I know counting calories seems like a lot of work, but I actually don't count them. I have just fallen into the habit of eating a certain way and in general my calories stay around 1200-1400 naturally. I have to really pig out to get that high. In fact, I have to make an effort to get over 1200.

I hope you're doing okay after your cancer removal. I had breast cancer in '96. It had moved to two lymph nodes. I had lumpectomy, chemo, and radiation.

I know it doesn't make sense to a lot of people about too much exercise and hypo, but I've seen a correlation from listening to a verbal history from a lot of people. And indeed, your marathon might have been the straw that pushed you over the edge.

Good luck.

Virginia
