That is more like it. That is the foods that I need to be eating. Well except the hamburger one...but I am working on that.
I elected to take the 11-8 shift at work as it was not going from one extreme to the other like I have the last 6 months. What I did not think about was that covered both lunch and dinner time. Now I have to more aptly figure out something to eat while working and something to eat after working out. (Love having the gym downstairs - not sure why I have not used it all these years).
Today, as a matter of fact, I was working out with my CIO and two of his directors. What pressure...not. I am hurting with the ruptured disc in my back after that 4 hour trek on Saturday but I am not letting that win. If I let that win I will never end up getting anywhere. Instead I took it really easy on the treadmill for half an hour and then kept all other activities light.
Tonight, though, I think I am going to have to break out the heating pad.
I feel slightly tired today. I know that sleep pattern last night was rough even with the mask. I know between the pain in my back and the subconcious chewing over everything that is going on I am eroding into the sleep patterns. I did have a dream about work and one about a heavy metal girl. Think her name was Tammy but I could never get a clear view of her. I think I have to let some of this just go away that is bottled up in my head. Need to see if I can meditate in the morning and find out more about Qigong. Read a lot about it online but there are no teachers nearby and the vidoes online were low res and driving me nuts.
I know I am rambling but there is so much spinning around in my head I need to let some of it burn off. So forgive my segmented thoughts and I get to see my doc in the morning and maybe discuss what his views are on interdimensional travel....or the issue with my PFO. I think he will take the latter subject and maybe call the men in white on me for the first.
See ya!
