So I have a huge dilemma right now. I swam the last three days, but no where near a normal workout. And today was the pits. So this is the dilemma. I am eating 960 calories a day, and I have been taken completely off my blood pressure medicine, so I now have a fully functional heart rate - bad for me since I could swim forever without getting tired. Now because I believe my heart rate is normal, so exercise more of a struggle. Point in fact I couldn't do 4 laps in a row without stopping. My leg cramped early in the work out which led to an abbreviated workout today. I have never had so little stamina, and at this point of writing I am falling asleep at the computer - I am exhausted.
So I am also starving. I am wanting to eat anything - I don't care. After swimming I ate my two bars immediately, when I got home I drank my shake and had my soup, so it isn't as bad right now as it was 10 minutes ago, but still it is hard. My dilemma, am I going to have to give up swimming until I am more aerobic?
I will try again tomorrow morning, but I am not sure how I am going to address the cramps and the sheer exhaustion.

PLEASE talk with the facilitator/doctor at group. I think they're going to up your caloric intake since you're burning off mega-calories.
ReplyDeleteSwimming has double benefits - burn calories AND get you faster so the Master's Program becomes a realistic option.
Please, please, please talk with them & see what to do. I suspect one more product & one more soup is the answer.
