The pill anyone?

I hate starting out a blog post via apology but sorry for continuing to be MIA. I've been in a weird funk lately... Not sure if it is from getting adjusted from the move, lack of structured training and training partners, or if it's simply exhaustion from being back in the real world working 8-5.

Regardless- I've been sort of anti-triathlon. I needed a solid month to clear my head and put the t-word on the back burner. Not waking up at 4:30 several times a week and not spending 90% of my weekend swimming, biking, and running has been kinda fun. But I think I'm ready to come back. Oh Mr. Ironman training here I come!

Anyway this is a random post but here goes~This week I wanted to get your thoughts on oral contraceptive use in the female endurance athlete population? ???Yes? No???

I started taking Yasmin again about a month ago. Not ready for the whole preggo thing anytime soon. And besides my wiener dog is way cooler lol..

This may be contributing to my bi-polar-apathetic-low-energy funk. I think I'm ready to get off of it already. I feel like a crazy person at times. Not sure how much longer I can tolerate the side effects. And I really don't want it to negatively affect my performance.

So I'm asking for advice! I would love to know if anyone has had success with a certain pill or if I'm better off saying screw it~
