One goal achieved!
Dec 25, 2010
Today was a good day! I finally lost enough weight (122 lbs) to ride my daughters horse. I was so excited but a little apprehensive because I haven't been riding since I was 17 and I am 43 years old now! I can't wait until I start looking for my own horse to ride so that my daughter and I can go horseback riding together.

July 4, 2010:
So, I had an interesting day yesterday. I went with my family to Sky King in Cocoa to get fireworks for the 4th. I was ok during the ride there, had a busy morning and didn't have time to eat so I was snacking on Turkey Pepperoni and a light cheese stick on the ride there. We also stopped so hubby could get some boiled peanuts in the way and I had a few of those, it was about 1pm or so. Anyways, since I didn't have any water, I thought I could drink a gatorade and did so during the drive. Once we got there and I got out of the car, I started feeling very tired and sluggish feeling. I got into the store and about 15 mins later started to feel like I was going to pass out. I told my husband that I needed to sit down somewhere and then all of a sudden I broke out into a cold sweat, he grabbed my hand and we very quickly walked to the door, while doing so I started to get a very loud noise in my ears, don't really remember much except that once we hit the door, I fell to the ground. I knew people were around me telling me to drink the water. They started to put cold towels on my neck and cold bottles of water on my face. I started to feel a little better and my color came back in my face. My hands, legs starting doing like a tingling vibration feeling. I had no nausea or cramping. I don't know if this was just an anxiety issue because the store was crowded but the last time I felt like this was at the flea market. Same thing, ok during the drive, had about 8 oz of gatorade, got out of the truck and felt very tired and sluggish but left before the pass out episode.
I am wondering if maybe the gatorade was too much sugar for me since this is twice although the first one was not as bad. Today, I am feeling very scared to venture out anywhere. I was sitting here and getting heart palpitations, dizziness feeling. I try to get enough water in but it's hard. It usually takes me 8 hours to drink 16 ozs. If I drink more water, I can't eat but a bite or two of food then I am miserable.
