You should contact a local mental health professional who can help you talk through what is going on, can make suggestions for change, can help you feel better, and who can help keep you safe. Your primary care physician can probably recommend someone in your area or your insurance company can give you a list of people.

Please contact someone soon so you don't have to continue feeling like this.

Thanks. Didn't make it to fencing Wednesday (board meeting ran late), but did a lesson with no complications on Thursday and today did an hour of Pilates on the Reformer followed by 40 minutes of yoga. Seems to be back to its old self.

Keep on losing!

Have you tried liquid fuel products? Generation Ucan doesn't get carbs from sugar, I believe. Will also help getting around the drinking while eating situation. I'm lucky enough to be able to eat just about anything, but my go to fuel is Tailwind. It's super nice to get hydration and calories at the same time.

back at it - knee is much better after that cortisone shot last Tuesday and some rest, but still taking another night off of fencing.

Monday - Rest (did a 1.5 hour yoga workshop yesterday so didn't get a rest day on the weekend)

Tuesday - First workout with new personal trainer

Wednesday - Fencing = will get there late - probably only an hour

Thursday - 1/2 hour fencing lesson

Friday - Pilates and strength training

Saturday - Agility training and yoga

Sunday - rest

Stay healthy.

Keep on losing!

Topic: RE: excess skin and working out

Karen - thanks, but those Lycra arm warmers do not provide enough compression for what I have - they don't stop the slapping. The Body Helix tricep sleeve works best for me. Since I work out 5-6 days a week and fence competitively, I don't mind paying the extra. I tried a pair of those from one of the sporting goods stores and it was a waste of 20 bucks.

Keep on losing!

Topic: RE: Bonking...?

The one question I have how do you do with natural sugar such as honey or maple syrup. I do not do well with sugars but I can handle those so I buy this one gel that is maple syrup and sea salt which gets me through. I also this summer found crackers that I can handle on a bike ride and allows me to jump off and go into a run without upsetting my stomach. what about cutting up apple into small pieces and carry that or oranges. I am so far out that for runs and bike rides I will take in fuel and have a drink. There is a lot you can do for biking. you just need to find out what your system will handle. It can take awhile but keep trying.
