It is 135 Days since I started my 365 Day Food Diary! ๐ I am DONE my entire round of antibiotics and I only have 2 more days of Prednisone! โบ๏ธ
With chronic respiratory issues, this has NOT been my first rodeo with antibiotics and Prednisone, but for whatever reason, this has been a rough one.
Yesterday, I was finally feeling pretty good once I got past the high humidity in the morning.ย ย I had a great aerobic workout and I got some kitchen deep cleaning done.ย
My only issue was a serious appetite ALL day.ย I don’t know if my body needed the calories to recover, if I haven’t been drinking enough water, or if it was the Prednisone talking – but I was HUNGRY all day.
I had a good enough breakfast, and lunch, but supper was over the top.ย I chopped everything up for the stir fry and Dan came in and offered to cook it.ย It was amazing. It was dessert worthy amazing!
I blew through both my net calories and saturated fat goals for the day, but there you go.ย ย In the past two weeks, I only totally missed one workout, we took a few walks, and I was somewhat productive even on my worst days.ย
Fall down, get back up, repeat.ย But the falls get fewerย and the get back up comes sooner.ย It is progress. ๐

Looking fab, Anne! My guess for the hunger is the prednisone.

Thank you, Terry! Probably. ๐ I wonder if my doctor could give me 25mg for twice as long? I’ll have to ask him next week. It seems the side effects are getting worse every time I get it now.
