Hello cyber world.  I'm focusing on feeling "normal" today.  Mind over matter?!?!

I feel better each morning, hit a wall by lunch and am blah by evening.  But today is a new day ... so maybe some more progress.

I didn't walk yesterday.  My head hurt and I listened.  This morning I feel pretty good.  12 hours of restful sleep does wonders.  I'm going to walk and see how it makes me feel.  Maybe some of my blahs are just from NOT moving.

A friend is picking me up for a HEALTHY lunch ... yea!  I get to blow dry my hair and get dressed.  JOY!!  Hope my jeans fit ... seriously ... I hope they fit.  Need perspective, not the end of the world ... but I still hope they fit.

In other news ...

I signed up for MyFitnessPal.com (the free version).  Not having much success.  I log breakfast and sometimes lunch - then call it quits.  Probably because I was stuffing my face with cupcakes and didn't want to "see" the damage.  In my defense, not the best time to start this ... BUT ..

It sort of plays with my "all or nothing" again.  Can't log any exercise so the day feels like a failure before it even starts.  So why bother??

I am giving myself some slack this week.  I do have a brain trauma after all!  Also, I'm not sure I want to calorie count.  I started so I could see percentages of macros (fats, carbs, protein).  Maybe I need to try it for a week when I'm back to normal eating (um, today!!).  Funny enough - it "hurts" to think about all of this.  Darn this concussion.

On that note ... time to stop thinking and do a little walking.  You'd think with all this brain rest, I'd be a champion meditator.  Maybe I am ... silver lining :-)
