It's been a while...

It would probably do me good to blog every day, but I just don't have the time. It's been over two months since my last post. Been to a bunch of doctors, had a bunch of tests done.

Got a third opinion on my thyroid and apparently, all is well in my world of endocrinology.
I went to a sleep specialist who explained the results from the sleep study. She gave me a new prescription that has been helping tremendously to keep me sleeping for longer than two hours at a time. It's amazing how much brighter the world looks when you've gotten enough sleep.

I'm back on the wagon with tracking my food every day. I'm now on myfitnesspal.com and it's been going great. It's nice to have a support system of people like me who are struggling with the same obstacles.

I've been going to physical therapy to strengthen my hips and core and the therapist released me to run. It's the best news I've had in a long time. I will be starting out slowly, of course. But, with a few months of training, I'll be back to where I was. And better than ever.

I was really down about not having the racing season I had planned on having, but that's how life works. We don't always get what we want, but we usually get what we need.

Keep your chin up and stay positive and work hard to get what you want and it will be yours. I have no doubt about that.
