My Menopause Journal and Diet Days 16 though to Day 21

Well this week’s diet hasn’t gone very well.  My running partner has canceled 5 days in a row and I haven’t found the time to get back on my treadmill.  My food choices have been ok, except for the chinese food and cinnamon buns :-(  This week will be better.  I’m going to start exercising today!!!  My weight hasn’t increased, but I’m still constipated… I can’t figure out why… I’m drinking lots of water and I’m not eating too bad… lots of veggies and fruit.  I’m going to check with the health food store and see if they can give me something for it.

My moods have been all over the place this week. I think my hormones are way out of whack… I feel exhausted and a little depressed on some days and I’m not focusing very well.  I’m also extremely tired.  I’ve been having more hot flashes than normal and I feel like I could have a nap by 2:00 every day and find myself falling asleep right after dinner.  I’ve just started some new vitamins, so maybe that has something to do with it… you figure vitamins should give you energy not make you feel exhausted.

I’ll let you know how this week goes.  I’m determined to get back on track.
