I don't know why, but Katisha's aria from The Mikado is running through my head right now, so I made that my subject line. :) Hey, this aria landed me a role in The Marriage of Figaro in college - don't hate.
I signed up for a Twitter account this week. Sadly, I have more followers on this blog than I do on Twitter because I don't really know how to work it yet. So if you tweet - follow me! I just look sad with my 3 little followers.
In other news, not to jinx myself, but I feel GREAT today!! I woke up and felt normal today. I am hungry, I am not sweating (yet), and I don't feel ready to keel over. All big successes in my opinion. Thintervention has slowly started creeping back, though I'm still not fully back on track yet. I re-started my Zija vitamins on Tuesday and that does help a lot. Gives me more energy in general. My eating is slowly returning to normal,too. I'm still not eating as often as I should - i.e. I haven't had breakfast, and no snacks. The no snacks thing isn't really all that bad, but I do need to eat breakfast. I need to go pick up some Special K this week. Yesterday I had a turkey sandwich for lunch but it was on yummy bread, so it ended up being more calories than I really needed, but still it wasn't a cheeseburger! Last night I wanted fast food, but instead opted to cook at home instead. Granted, I made pasta....ahh!! But the sandwich and the pasta were the only two things I ate yesterday, so I highly doubt my caloric intake was all that high - it was just full of the wrong things, and I needed to eat breakfast. But I was so happy to actually be hungry I didn't want to push it.
Still haven't exercised. I still cough ridiculous amounts at night when I go to bed, which tells me that running on a treadmill is perhaps not the best idea yet. Its supposed to be 70 degrees tomorrow though, so I fully plan on taking a long walk with the dog.
In other news, I managed to wear a sweater today that I haven't worn in at least a year. It was too small and didn't fit right. But today, I conquered! Its on, its cute, and its royal blue - GO WILDCATS! They have their Round 1 NCAA tourney game today against Princeton, so I had to represent. Woo woo!
So basically, I'm down but not out. Lets say that maybe one foot is back on the wagon, and the other is still dragging the ground. I'm back on my vitamins, I'm attempting to return to a normal eating plan, and tomorrow I shall take a walk. Baby steps...
Go CATS!

Baby steps is right, mama! Please, please don't push yourself too hard. Really, truly. Long story short, you don't want to die at the gym because you pushed yourself too hard while sick. Take it easy. It sounds like you are on the right track! Keep it up girlie!
