Not-so-fab Friday

Has it really been a week since I posted?

The good news (for you) is it's not you, it's me. The bad news (for me) is it's not you, it's me.

It's been a tough week. Not mentally or emotionally- on that front I'm happy as a clam- but physically. I've been dealing with a lot of migraines recently which really drain me of any energy. I'm pretty frustrated because I'm not sure why this is going on. I've been trying to do everything right- get enough sleep, avoid stress if possible, exercise moderately, eat healthy foods, limit (but get enough) caffeine- and nothing's really helping. I didn't even go to hot yoga once this week because I didn't want to make anything worse. Anyway, enough complaining! I have a doctor's appointment September 7th (happy birthday, Kelly and Heather!) and will discuss it then. I've been resistant to preventive medication in the past because of various side effects but I may have to explore that this time.

Corey and I went running yesterday afternoon and since I'd been slacking on the blog, I thought we should take a picture first. Please take a look at my handsome husband's attempt to take a nice picture:




For real??? And he was actually trying! :)

We finally got a decent one:


On a very happy note, I just found out that I won an entry to the Public Health Matters 5k on Wednesday, September 21st! I haven't done a 5k in almost a year so it should be super fun! Yay!

  1. I just read that sunflower seed butter (like peanut butter) is a good source of magnesium, which helps prevent migraines. Are you taking magnesium supplements? Please note, I am in no way a doctor much less a nutritionist, but I do love reading magazines and this caught my eye and made me think of you.

  2. Hey lady! I'm not, but I'll definitely look into it! Thanks so much for thinking of me!
