Becoming healthier

Is bloody hard work.

I did Day 2 of the C25k today. I took it at an easier pace and it was much more manageable.  Even managed to sing as I was stumbling along!

When I came off the treadmill though I had an ache in my back, which I seem to wake up with every day. This afternoon it was horrible and worrying.  At first I thought I needed the loo, then felt overwhelmed by nausea and cold sweat. I managed to grab some painkillers but was too afraid to take them in case I threw up.

It felt like a kidney pain, but I have no problems peeing so I really don't know. Checked my pills for side effects seems unrelated. It's gone now and I hope it doesn't return because that was just nasty :(

Day 1 of SW and my cupboards are rather bare. I don't have much of the stuff I need (salad, veg, grains) but I will try to make it through today. I really feel quite shit now. Low energy, averse to going out, tired and want my bed. I'll get some food in me and hopefully that will help. Otherwise I may have to call it a day.

Mood: 4/10, anxiety: 4/10, energy: 3/10

Update 5pm: I ate and forced myself to go to the shop for healthier food. Albeit a lot of it is canned but I have to be realistic - if I don't have stuff around which is easy I won't eat well. My mood is slightly better now after going out. Not sure if it's down to the activity or the mental peace that comes from accomplishing a task? Hmm.
