So, day three of my nutrition reset and I am not sure I am feeling any different – yet. We have over 70 athletes doing the reset and what is amazing is how many are trying to find loopholes.  Can I have Paleo Cookies? What about using Stevia? You mean Gum is not allowed?  Something about the act of looking for loopholes bothers me – Are you committed? Do you want to see results? If Yes- Loopholes aren’t going to cut it.  Own that fact and move on.

That’s not to say we all – myself included – don’t make wrong decisions or use the loopholes, but you have to be honest about it and move on.  OWN IT PEOPLE – is that too hard to ask for?

I don’t know if I mentioned but almost a year ago, I started to have a rash on the back of my legs. I showed my General Dr and he gave me some antibiotic solution but it didn’ take care of it, so he put me on some antibiotics. Fast forward to about a month ago, I finally went to the dermatologist because it hasn’t gotten any better and in fact, it’s worse. The back of my legs look like I have chickenpox – all over them!  Turns out I have a myco bacterial infection and have to be on antibiotics for at least two months before I will see any improvement. And that’s just an improvement.   Mycobacteria are a type of germ — and can have no symptoms or have a ton.  One of the symptoms is loss of energy.

Gross I know — but it’s a good lesson in making sure you treat any odd rashes, open wounds etc pronto. I have seen a bunch of people at the gym ignore stuff and then see an infection develop.  Also, now I am on antibiotics for a lot longer than I care to be and it’s affecting my physical health in other ways.

I’m more tired than usual. I have more fatigue than normal and guess what else, it’s affecting my mood. All things that affect my performance inside and outside of the GYM.  Anyways — I know TMI! The morale of the story — get stuff checked out!

I’m going to see Maroon 5 tonight with Scotty. We bought tickets a long time ago and I can’t believe it’s here already! I’m so excited –whoo hooo.
