Hey Everyone! Well, I have been out of commission the last 2 days, but I think I am finally getting back on my feet...literally! I had to go to the doctor on Friday morning due to a massive sinus infection, and my antibiotic is finally kicking in! I was pretty much laid out all day yesterday and for the most part of today. I started feeling "better" at about 5pm this evening. By better, I mean that my head is not ready to explode and I can breathe about 45% through my nose! I'm not sure about how the most of you are, but I know that as soon as I start to get healthy by eating better and exercising, I get sick! I usually joke around saying that because of all the junk I used to eat with all the preservatives, I was preserving myself from the inside-out! I was so well-preserved that is why I didn't get sick. Why now you might ask? That makes no sense...I am eating better, only drinking water (and SPARK!) and exercising. The explanation is, that I ate so many processed foods and drank so many chemicals, that my body is de-toxing all of the junk out! My immune system is low because it has to learn to get all that bad toxins out, and sometimes that route is via my sinuses! Not a great thing to go through, but if I stick with my healthy lifestyle, then my body will be healthier than ever, and my immune system will boost dramatically! Onward and upward with my health journey!
Here is how I coped through the last 2 days. I was pretty good with the eating (when I actually felt like eating), but I did forgo the exercise for yesterday and today as it was basically impossible for me to get my butt off the couch!
Day 13:
Upon Waking: (3) Catalyst followed by 8oz water Fruit Punch SPARK with MNS vitamin color pack
Breakfast (30 minutes AFTER SPARK): Chocolate Mocha Meal Replacement Shake + MNS vitamin packs
Doctor Visit: Sinus infection confirmed: 875mg Augmentin/10days
Mid-Morning Snack: I think I slept through this one.....
30 Minutes Before Lunch: MNS vitamin pack
Lunch: Tuna on a garden salad with strawberries, evoo and balsamic vinegar
Mid-Afternoon Snack: Green Apple and 1 oz cheddar cheese
Dinner: 4 oz chicken breast, cooked carrots and All-Natural Applesauce + 2 Omegaplex
Evening Snack: Air-popped plain popcorn
Exercise: None...wasn't going to happen!!
Total Water Consumed: Not sure because it was hard to drink as I couldn't breathe through my nose, so I am guessing approx. 40-48oz.
Day 14:
Upon Waking: (3) Catalyst followed by 8oz water; Fruit Punch Spark with MNS vitamin color pack
Breakfast (30 minutes AFTER SPARK): Chocolate Mocha Meal Replacement Shake + MNS vitamin packs
Mid-Morning Snack: Bowl of strawberries and blackberries
30 Minutes Before Lunch: MNS vitamin pack
Lunch: 4 oz chicken breast, cooked carrots and green beans
Dinner: 2 eggs scrambled with red bell pepper, 1 slice Ezekiel Raisin Toast + 2 Omegaplex
Evening Snack: Green Apple with 1 oz cheddar cheese
Exercise: Since I didn't start to feel better until this evening, I am going to forgo the exercise for today as I don't want to push it. But I will be back at it tomorrow!
Total Water Consumed: I'm still drinking, but I wanted to get this blog done early so I can really get a good night's rest. I am estimating that I will be at 64 oz for the day. Once again, it is still hard to breathe through my nose, so drinking is really hard! Who knew? LOL.
