I am a fool

I am a fool. Why you ask? Well I was doing great today. I woke up and got dressed. I even put on makeup for the first time in weeks. I had a banana and took my medicine. I went outside on the front porch and read...for 3 and 1/2 hours. I kept hydrated and had a small snack. I came in the house and helped my sister decorate cupcakes. I was doing really great. Then I took my dog on a really long walk. That was a mistake. Halfway through my walk I realize that I haven’t eaten anything all day besides a banana and a couple of pretzels. I finally get home and I am shaking so bad, my brain is foggy and I can barely open my eyes. Lessons learned from this? Know your limits. Keep up on hydration and make sure to eat. Be gentle with yourself.
