Exercise Update
The first day I exercised as seen below, I did not push myself much. Why? Every time I started to go a little faster, my body started thumping against the seat because my heartbeat was so intense. Don't be hatin, It's a POTS thing. Today, no heartbeat knocking on the exercise seat effect. I was all, "woohoo!" So I went faster! Until, I began to get lightheaded. That means my heart was probably going too fast that it was no longer efficiently getting blood to my brain. And then I was all, "Well played POTS, well played." So I slowed down.
And then I thought, "Well maybe I was just being a wuss and it wasn't that bad." So I went faster again! But alas that blasted feeling of my head turning into a hot air balloon appeared again. So today turned into finding that border where I was still pedaling fast enough to be breathing heavier, but slow enough that I didn't get lightheaded.

PS The hams were DEFINITELY feeling it from yesterday. Yeehah!
You inspire me. I have been trying to exercise for a Biggest Looser competition that my work is doing. If you can do it I can do it. I am going on a run right now. Wish me luck!
