My energy level has dropped significantly. Everything I do takes significant effort, and I know this by looking at the clock and seeing how fast time is going compared to what I’ve accomplished. They showed me the sparkling water and gave me some peppermint oil to sniff to help with the nausea, and that seemed to help. I don’t think I am drinking enough water, which is not helping the situation.
I had a moment this morning when I questioned why I was doing this. I brought so much stuff to do, and one would think that without distractions, I could accomplish much of it, but now I am starting to wonder. The day is going by quickly and the littlest task takes so much energy. Other than low energy, I feel clearheaded.
I went to the morning class, a cooking demo by Cathy Fisher, who wrote the Straight Up Food cookbook. She made Creamy Coleslaw and Corn Chowder. How do you sit in a cooking demo when you are not eating? The thought of food right now is not appealing at all.
This day was ultimately a day of rest. I wanted to go outside, but it never got warm today, and I feel cold most of the time. So, I was mostly inside, and that did not feel good. Tomorrow is another day, and I am told that days three to five are the hardest.
