Whitewater Again- getting back on track

Sep 06, 2012

    I am going to visit Ocoee TN again for the second whitewater rafting tip- this time with a boyfriend. Testing his stamina for future reference. I need someone capable to keep up as well as push myself. I have backed off on daily gym/ exercise, other than stairs and work walking I cannot continue along this pathway.
    . I am so looking forward to Saturday as a great Stress reliever. I have lost myself in tacking  care of everyone else before me. Damn It I am important and this stress reducer will be great. If Possible we will be riding the motorcycles through the lower mountain ( hills ) area and stay over night to relax with no family obligations for either one of US.  I feel this is a great need . Drinking and medications are only part of my solution . Dealing with stress is pushing me back to the sweets/ crunchy snacking. Sleeping pills lead me to talking to people ( which BTW I have no recollection of at all)  in home and eating whatever there is available. 
 Good night from my end of the crazy conversation-Sleep tight people things do get better but the By-Pas did not cure all my issues. It gave me the  power to take back me and get Healthy . Now I am retraining an old Dog ( only because do as they please anyway) new tricks on dealing with my crazy chaotic LIFE. I have learned to stand up and ask when I need help or acknowledge these needs to myself- a willingness to accept help as well. Peaceful start, not easy though at times, RELAX I think will be my word of the day Friday
.      WEIRD / UnusuaL SIDE EFFECT?
    P.S.S. Think about this when you get a blood-work check low potassium causes Constipation, fatigue . Never figured that as a cause. . Found out my Potassium  was 2.7 Norm ranges 3.5-5.0. if you have excessive vomiting / diarrhea you think of dropped potassium. I had neither. started with some leg cramps nothing like previous times when it was low ,so keep that in back of you mind if you have this issue.
