Oxygen....who knew??

its amazing how oxygen in your blood can really effect the way you feel. (duh, lani). but seriously, i'm feeling so much better since i've been taking the iron pills. i have been taking the iron twice a day for only 13 days now, and its incredible the difference. my dizzy spells are gone. i havent almost fainted. i can go to the store and come home and not have to take a 2 hour nap. i am beginning to feel the energy coming back.

most importantly today i exercised for the first time in many months. i'm a huge fan of the Walk Away The Pounds video series by Leslie Sansone. it combines walking (1,2,or 3 miles) with optional upper body weights to get a complete workout in the privacy and safety of your own home. i used to do this fairly regularly, but its been quite awhile since i last did it. even just the thought of walking from my bedroom to the living room was making me tired before, but today i was able to do the 1 mile walk, and i feel great!

so here's to the power of oxygen...who knew!?! :)
