White Bread and Cheesecake

I have been sick more times this spring/summer that I was all of last year.  I had a stomach bug, a sore throat, and a fever.  Each virus was about two weeks apart from the previous one.  I have been dieting and I have been working out and I am worried that the two are connected.  My mission to be healthier has made me sick. To remedy this I have started to take a multivitamin.  In addition to my Vitamin D and Vitamin C tabs I have been taking.

I am sure part of it is that like a virus laden winter this June/July we are all cooped up insidebecause it has been so hot.
I am not giving up on my diet but I am trying to make sure it is more balanced. I have been eating a ton of fruits and veggies a little bit of carbs and protein at dinner.  I have now added a boiled egg to breakfast and hummus to my afternoon veggie snack and a cheese stick.  I feel like I am not losing as much weight as I should and that very well could be because I was in starvation mode.
There is a fitness challenge at work and I have been the team cheerleader.  This is such a new role for me.  I have never been excited about fitness.  I have realized that I have a negative association with exercise.  This comes from so many places in my childhood that it is no wonder that I have fitness issues.
I think it is interesting to see that there is a fitness trend in our country right now.  We may have actually survived the obesity epidemic and came out on the other side.  “You would never have believed it Sary there was white bread and cheesecake everywhere!”
