11/23:

5 mile treadmill progression run @ 1% incline, progression from 9-11 mph, in 30:45.
Wasn't too hard.
Jumping jacks dynamic drills.
Glad to be back home for Thanksgiving break. Going to get more bloodwork today. Because of anemia, actually thinking about ditching all my brown rice for white, maybe grits instead of oatmeal, to further enhance iron absorption that the phytates in whole grains can inhibit.  Hope it doesn't screw with my blood sugar though. Also going to try to incorporate clams, other mollusks, liver, etc. into my diet as they are all low in fat (which I need for my pancreas issues) but very high in absorbable iron. Use Vitamin C with my high iron intake to promote absorption. I hate that I track and know that I get all my iron through diet, AND take a multivitamin, ANDan iron supplement, and still have to worry about this. But alas...
