Thanks discombobulated! I can't believe I'm close to the 60 min run!
I had an easy run today, around 30 min, took it nice and slow. It's incredible to me that I now find a 30 min run to be easy. The morning temp & humidity is on the rise...I can't say I'm happy about that! __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

My run today was hard. I was tired, and it was like running through molasses. I started my period yesterday, and that probably has something to do with my fatigue. I made it 30 min and had to stop. Maybe I can do the 55 min run tomorrow or the next day.
The other problem I had today was that my right hip popped out of joint. It really hurt to jog. I need to get it to pop back into joint. I took a muscle relaxer to see if that would help but so far, no go. There are videos online about it, and I plan to try those once I get my shower & breakfast. I really don't want to have to spend money on a chiropracter; my insurance is the pits when it comes to helping pay for chiropracty. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

Ouch that sounds nasty Blueberry, no wonder you found running hard with all that going on. Hope your hip will be okay, has this happened before? Do you have joint hyper mobility?
I’ve not been running at all, weather and feeling tired last week, and today I have a blood donor appointment, they advise no strenuous exercise the day or afterwards. I am hoping I make the iron requirement as I was just below last time and put on a 3 month suspension. I’ve been eating beef and dosing up on iron supplements so hoping it’ll tip me into the okay zone. If they knock me back again I’ll get a run tomorrow. |

@Discombobulated Sorry you have been so tired. Hopefully your blood donation will go well and your iron will be sufficient. I have problems with low iron too. I have had to get a couple iron infusions in the past because supplements don't seem to get my iron up but maybe a couple of points. You are awesome donating blood! I just can't; it makes me so faint. I have even completely passed out just when the PCP takes blood for standard yearly tests like CBC, cholesterol, iron, etc.
I didn't run today because of my hip. You are right; that is extremely painful! I think my hip may have popped overnight when I shifted around in bed but I was only half awake, in a daze from sleep so I can't be sure. It still hurts this morning, more like the muscles are sore from limping around yesterday. I iced it and got a smallish pop this morning; it seems better than when I woke up, but I took some Tylenol too. Probably I'll take tomorrow off and maybe be able to do some light walking the next day. We'll see. Not exercising drives me crazy though! __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

That’s wise to take time off blueberry, you’ll have a good level of fitness now, you can afford a little time out.
I’m so pleased my iron was okay this time, I was anxious when the drop went into the tube but it sank thankfully. A friend had a transfusion last week so it feels like a good payback. I feel fine and taking it very easy, made sure to have the juice and cookies. I do need to get my exercise groove back on, hoping I can get out in a few days. |

Well I cursed myself with that last post, I almost passed out tonight and it came over so suddenly, luckily my son was on hand to literally pick me up. My bp is low so I really need to get that checked out but no exercise until I’m okay.

@Discombobulated - Oh no! When can you get in to see the doctor?
As for me, I'm still resting my hip. It still is pretty sore so I plan to ice it. The good news is it hurts less than yesterday. I am pretty sure it did pop but I have muscle soreness from limping around and not putting weight normally on that leg. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

I had a cup of granola for breakfast which helped keep my hunger under control all day. I had 1480 calories, 180 carbs, but just 42 grams of protein. My therapist wants to start working out with me (thats another issue) but I'm hoping to get back to working on my treadmill someway.

I still can't exercise today b/c of my stupid hip. I am beyond fed up with it and wish it would heal already!

I'm at 1017 calories, 143 carbs, and 38 grams of protein. I need to figure out dinner. My sodium is fine.
