WHAT FOOD CAN DO

Food can fill our stomachs
It cannot fill our souls
Food can nourish our bodies
It cannot nourish our hearts and minds
Food can make our tastebuds happy
It cannot make us happy
Food can give us momentary pleasure
It cannot give us lasting pleasure
Food can distract us from our pain
It cannot take away our pain.

I saw this posted by my facebook friend who's a fitness coach this afternoon as I was lying on my bed in pain & exhausted, eating the last of my crunchy sesame bars straight out of the freezer. Check my food diary; that & special dark kisses are listed as my dinner, I kid you not.

Doctor's appointment early, x-ray of foot finally, dealing with upsetting stuff at my apartment, partner too busy to read my text, not able to exercise (fatigue &pain) today, Zumba withdrawal; oy vey! I have new orthotic shoe to maybe help my foot, but today it just hurts. My doctor was wonderful, did everything possible to help. I just took a half pill for muscle tightness that she suggested - I normally just take one at bedtime. Crossing my fingers! Gotta work better than chocolate (something inside me just cried "blasphemy!"). :o)

Tomorrow will be a fresh new day. I will either will wake up well rested & go to Zumba, or will sleep in and then go to Bodypump & CXWORX at noon. I will regain my positive outlook and can-do spirit.

I am sorry you are in such pain and are also dealing with other life crap. Hope the pain pill helps relax the muscles somewhat and that you are up and doing and feeling better tomorrow. And food does not give lasting pleasure but that momentary bliss when chocolate melts in your mouth - aaaaaaah.

Enjoy Zumba but hope you don't overdo it - I think you are addicted to exercise - lol - I should have such an affliction :)
