Lena's diary

Hi Lena,

Im enjoying reading your posts.

go girl, it will come off easier this time, as you allready know what to expect, and the anticipation of the unknown fears wont be there.:willy_nilly:

go go go !:hurray::hurray:

wheeee!

( OK , I'll lay off the caffeine )
 
back from dream :(

i'm back from bosnia and back to work...immediately trouble...tons of work, i wasn't very well concentrated the first day so i made a mistake and caused a bit of s stir. i feel guilty and bad but i cannot change the facts so i might as well get over it.

i miss bf already, it was so nice being near him for the past 20 days and now once more distance...its becoming really nerve recking. maybe i'm becoming just a little bit unpatient. we're supposed to move in finally in two or three months. i guess i want it now hehe. unfortunately i have to be patient.

so in the past few weeks i've been good and bad, and i felt good and bad. my eating wasn't all that right, especially since i would eat in the evenining, and if you ever go to bosnia or balkans you'll understand how this can be bad. bosnian cousine is very into meet and potatoes, fortunately grilled and not fried, but still a bit heavy on the stomach.

to ease the stomach aches me and bf would take long walks around mostar, but then the odd thing happened. i started having really painful cramps in my left foot. it goes away only after a day or two of rest. whenever i start walking for longer periods of time the same thing happens. maybe i'm lacking some minerals. it could be shoes also...i just hope its nothing more than that.

apart from the foot...my body seems to be having weird sense of humour. in the last week that i was there i started feeling dizzy. the first time it happened me and bf were just making out, and were wonderfully into it and just as about i was really enjoying myself the room started to go round and round. i almost fainted. this state of dizziness lasted for several days. talk about bad timing..

anyway i have to go and tell my doctor about these things. i'm kinda hoping its a reaction to high temperatures, stress release and vitamin or mineral defficiency.
 
i still didn't go to see the doctor about this dizziness, i will next week. today i'm going out of town to meet some of my friends from Budapest :) can't wait. i won't drink though. with the vertigo and all i think it would be best to stay sober.

wish you all a nice weekend
:)
 
I like reading your diary : ) Hope you get a chance to see the Dr soon. I myself have been feeling dizzy lately, but only during workouts.

thanx girls i will go and see a doctor tomorrow after work. i believe it has to do something with my eyes. it tends to increase as the day goes on. i am wearing glasses but maybe i need to change them. anyway i don't want to overstress about it. i don't want to think its anything serious until proven otherwise :)

apart from that the weekend was really lovely, i went to see my friends and managed to relax wonderfully. and yesterday, after not being near the computer and after sleeping for nine hours i didn't feel dizzy until last night. i'll try and workout and see how that goes. but i'll do it at home on the eliptical.i need to start losing this weight.

Thanx Lea :) feeling dizzy during workout is a call to stop and relax for a minute or two, have some water and after a protein bar or something.
and i will go and see a doctor :)

yeah i told him that when it happened. it did actually happen to me once that i had such an orgasm that i almost fainted. if only this was the same hehehe
 
Geez, Lena, I'm glad you're happy but that dizziness sounds shitty! Maybe you have vertigo....for whatever reason I've been meeting a lot of people with that condition, lately! Take care, hope you improve!
 
well the dizziness stopped since i changed my pillow, however i am still going to check what could have caused it just to be on the safe side. i think its stress. plus my foot hurts. not all the time just after longer walking or exercise one part of my left foot starts cramping hard and if i stand on something with half of my foot...i can feel the pain in my head it hurts that much. so i need to have that checked too. i feel like a car...i've done certain milage and should be checked and repaired :D

anyways, apart from that i feel great. yesterday i went for a tae bo class. sweated my ass off, it was damn difficult but it felt soooo goood. so i think i'll stick to that one :)
the food is also pretty good. the only thing i'm constantly craving are sandwiches. but i'm trying to resist it :)

have a great day all :)
 
When's the last time you replaced your sneakers? Might be time for new tires? :D

Do get yourself checked out... and hope you're feeling better
 
well i finally did get to the doctor, and as far as the dizziness she believes its from the neck and spine. however my foot is a different matter, i need to go to a neurologist for that one. she went with a piece of something over the bottom of my feet and my left foot was twitching like crazy so some nerve is a bit too sensitive... i'll know what's really wrong with it in about month or so because the waiting list is huuuge.

it could be the shoes...it started when i started waling in flats in the beginning of summer. i was walking for about 2 hours and it started hurting, and it hurts since then whenever i walk longer or exercise...and now it doesn't really matter which shoes i have on. but it will not stop me from exercising. no way!
 
so this weekend and yesterday were absolutely awful. i got my period and had such flow and cramps that i practically couldnt get out of bed, and yesterday i ate and felt so sick that i had to skip my tae bo class...i was so upset that i started crying. ok that's for the bad. if i didn't no better i would think i'm pregnant.

on the better note i lost inches :D i don't know how much but i can see by my belt. i used to wear it on the third notch, now i'm on fifth :D
 
It must be so hard to deal with a screwed up foot or possible peripheral neuropathy or something.....and then have a killer period with cramps and the works on top of it! I know exercise always helps me, but it looks like you can't really do that with your foot the way it is :( However, I'm glad to hear about the inches! :D
 
Hi Lena! Catching up in your diary today....glad you got to the dr about the dizziness and foot cramps. Weird, we were food shopping last night and my right foot (toes) kept cramping and I kept trying to flatten my foot to relieve them--finally they stopped and my right foot got a cramp in it! damn! I have to think it is a deficiency...only other cramps I have ever had like that are in my calves.

Hope you are eating well and making good choices. I am back on board with my journey amd posting again. Have a good day!
 
@val
i am training because the doc said i could, i just can't over do it, and i have to put this gel on it when i get home. that makes it better. i also take extra vitamins and magnesium suplement for the cramps, so that does make things a bit better. today i plan on buying some good sneekers so i can get most out of my training.
@ bethan :)
hehe good that you are back into he groove. now i need to step into mine completely.


i went to my tae bo workout on wednesday and yesterday. i am sore today but i just love it, all the sweating and pushing limits. the only thing is i get lost when complex moves take place. hehe its hilarious. hope fully that will get better :)

my food is relatively good, i am making mistakes but progressing slowly in the right direction. i just really need to get rid of the bread. that one is my biggest problem at the moment. but i will deal :)
 
Word on the bread, I almost ate a bagel mindlessly but left it in the toaster--hmmm bett er pull that out....

you might have wheat/gluten sensitivity. I bet if you took that out of your diet you might see a positive change. Lots of people can't tolerate it and don't know it.

Hope you feel good still! Props for the workouts!
