The 2nd day of 2011 was great TOO!! We went to bed about midnight and Brad woke me up at 6:40AM this morning to get ready for church so yea, I was tired from not much sleep. Church went very well and It was wonderful to go again since I haven’t been in a few weeks. I did get to feeling a bit lightheaded since I was tired and hungry even after a snack at church but after we came home, I fixed lunch and have been munching on stuff all afternoon since I feel hungry but It’s not overeating like I was doing weeks ago! Katie went down for her nap and we were just hanging out. I was starting to get cold and wiped out so I laid down at almost 5PM and went to sleep!!! I got up around 5:40PM and feel a little tired but GOOD! I took my b12 and iron pill tonight and I’m sitting here eating a big ole’ dinner plate consisting of sweet potato, veggie beans and PILE of side veggies! It’s awesome.

SO I WAS (or should say still AM) ANEMIC. Thinking back on it – I guess my PROLONGED restricted diet when I was losing weight initially caused the anemia. My first “sign” was in August 2009 with the missed period and around that time I noticed little things as well but always just brushed it off… as I tend to do a lot. It went untreated and just got worse and worse… and worse and worse. I was anemic for over a year. I’m just glad I’ve found the solution and now to just build up my iron/b12 levels and get back to feeling ENERGETIC and full of life with a crystal clear mind. I’ve been waiting to feel this way for a long time… it has felt like an ETERNITY.

I can’t wait to:
– sleep DEEP ALL NIGHT
– get my SEX DRIVE back, YESSSSS
– get back INTO RUNNING
– lose my weight that ive gained + a few more and get ripped/TONED

I am stoked !!! I feel so thankful, grateful and blessed even through all the bad of 2010, there were little bits of goodness in there too. Take the good with the bad and the bad with the good. I’m thankful for my Heavenly Father and The Gospel. Everything I’ve learned with the church has helped me become who I am today.

Yup, this is gonna be a true ROCKIN’ year. :love:
