Exhaustion - I have been utterly exhausted for no reason.  Just zapped of energy.  I think it's the cold weather, lack of sunlight, and cloudy days.  I have been drinking lots of water, eating fairly well, not gaining any weight (whew!), but none of it seems to boost my energy levels.  I love coffee, but it really disrupts my sleep, so I'm going to lay off until I start feeling normal again.

Having fun with GMB fitness - I've been experimenting with the free GMB fitness videos, and they're a lot of fun.  Right now I want to focus on crushing my PT test over the next few months, then I really want to finish the Insanity challenge (derailed after I fell down the stairs).  If I finish the Insanity challenge I might try the GMB Elements program.  I am really drawn to the increased flexibility and strength through movement and having fun. 

Foot - I really need to schedule an appt for my poor foot.  Dress shoes are killing me my bones.  I can't even step forward into a lunge with my left foot.
