Ha! 2 1/2 hours later we were still wandering around in the falling snow looking for a place to get in. So ever since then we keep it low key. This year he made a really nice pasta dish with shrimp at home. Perfect!<br /><br />Hope you're feeling better! Keep in mind that anything flu related can stick around for awhile. I was sick last month and am still having chest issues when swimming and running.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10243921009872119409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-52107730224677569262011-02-15T19:52:48.549-05:002011-02-15T19:52:48.549-05:00Your kids are ADORABLE!!

Your body will thank you in the end! <br /><br />I have always struggled with numbers on the scale. I spent a good time of my life between 115-120 but I know I had a VERY unhealthy relationship with food. Now I am struggling to get back to my wedding weight, 130. I felt great then and knew my hubby thought so too.fancy nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11645116527352135569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-91997374247391214732011-02-15T08:44:00.802-05:002011-02-15T08:44:00.802-05:00Hey, thanks for the shout out!

As if it's not difficult enough dealing with society's view of an ideal weight, as athletes we have to consider what's best for performance too. It's a lot think about.<br /><br />This is one of those times when you want the doctor to find something wrong, just so you can start feeling better. Maybe it's something like a vitamin or mineral deficiency? That would be an easy fix. Hope you feel beter soon!Nullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13104978798049257495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-85235575384376676972011-02-15T08:25:48.663-05:002011-02-15T08:25:48.663-05:00does your change in diet have anything to do with ...does your change in diet have anything to do with how you've been feeling? if you're training harder maybe you're not eating enough?? hope another day of rest fixes you up.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07202296893022308340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-89729436450398315692011-02-14T21:07:31.516-05:002011-02-14T21:07:31.516-05:00I ditto comments made about the weight #.

I was a little chunky in college and weigh about the same now.<br />Feel better soon. Resting, although feels painful, can go a long way towards recovery.<br />PS - no big V Day plans here.

At 7 months preggo I'm at my heaviest weight ever and I'm actually feeling really good. I keep thinking about what will happen with my weight once I have the baby, but I really just want to focus on staying healthy and active. That's sooo much easier than worrying about a number. Btw, you look great in all the pics you post.runner26https://www.blogger.com/profile/13370012240058974013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-30835201949585004292011-02-14T16:49:28.570-05:002011-02-14T16:49:28.570-05:00Feel better!

To make sure you're still getting time out could you get out for a walk so at least your gently moving your body, getting fresh air and time out to help with the cabin fever.<br /><br />Please, please love your wonderful, beautiful body that fully functions and (once over your bug) lets you run like a demon!

Stress is one of the biggest factors in weakening an immune system, so if you feel stressed and rundown, that is probably contributing to the longevity of this bug you caught.<br /><br />As far as weight goes, I think that as long as you feel good, have enough energy, fit into your clothes and fall within a dr's "normal" weight range, then that's all that matters. Personally, I've never invested much of my emotional energy in thinking about my weight; I've never struggled with it, and have always been within a healthy range, so that's good enough for me. Numbers on a scale can tell a story, but not the entire story.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01465800584212530717noreply@blogger.com
