Maybe I should be more careful...

I have been jogging almost every day this past week, with my longest run ever at 3 miles on Thursday. I have also been working out a lot and I have seen improvement on my body from it. I have also been dieting, simply by eating less and drinking a lot more water. I have not officially made this decision, but I think I might want to cut out red meat for a while. My worst food day was yesterday, when all I had was two tuna sandwiches for dinner, which was after a run and workout. I felt really hungry after a couple of hours, but I ignored it. Ayway, today my stepdad and I went out to lunch with his mom, daughter, grandson, son-in-law, and the son-in-law's parents, who I met for the first time. We first walked into a coffe shop, and right after we walked in, I had difficulty breathing. It was a little scary for me, as I had never experienced something like that before. Immediately after, I could feel a large abount of blood rush to my head; I thought I was going to pass out.

Fortuanately, I did not pass out. However, I still felt really weird until we ate. I ended up eating a decent amount, but soon after, other problems arose. As I finished, every muscle in my body began to ache like nobody's business. It was as if all the soreness had laid dormant until the appropriate time came about, which happened to be right after lunch. It really doesnt sound that bad from reading about it, but the experience was something that I would not prefer, especially when I want to socialize with such nice people, but can't because my body is literally shiverring from the pain.

It made me realize that I really should take better care of myself; overeating and binging on junk food are not the only ways to damage the body...
