Happy New Year!
Well, I am fairly certain the headache is a neck/back thing. I had my husband rub my back and shoulders last night and he hit a spot that was really tight. I told him to dig in some and when he did my entire scalp got tingly and tight. That is the kind of headache I've been having, like my scalp was on too tight and pushing down on my brains. I'm going to try laying on a heating pad and having him rub it before bed, and I'm going to buy a new pillow and maybe a mattress pad to see if that helps - and/or a chair massager, and/or yoga, and/or a chiropractor.
On the upside, I didn't have AS MUCH of one today after last night's back rub.
Today I am eating what I want. I am also drinking if I want. I haven't had anything to eat yet, but I making dinner at a friend's for their party. I am roasting a chicken and making fettucine alfredo and an endive salad with pears, walnuts, gorgonzola and a white wine apple cider vinagrette. We are also having champagne at midnight. I plan to enjoy all of these things responsibly since I don't want to dump or get sick, but I plan to taste some pasta and focus on the chicken and salad. Not sure if there is dessert, I'm not providing it. If there is, I'll have a bite or two but dessert doesn't hold much interest anymore (except when the hormones are acting up).
Other than dinner I will probably have some yogurt before I go to the gym, and a small lunch afterwards - I have some pinto beans and chicken in the freezer. I'm saving the calories for the evening.
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you have a wonderful evening!

B - fiber one no banana today
L - spinach salad
S - 2 cups popcorn
D - moo goo gai pan - chicken and veggies basically
I wound up eating my egg roll too 30 minutes later. My tummy is kinda pissed off right now.
S - later I plan on having a few drinks when we go out tonight and there's a tapas bar where we are going as well so I'll probably have something later.
There's a pelican drop tonight. NYC has it's ball, Georgia has it's peach drop, we are having our pelican drop this year. It's the first year and there will be fireworks too. Since the Theatre where I work is downtown, we've got a place to semi-crash for a while till the early morning.
Hope everyone has a great New Years Eve
