I've done pretty well the last little while as the weather has gotten hot, pacing myself and keeping out of the sun as much as possible. I don't even think that today was the hottest day we've had, but it really got to me. I went for a bike ride as soon as I got home from the pool to avoid the worst of it. I'm not sure if I didn't have enough food for the extra activity or if it was strictly the heat, but after 11 o'clock I had a horrible headache, was nauseated, but at the same time was just ravenous for protein. I couldn't stuff it in my face fast enough and that lasted till after supper, when I felt pretty good again. I did a little yard work and some sewing and I feel fine. I only went 100 calories over my guidelines, so I'm OK with that, but I think I'll need to watch it a little more closely when it's hot as stink, just to make sure I eat before I get to that point. I had to read and nap all afternoon!!
Thanks for small miracles. Thanks for sewing machines. Thanks for being able to rest when needed. Thanks for air conditioning!
Love, elly
Just be careful!!
