The Days Before...

I'd like to capture how I feel leading up to the change. Early 2011 I had been on a roll, working out 8 hours a week, eating green smoothies and veggies more frequently and other "healthy" foods. I gained 7 lbs over the course of 6 months. That was discouraging. So I tightened my lapband and then fell out of working out as often. I never quit yoga though. But I can tell I don't feel as good as I did then.

I actually dislike complaining about "aches and pains" because it makes me feel old and weak.

But here goes:

Acid reflux (I may need unfilled a bit)
Morning fatigue
Afternoon fatigue
Left spine, hip, hamstring and IT pain (constant)
Feeling bloaty
Slow mobility
Difficulty concentrating
Left shoulder/neck pain (for months now)
Lethargic (intermittently)
Some breakouts
Less ambition / energy
Maintaining but never losing weight
High triglycerides (haven't had them tested in a while but I know they have been high)
Cell dehydration (Had testing that showed not enough hydration)
Don't naturally fall asleep at night (force myself to go to bed, and usually too late)
NOT a morning person
