Saturday morning and I still can't breathe

Day 6


UGH.... So I am sitting here drinking my Breathe Easy tea, in hopes that maybe, just maybe, it will do the trick.


I have been sick as a proverbial dawg since Tuesday night and I am still struggling to shake this thing, whatever it is. 

Because I am fasting I was very hesitant on trying to take any type of meds so for the first couple of days I went the homeopathic route...the Traditional Medicinal cold combo tea, the camphor on my chest, I even considered taking a Bikram yoga class in hopes of sweating the toxins out.....

After my rememdies did not produce the results I had hoped for I opted for the tried and true Alka Seltzer cold plus, my dad swears by it, and although I would never tell him, it actually does work.


All in all a pretty rough way to start the New Year, and the fast, but through it all I have remained obedient, save the bag of popcorn I did have last night. 

Really this time around it is not as hard as it was last year.  I will admit though, giving up my Social Media has proven to be a challenge but I have not wavered.  And I am finding that I am actually not really missing it as the time passes.


I am going to force myself to go work out, got to stay active. I did make myself get up and go to the gym on Thursday...epic fail, I could not even get in 5 minutes on the elliptical, I couldn't breathe.  But I did see my favorite couple there......This elderly couple that come in and work out together, they are so cute and the only thing that I can think when I see them is Genesis 2:18, and that means that sooner than later, and in Gods time, my "workout partner" will come....


Until that time I will continue this journey on my own to fit the pieces together..

Be well (cough cough sneeze sneeze)
xoxo
