So I have a headache. A bad headache. Bright lights make my eyes hurt. And no, I don’t have a hangover, honest!
I’m trying the usual things… Motrin. Excedrin. Napping. A warm bath. And I’m trying the not-so-usual things. Two Weight Watchers bagels. Two large bowls of beans and rice. A big bowl of Fiber One. Not a very exciting binge, eh? Nothing like the raw cookie dough of days past.
The good thing about getting rid of the junk around the house is that I’m pretty limited in how I can self-medicate with food. Nonetheless, now on top of feeling sick I also get to kick myself for expecting food to make me feel better.
Though it’s not that unreasonable a hope? If I don’t eat, I get headaches and become… unpleasant. Just ask my family. Wait, don’t ask my family.
Just goes to show that my new healthy habits aren’t as habitual as I’d like. How do you stay on course when life takes a turn?
