Happy May Day my Best Buddies!
I just came home from my workout - it was tough! I have a sinus headache...and possibly reacting to some white flour wheat I ate yesterday while at the winery with friends. I had my usual flax crackers and guacamole...but did have some French bread and cheese! Bloated my weight up like three pounds!

You are very brave to work out with a sinus headache. I've not been to the gym this whole allergy season -- I just couldn't do it. I felt like I was on another planet.

I feel much better now - part of the headache was caused by hunger. I had not eaten solid food since 3:00pm Saturday so about a 22 hour unintentional fast.

I always get a headache if i don't eat regularly, HCB. Glad yours finally went away. Good on you for working out, despite the headache You are an inspiration.

Bread does the same thing to me... It's instant weight gain and major bloat! Glad to see you powered through your workout while feeling bad. You're an inspiration to us all!

Oh HCB -- I can't go that long without eating! I am amazed by folks on FS who do the fasting routine. One of the fundamentals of my plan is keeping my blood sugar relatively stable throughout the day -- because I have learned that if I don't do that, I start feeling light headed and also, frankly, crabby, and it's particularly noticeable if I'm driving. I lose focus, which, obviously, is not safe. So now I make sure that I always have a Luna Bar or a Kind Bar with me when I know that my schedule is going to keep me from eating at my regular mealtime. I no longer drive home from the gym feeling light headed -- I eat a Kind Bar and it's amazing how quickly I feel better. So I am in awe of fasters!

LOL @ Glen - I know! We had a fun time! The wine and cheese was OK - it really was the high carb wheat gluten bread...but so delicious!
