Congrats on your progress, and I hope you feel better soon! Dehydration can definitely cause dizziness and nausea (learned this from experience), so extra water or green tea never hurts.

Thank you. On top of that, I'm also sick with allergies or a cold/flu. I gotta buy some cold and flu medication today because these allergy pills aren't doing the trick.

Thank you. On top of that, I'm also sick with allergies or a cold/flu. I gotta buy some cold and flu medication today because these allergy pills aren't doing the trick.

Allergies all by themselves can cause dizziness and just make you generally feel like crap. I've had allergy attacks in the past that laid me out as hard as the flu does. Hope you feel better soon.

Something you can try for the shin splints is to do toe taps. Shin splints happen because the muscles which run over the front of your tibia are weak. Tapping your feet helps strengthen those muscles and leads to less pain over time. Just do them whenever you're sitting around. Fifty on one foot, fifty on the other. It should help.

Rant

I've had a soar throat all day and I can feel a cough coming along.

Today's weather HAS SUCKED. At 7am this morning, it was already 80 degrees!! And I think it reached 90 in the afternoon. I didn't even get to go to the beach because of my cold and school. It NEVER gets this hot around here. Hot for us is 75 degrees.......today and yesterday were heat waves. I live right on the coast of SoCal and we didn't even have the merciful cool ocean sea breeze to make the heat tolerable......it was just heat and hot wind, no clouds, and the sun beating down on everybody. I hated it because I couldn't even go to the beach. If not for my sickness, I would have easily ditched school and gone boogie boarding. Oh well....


Just wanted to complain I guess.

Just a rant:
Now that I'm finally over this sickness, I'm gonna start running again. I want to attempt week 4 of C25K but I have to really push myself so I don't fail horribly again. If I need to, I'll repeat week 3, but i want to give week 4 another chance. 

I'm also happy to say that I've lost another pound which means I have lost a total of 15 pounds in the last 2  months or so. WOO-HOO!! This is the most weight I have ever lost. In the past, I would quit after the first few weeks. I'm not quitting this time. I'm going to keep going until I get down to 130 pounds.

End of week 12

From the end of week 11 till now, I lost 1.5 lbs which puts me at 182, now I just have to exercise more often so I can lose 2 pounds per week. I actually want to lose 3 pounds this week because on October 8th, it's my 1 year anniversary with Matthew and I want to be out of the 180's. I'm shooting for 179. so I want to start walking and running everyday until Friday. I want to get at least 3 miles on the walking days and on the running days, repeat week 3 or something.
