Had a wedding on Saturday here in Savannah, and am really proud of how well my body held up. I used the segway to get me around long distances, and was able to stand while doing the actual "shooting". Working as a team with E-S is getting easier, which allow my body to not bear all of the weight of the photos and the stress of the wedding day. Yesterday I was good to keep up on my chromium dosages, I stayed in bed all day not putting forth much physical effort and got two solid nights of sleep while eating well at the wedding and at home since.
