Making a training schedule for my upcoming half marathon has been on my 'to do' list for a while, but today I actually finished it and my first 2 mile run! I'm feeling productive!

Ok boys, don’t read this (possible TMI )
Yesterday I learned a very important lesson: When the doctor that you actually trust, one that takes the time to listen to all of you symptoms, tells you that she really thinks the reason that you are having difficulty losing weight might be related to your birth control, do not poo poo said doctor. The very next piece of mail you get may be a letter from your prescription drug provider indicating that there is a RECALL on your birth control (oh, and yes at least the last three packs were in the effected lot). Good times.
I feel like an idiot. (but am really hopeful that my now required change may make things easier!)

Relax.
My dr. is encouraging a low sugar, high protein and add in a little fat diet. And I am to really focus on lowering my stress levels. While my blood work was pretty good, she is thinking that my emotional state and difficulty losing weight is mainly due to stress. Ugh.
So this weekend I have: gone to yoga, sat in the sun (hours on the patio reading my book - in February!), cleaned my house, worked in some salad, did (and paid - yuck!) my taxes, bought two new pairs of running shoes, biked 20 miles, stick fighting with D, baked bread, ate frozen yogurt while taking a bubble bath, read a book on Peru, and watched a Felicity marathon. What a weekend!
This week may be pretty stressful, but I have a date with some girlfriends on Saturday, am going to work in some running days, make my half marathon training plan, and one day this week I am going to check out the flower and garden show (dorky, I know, but I LOVE it and go every year). I can do this!
