A sad day today, but with it comes some inspiration to be healthy. My favourite uncle ever, my Uncle Barry, passed away this morning after his liver basically gave out on him. He's been an alcoholic since his teenage years, and was only turning 60 this year, which is two years older than my dad. My dad quit drinking over 30 years ago, though. It has always been said to me that alcohol is a deadly habit, and I should have realized it when my exboyfriend was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver at age 23 a few years ago. In excess, it hurts your body, and everytime you're intoxicated, I think we should consider that excess. My uncle drank whiskey for breakfast, so his excess exceeds most of our worst nights, I imagine. The news is horrible, especially since he was on life support for his son's wedding and died two days after the wedding. I think that's the saddest part of it all. I know he would have made better choices if he could have realized how it might end. Or maybe not. People have demons. My dad called me this morning to tell me and was really choked up. I can handle my mom being sad but when my dad is sad, it kills me. :(

I am restarting my exercise regime tonight. I have been trying very hard to sleep on my back with a flat pillow to prevent the shoulder/neck pain from getting worse. I woke up in the middle of the night feeling almost 100%, then promptly went back to sleep on my side and woke up sore. Damnit. Weird that I've been sleeping this way my whole life and now it's causing issues! kstubblefield, thanks for the thermacare heating pad idea. I bought some knockoff ones yesterday afternoon and the pain was gone all day at work! Magical. You are wonderful! :)

Something else weird that I have noticed is my attitude to food, and I think it's a positive change that comes from really paying attention to what's going on in my body. Everyday for lunch at work, I go to the supermarket next door that also has a deli/hot food section. I never used to think much about what goes into the food that's prepared for me, but it's really difficult for me to eat things that aren't very simple, like raw ingredients or things with less than 5 ingredients in them, which is something I think I read in Food Rules, by Michael Pollan. For example today, I could have had any number of things: there was an italian buffet, sushi, sandwiches, pizza, soups, etc. I chose tuna slices, carrot sticks, celery, broccoli, grapes and blueberries, and that was what was most appetizing to me. I also watch a LOT of food network shows, and one of my favourites, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, looks worse and worse everytime I watch it. I also caught Gordon Ramsey's new series, Masterchef, last night, and was pretty grossed out by something I probably used to eat without much reservation. It was potatoes swimming in about a cup of butter, a cup of cheese, bacon, and heavy cream. I'm not much afraid of fats by any means, but they showed the guy pouring a whole saucepan full of melting butter into the pan and my stomach turned. I had to look away in disgust! I hope this is a healthy reaction to excess, rather than me developing a fear of food, which could be bad.

Wow, lots of writing today, I'm trying to get my mind off of stuff so I can concentrate on work, I think this helped! :P

Pretty sure my progress will slow for a bit, unfortunately. I've found it difficult to exercise with my neck and left shoulder being so sore. I'm sort of worried about it because I never have any muscle pain (besides the after-workout soreness), but I don't even know what to do about it. Do I go see a normal doctor, a special one? Is there a magic fix I don't know about? My mom recommended very careful, light stretching of the area, and shes' been through physio so she knows a bit about how far you can push yourself without damage. I've also been taking a lot of pain pills that I normally avoid. Sometimes I feel almost 100% and then I'll sit down for about 15 minutes and it's hard to get myself back up without a lot of pain. Ugh. Sorry if it sounds like whining, it really doesn't hurt that bad when I am in the right positioning, but I think the worry is the worst of it. I do feel hunched over most of the time though, and probably look a bit silly. Oh well. I'll take a slow in weight loss over hurting myself more. If anyone has any suggestions that aren't too extreme I'll take 'em! It feels the worst in the morning and I usually can't turn my neck, and feels better after rubbing, moving a bit or taking a hot bath. And it's been sore since Friday morning. Anyone else experience this?

When I woke up this morning I thought it was my TOM, but it turned out the abundance of beets I had for dinner last night turned my pee pinkish-red, lol. I've seen electric yellow from B vitamins but never red. Weird. I do love beets though!

On Sunday I woke up with the hugest craving for chocolate, specifically ice cream. I had it in my head I was going to go buy some, so I headed off to the store. On the way to the store, there's a hair salon with mirror windows, and I always sort of check myself out in it, because I don't have a full length mirror in my house. I looked so thin from the last time I saw myself in there! I knew that was because of the better choices I'd been making. So when I got to the store I spent a lot of time staring at the ice cream freezer, but none of the choices seemed worth it. I opted for strawberries with a little bit of chocolate syrup to dip them into, but I am a bit nervous about having a whole bottle of chocolate syrup now in my refrigerator! But then again, I've had a bottle of vodka in there for months untouched too, so surely I can control myself!
