Feeling dizzy
Anyone else feel like this? I recently started running, and when I ran on Friday, I came home and have felt kinda dizzy all weekend I'm also doing WW...
On Friday I did something stupid, I ate almost nothing all day to save my points for a big dinner out, and was beyond stuffed when I came home Fri night
I don't know, maybe I just screwed myself up with eating/working out these past few days to make myself feel like this?
Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Re: Feeling dizzy
Make sure you always having at least something small in your stomach before exercising. Never exercise on a completely empty stomach.
As for what to do now? Start over. Today is a new day. Plan out your meals, times, and exercises. Go slow and don't jump into it all at once.

Re: Feeling dizzy
Make sure you are well hydrated. If you are just starting to run, sometimes it's easy to forget to take in substantially more fluids. If I am dehydrated, I will sometimes feel funky for a bit.

It sounds like it's just something new to your body. Listen to your body though--it's sending you some pretty strong messages--don't run again without proper nutrition and hydration. It's not worth feeling lousy afterwards.

Re: Feeling dizzy
It does sound like the lack of food, but could you be breathing too hard as well? A slow training pace should be three strides for every breath. 2 for tempo speeds and 1 for all out sprints (think Usain Bolt, not 5Ks)
