The Tango with Vertigo

I feel for every step I take towards lesser weight, better health, I get pushed backwards 10 steps. This time it's vertigo. Didn't know this illness could be so crippling and anxiety inducing. Though my best buddy says think of the whole process as exploring your limits and move forward from there, it's been tough to do that because all I can see are the many ways this whole thing can bring my life to a halt. I love to drive and I've been advised not to for a small period at the moment. I just started t work out and that's another no go. No bending and lifting weights. And always stay hydrated. I don't know the cause but I definitely know I don't like the effects. Trying not to build mountains.

Goals and Resolutions

Why wait till a new year to begin focussing on health! Since I wasn't going to wait, gym membership it is. Of the 3 weeks, attended only 5 days. And where the focus is health and fitness, so far I've succeeded in catching a cold, suffering through a fever, was close to losing my voice,  fatigue is a constant companion and vertigo just made it presence felt. Oh! I crossed over into cholesterol land. Got to see what else I have coming up my way to stay healthy in body, soul and mind. The heart is on vacation 😁.
