Today, it is snowing and a chilly 18 degrees outside. Tomorrow in La Crosse, Wisconsin the weather will drop to -5. The cold has been able to attack my bones quicker than anticipated, though I can proudly say that I’ve managed to stay healthy. But the weather has left me tired and distraught; unprepared for the days to come.
I woke this morning wondering if I should just call everything off. I’ve been feeling extremely lethargic and unmotivated as of late. I fall asleep earlier and wake up later than I have in many years. And when I wake, I'm left with a small headache that begins to wear off after three hours. The days are slow and the nights are long but still I progress. My energy has been less than average and I don’t think that I’m as happy and outgoing as usual. It bums me out that the people I meet everyday aren’t getting an accurate representation of who I am.
I haven’t had a chance to weight myself lately but I’m very interested to see how big of a hit my body has taken. This is the scariest byproduct of the demonstration. To let my body go through this has left me terrified.
I’ve been getting emails from friends and family that have been encouraging and motivating. Thank you for caring about my cause and me.
