littleamy's Journal, 24 January 2013

Woke up this morning feeling sick, light headed and burning on the back of my neck - Amy's classic signs of low blood sugar.
I reviewed how I went yesterday, and realised I'd had less than a thousand calories and 5.5 hours of high intensity exercise. Not a good move. I weighed myself out of interest - I'd lost half a kilo in one day, which is not healthy weight loss for someone my size. I'm only aiming to lose some puppy fat and tone up ready for my dancing competitions. I am in no way aiming to be a stick. Decided to take it slow today, and up my calories slightly.

I really admire your dedication to physical activity. I was quite active as a kid, but now I have chronic pain to deal with, so exercise is not so easy.

I know the feeling, Anjya! After 12 years of irish dancing, I now have 12 existing injuries to try and deal with! It's always entertaining seeing PTs or physiotherapists. As long as you're in touch with how much your body can handle, and what type of work, exercise can still be beneficial and fun. What did you do as a kid?

I really enjoyed track and field, particularly sprinting. I also fiddled in gymnastics. I won't go into the details, but circumstances led to it being almost impossible to do by my mid-teens. My best recommended exercise right now by my physician is to just move for the sake of it, even if it's just walking a little bit each day.
