JenHZ Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 really glad I have this log. trying to figure out my headaches. was almost hoping for a food trigger. but actual seems to be mostly on weekends or days off. 5 of 7 bad headache days were on a day off. 1 other was the day my cold started and a smaller head ache was on one of the most messed up days of the year I feel like I need extra sleep since I only get 7 hours on week days but maybe not. naps might be a better choice. will try for hour sleep blocks on vacation cause I sure don't' want to feel like this.

ThyPeace Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Did you figure out your headache triggers yet? And I'm glad someone reminded you of the tuna/egg salad option. That's my go-to meal when I have to eat at DD's shul. I also had some whitefish salad not long ago that was absolutely fantastic. I'd like to know how to make that one. ThyPeace, not Jewish, but knows all the blessings and tutored a kid (DD) on her d'var Torah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenHZ Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 not sure yet but thanks for asking ThyPeace. going to skip services this week just in case as I have big plans Saturday. in the crash phase of a crash and burn after an intensive visit and taking my kid to doc for ADD med check. I would eat off W30 but have nothing in house that is both off plan and tasty. I guess that is good planning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThyPeace Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I would eat off W30 but have nothing in house that is both off plan and tasty. I guess that is good planning! Too funny! And yes, that is good planning. Hope you are continuing to have good days and less of the stressful kind. I have a meds check for DD's ADHD and anxiety meds today. Good thing it's by phone, because the roads are a mess around here today. ThyPeace, shoveling is today's exercise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThyPeace Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Soup and brisket! Awesome things. DH made steaks with baked potatoes, baked kale, grilled eggplant, and tomato slices last night for our movie night (Groundhog Day). I made lamb, apricot, sweet potato, and parsnip stew for supper for today. Food is good food! ThyPeace, so glad there were no headaches, off plan or not!

ThyPeace Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 What's Nia? And red wine occasionally gives me wicked headaches. I read that it is the tanins that do it,and they vary by the bottle of wine. I rarely drink so have not really worked to figure it out. Sardines in olive oil? Wow. I should try that. Someday. ThyPeace, cautious with fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenHZ Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 Nia is a fun and creative exercise dance class http://nianow.com/ no idea on the headaches yet other than Fridays in general I had another one Saturday 2/27. there was no red wine, there was no drinking after dinner, there was no place I don't go several days a week. there were no major stressors I had decaf coffee after dinner but only 2 ounces. a mild rain did happen Friday afternoon. I slept 9 hours Friday night to Saturday morning. last night I slept 8 and half hours and woke up naturally and no headache. Saturday I ate like crap, had a Guinness out, and stayed up till midnight. I really need to buy some frozen greenbeans for headache mornings. yesterday I resorted to kid's toaster pastries and then had more carbs throughout day. I had forgotten how hungry that makes me and how many carbs I have to eat to stop feeling hungry. Very weird to think I often felt like that.

JenHZ Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 Back from my trip, most indulgences were worth it. Actually a lot of them were close to compliant, like escargot. now plan is no more than 15 non compliant Meals ( or maybe days) between now and April 22, the start of Passover. There is nothing to hold me back except lack of planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenHZ Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 2 noncompliant meals yesterday some chocolate in afternoon ( could have planned around that) and homemade gingersnaps from visiting friend. I never pass those up and I should have realized he knew that and would bring me some. m1 today Thursday 3/10 3 large eggs scrambled in olive oil, pear, squash with onion and ghee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenHZ Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 I am not in a place yet where I can eat whole 30 without some cooking. got terribly sick over the weekend and did not eat much but what I ate was not w30. had a poptart, might be able to sub a microwaved sweet potato for that when I am not quite so nauseous had gingerale 3 times, ginger tea even with honey did not work as well had teriyaki chicken - spouse got that as take out for us as we were both too sick to cook also at chocolate Heath bars - no good sub for that would be good to have more soup in the freezer though I did have compliant packaged broth to eat M4 Thursday was compliant, as was M 4 Friday, and m 4 Saturday, and m 4 Sunday ( spouse well enough to cook then) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
