Feeling much better today
I woke up and the migraine had finally broken. I was left with the aftermath, hungover type feeling, and I haven’t slept well in weeks, but at least the headache was GONE.
Today was back to my more regular, healthy eating: cereal and coffee for breakfast, protein bar for mid-morning snack, crackers and cheese, carrots and Greek yogurt for lunch. Water all day. The only real lapse has been the See’s candy bordeaux (spelling?) and one Hershey’s kiss that I just ate, but two candies aren’t going to be the end of me. It feels good to get back to the basics and stop poisoning my body with so much fat and sugar.
DD and I went to the beach after school today. We brought our lunches and sat on the sand to eat, then went for a walk with the metal detector she got for Christmas, looking for treasures. Found lots of bottle caps and some strange rusty metal object, but nothing interesting to bring home. It was nice being at the beach, watching the waves and enjoying some sun. I think there’s a slight chance of rain tomorrow afternoon, so it’s good that we went today. We also ran our other errands, exchanging a pair of socks that was too small and paying a visit to the bread outlet for bread (duh) and other goodies. Our bread outlet carries Bob’s Red Mill products, which I love. I got some rolled oats, ground flaxseed and seven grain cereal, and I am thinking they will make for interesting ingredients in muffins and pancakes, and maybe even some bread if DD and I decide to try our hand at some.
It is so good to feel good. More than anything, I hate missing out on my life when I’m stuck in bed feeling so miserable.
