May 28, 2011 – Side Effects

I’m starting to feel the effects of the eating pattern we’re in. Eating makes me feel sick. I’m not used to eating on such a schedule, I usually just kind of eat when I’m hungry. And I usually am getting exercise during the day. Not so much here. I should probably clarify: we have it GREAT at the hotel we’re staying at. They feed us breakfast every morning and dinner every night, and it’s delicious food. We just don’t have a choice about what they bring us, and usually it’s very heavy and fried at dinner. It’s a rough way to end the night. My body is rebelling lol. I’m looking forward to having a little more say in what I eat when we get back to the States.

Speaking of side effects, this malaria medicine is giving most of us increasingly bizarre dreams. We’ve had some great breakfast conversations that revolve around the crazy dreams we’ve just woken up from. If you ever want to wake up with good stories to tell, I highly recommend Doxycyclin or Mefloquin. That is, if you don’t mind also waking up in the middle of the night with the intense desire to move your body. Cam and Dylan have both had to get up at odd hours of the night to stretch or do pushups because of their meds lol. Probably not healthy…
