Exhausted!

I've been so pumped and excited and energized, but for the last two days I've just felt REALLY TIRED. I did what I was supposed to do yesterday and was so glad that today was an off day and that I could sleep in. But when I woke up today, I felt like someone had beaten me all night. My muscles are sore which I know is normal, but my body is just generally run down and fatigued. Maybe I'm fighting off a cold or maybe my body is just trying to adjust to this new way of life, but right now I feel like I could lay my head down on my desk and sleep. I'm excited to meet and run tomorrow though and I plan on doing absolutely nothing for the rest of the day after the run. I'm so fortunate that I don't have a spouse or kids that need my time and attention. I have extreme admiration for all your parents out there who are doing this. You all are my inspiration, really.

I know exactly what you mean. I'm fighting a cold right now, and had to skip last night because I had no energy left in me. I'm still not 100% but looking forward to tomorrow.

Hey Christa
Just wanted to say hello. You already look like you've lost weight. Your body will need time to adjust to your new lifestyle. Drink lots of water, lots of sleep, take a multivitamin and listen to your body. You are doing great. Keep Christy in check at work
