As you may have noticed, I’ve been really slacking. I was doing really well, but that has since stopped. I was competing in a challenge, which has also stopped. On March 2nd, I got up and started my routine. I walked 2 miles instead of my 1, for a total of 43 minutes. I also did the daily challenge which was yoga for 5 minutes. I have been drinking my 8 glasses of water each day and charting what I eat on the WW site. I was planning on doing another mile that evening. However, I began having chest pains while we were sitting on the couch watching TV. Then I became light headed and felt like I was going to pass out. Long story short, we spent the evening in the ER. It is believed that I’m suffering from full blown panic attacks. I had 2 EKG’s performed and both looked fine, besides the fact that they were tacky because I was so worked up. Since then, I’ve basically stopped everything. I’m nervous and just want to assure that my problem is only anxiety. With that being said, I haven’t had this issue since then. I’ve been reminding myself to stay calm. Does anyone else suffer from anxiety issues?
I’d like to get started back on my plan tomorrow….we’ll see how I’m feeling. I do go to my weekly WW meeting tomorrow and I’m nervous that my weight will stay the same or have gone up. Yikes. I did go out and buy a ton of fruit, since fresh fruit is zero points. Although I splurged over the weekend.
On Wednesday, I follow up with my doctor to see what she has to say about my “issues”. Right now, I think that I’m just nervous about my weight. I don’t want to be unhealthy. I over think everything and I make myself a bit crazy by doing so. The ER doctor suggested that I see a cardiologist to have a stress test done, for my own piece of mind.
So here’s to tomorrow. A new day. Time to get back on track, hopefully.
