I'll start with the bad. I woke up with a monster headache. I actually had it after I got home last night from the gym, but it went away after dinner. This morning I woke up with a migraine. It honestly felt like someone was squeezing my head from all sides. I fought it and got up and went to work. I ate my greek yogurt with fruit in order to take some excedrin tension headache and had both coffee and tea. By 11am, I thought I was going to throw up in my office, so I made my exit and came home. Took pills, laid in bed with the window open - it was 13 degrees here, but the cold always helps. Finally at 7:25pm I feel normal again. Ugh! It's amazing the power a headache has on us.
The good. I ate like a champion today. After I got home I had salad with cucumbers and chicken. I had a luna bar for a snack today and then had a turkey burger sans bun and salad for dinner. I roasted veggies tonight - portabella mushrooms, red and yellow peppers, zucchini and squash, onion and asparagus and added them all to my salad. It was YUMMY! I am definitely feeling in the groove. NSV for me today...I had to go to CVS this afternoon to pick up a prescription. I wanted a snack and it was the power of a zone bar that got me up and to CVS. A zone bar...not a snickers bar which would have been my previous m.o. No zone bar to be found, so I headed to the gourmet convenience store on the corner. Every kind of bar you could imagine except a zone bar. So, I got a luna bar instead. Such a good decision. Wasn't even tempted by the snickers!
Made my salad for lunch tomorrow - grilled chicken with roasted veggies and am typing from bed. My plan tomorrow is to work out after work - day two of my 5k program. Tomorrow night, I'm thinking marinated, grilled chicken with little red potatoes. I'm really enjoying cooking again. Although, I didn't make the turkey burgers. Have to thank the amazing boyfriend for those!
Off to drink water, eat a banana and head to bed. Making my fill appointment tomorrow. Nothing got done today!
Hope you're all great!

Glad you're feeling better and great choices today! Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteBananas have a lot of fiber, as do all the veggies you have been eating...good for pooping! Heather gets migraines and its terrible for me and for her. I have never had one, and when she gets one I want to tend to her, but that only makes it worse so I have to stay away from her. She loses feelin in hands and her vision blurs, and she usually pukes from the meds. So I feel for you. Good job on the food sister.
