As always, I thought I had it all figured out. I was almost to my “target weight.” I was running 8 minute miles; Running 5ks, placing in my age group. I was in the best shape of my entire life.
On March 2, 2019 I was rushed to the hospital and put in the ICU for 5 days. Diagnosed first with a stroke- later to find out it is a manageable condition but very life altering- hemiplegic migraines.
Not just any kind of migraines. A type that mimics a stroke. The effects of each episode can be permanent.
It took a few months to figure out the two things causing my episodes. Late, stressful nights at work as a nurse. Manageable, I’ll change to a different shift.
And running. Overheating. Also, manageable- but slightly heartbreaking.
I decided that I was going to have a “glass half full” attitude towards this. Modify my diet and increase my walking so that weight regain was not an option.
I had finally found the exercise that I loved and it was being taken away from me. Along with a shift at work that I loved.
Life is all about perspective. You can either choose to throw in the towel or you can make the best of what gets thrown your way.
I have maintained my weight since the day I was released from the hospital.
