low

I'm loving the spring weather and getting outside easier. I am mourning the return of headaches, sometimes migraine. I deal the best I can but never like it. I don't like the drugs I have for them and usually try Advil/ice first. The pills need to be taken with food and I never want to eat when they are bad, so I avoid taking them unless really needed. I used to use maxalt which was great, fast and effective, but since I started taking an antidepressant, I can't take them any more. Just to clarify, it's causing me to feel a little low physically, but not emotionally.

In the bigger picture, I'm still feeling pretty good, doing ok with food and continuing to learn as I go. I weighed in at the Y this morning at 181 lbs, for a total loss of 113 lbs and one more to my next goal. It's kind of funny that in the past I have not felt comfortable talking about how much I weigh, but now when people tell me I'm skinny or getting too thin, I just tell them how much I weigh! I think it helps to dispel the notion that they know what is healthy for others, as well as helping them to understand that everyone's different and looks can be deceiving.

That's it for tonight, back to nursing this headache.
Love, elly
