Qualifying exigency leave, like leave for a serious health condition, is a FMLA-qualifying reason for which an eligible employee may use his or her entitlement for up to 12 workweeks of FMLA leave each year.
Considerations. You can change your calorie intake during training if you feel it is necessary. If you're gaining weight, try eating 200 calories less per day. Likewise, if your training is suffering and you lack energy, you're probably not eating enough, so add in an extra 200 calories each day.
To optimize your training, when you eat as almost as important as what you eat, says triathlete Cindy Sherwin, a registered dietitian and personal trainer. Within an hour of finishing your run (and ideally within 30 minutes), you should refuel with a snack. Sherwin recommends that your post-run snack contain carbs and protein at a ratio of roughly 4-to-1.
