last night- I finally got to sleep at 6am this morning. Not too helpful when I am supposed to go to a job fair to look for a job at 9am. I was SO exhausted when I woke up.
Also, I spent about a hour last night before trying to sleep to find something respectable to wear for the mass interviews.
Nothing.
Fits.
(yet)
After running to target for black socks ( I have no idea where in the mess of my room/storage unit where all my black socks went) I came home and decided to WORKOUT (look at me). I spent about 30-35 min on the treadmill and while tired, actually ran/jogged for a few minutes!
4 to be exact!;-)
Now, you may remember that I wrote about having EIA here -Exercise-Induced Asthma. Jogging, high impact aerobics, bootcamp and even swimming (the chemicals kill my lungs) cause me to wheeze, cough and have breathing issues for around 2-3 hours after exercising. It is uncomfortable, but I work around it. I have been to the doctor and was given an inhaler. It works, but I have to use it a few times during workouts.
Guess what I misplaced during the move?
While I know I shouldn’t jog w/o the inhaler, I am at the place in my workouts where I want to ramp it up a notch. I called in a new Rx so hope to have it soon. I am really ready to move more.
I start my fitness bootcamp on November 30th, right as I will be doing an assessment on how I did during the month of November on my own.
Here is what I ate today-
Breakfast: Nothing. Again.
Lunch: 2 lot fat hot dogs, mustard, green beans, cracked pepper, water.
Snack – Fruit 2day and cottage cheese.
Dinner: Not so healthy. 2 fried chicken strips, 5 french fries, ketchup, diet soda.
I am going grocery shopping tomorrow because I need to add some variety and fresh fruits and veggies to my diet.
Ok- off to put in earplugs and take a sleeping pill– I WILL SLEEP TONIGHT!
PS: my pedometer hit 8836 today–4147 being aerobic steps!
Getting closer to 10,000!

great job on the running! Don’t you just love that feeling when you know you’re ready to ramp it up? That is the kind of NSV we should all be looking for – it’s a sign that your lifestyle is really changing.
PS: I laughed when I read what you wrote for your lunch – I’m sure they were LOW fat and not a LOT of fat hot dogs – wishful thinking maybe? HAHA
PPS: I used to have a LOT of trouble falling asleep. Have you ever taken a yoga class? They usually end it with the “corpse pose”. Well, I do that now when I’m ready to sleep – I never make it more than halfway up or down my body before I’m fast asleep. Might be something to try????
