I decided to go to work today since I got some pain meds. to help with my jaw pain. So I was up at 5:45am. For breakfast at about 6:30am, while I was getting ready, I ate 2 pieces of toast and a nutrigrain bar with a 20 oz. bottle of water. At 10:00am I had a lara bar for my mid-morning snack. For lunch I had a Roasted Chicken footlong on wheat from Subway. For toppings I got lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, green peppers, pickles, olives, mustard and vinegar. While eating my lunch my jaw started to really hurt, so I rushed back to work to get my ice pack (I had already taken my pain pill), but by the time I got to the parking lot it stopped hurting. That's what's so weird about this. I've been taking my pain pill every 4 hours so I don't have any pain, but I still end up having pain. Like right now, as I type this I am in pain, but I just took my pain pill about 30-45 mins. ago. And now my pain seems to be more in my neck and jaw. I just wish the pain would go away. It hurts so bad and it's in such a weird place. Anyways, for dinner I made Mexican Pasta. Here is the recipe: http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/healthified-mexican-pasta-skillet/e86a1cb2-a7b3-4cb7-906a-9a2d7a9c218f I've made this quite a few times. It's quick and you only need to use one pot. I don't use a skillet like it says to, I use a big pot so everything fits. When I made it tonight I didn't realize that I didn't have any corn so I chopped up a green pepper and added that instead. I also added some tortilla chips and fat free sour cream on top. I didn't eat dinner until about 9:00pm though. We had to run out to the store to get a gift for the wedding we're going to tomorrow and we didn't get back from the store until about 9:00pm. I also drank 41.5 oz throughout the day at work then 20 more oz. with dinner. For dessert I had 3 funfetti cake cookies. Two things that really suck about having this jaw pain is #1 I eat more to make sure I have enough food in my stomach to take my pain med. and #2 I feel so crappy and exhausted from being in pain then not being in pain then being in pain, etc. that I just do not have the energy to workout. If I don't feel better by Monday I'm going to call my dentist or doctor because something else must be wrong if I don't feel better by then. This morning I weighed 240.4, that's up, 4 lbs. from yesterday. And I drank 80 oz. of water today. I think tomorrow, after the wedding, I'm going to do some Pilates when I'm feeling ok. That's what I'm planning, but we'll have to wait and see. I'm very excited for the wedding, I should be able to eat healthy while there too.
