Lesson learned...

I am writing this so that I don't forget it, and I know all who read this are going to be giving me a telepathic smack upside the head. 

For the last week or so I've been a little down... and in doing so I have not been eating well.  Binging on unhealthy foods, and not eating more than once a day.  Then lets fast forward to this morning...

Its friday, its time for my meeting with my personal trainer.  I get up like I usually do, swallow a glass of milk and half a muffin and head out to the gym.  Ten minute warm up on cardio... 3 new excersizes... interesting definitely new felt the burn... and then we went back for the second set, and half way through the first one ( lunge with a cable row) when all of a sudden, It got really warm... my eye sight suddenly went all fuzzy, and I felt like my legs were going to give out and I was going to tip over.  I stood up,let the weights down and put my hand on the machine closest to me.  At which point my lovely trainer stepped in close  and said," You're going to sit down, what did you eat today?"

She then told me that her first clue was that my face had totally gone pale, and I looked like I was going to be sick.  Which was great cause I was nauseus as hell...  Needless to say I ended up laying on the floor with my feet in the air and drinking a bottle of juice before she would let me drive home.  In addition to my appointment next week, she has " highly advised" that I no longer go to the gym unless I've had a substantial breakfast.  In addition she reccomended that I work on getting a steady flow of food into my system. 

Whats the phrase- First rule... must take care of yourself...


LESSON LEARNED.

I'll write some mor later, but wanted to get that down...
