Day 62
Since my latest health dilemma, I've done something crazy to my neck/beck. I've waken up plenty times with a crooked neck but this time the pain has stuck around for about a week now. I've been stretching and massaging and frankly nothing seems to be helping but driving (with my left arm) definitely made it worse. For this reason I've been reluctant to lift weights and I certainly do not need too much cardio. I'm not even certain stretching is a good idea but I am doing so with great care and minimal effort. I've noticed almost every day this new year I've been banged up. This is totally my year and so i guess the universe is getting it all out of the way early :-)

I've found a self-defense place in DC giving away a weeks work of classes...for FREE. Check out GT TV's calendar for details. I really wish I could get some in-home training. Not that I am embarrassed by my recent health issues, but since then I've noticed a huge difference in my ability and attitude towards working out. I mean yes I was bed-ridden for 5 days and in that time I left my apt once to go to urgent care and so my muscles were pissed at me at day 4. By the time I was able to walk around and stretch, omg you should've heard it. Yes. You should've heard my tissue ripping in my legs as I stretched. I could not understand this because I made sure to drink plenty of fluids but when you're in the fetal position for days what do you expect? I'm feeling much better and ready to get back into it but I think I need some professional attention especially since this sharp neck pain is killing me.

I must admit my diet has been off, off, off. My roommate came back and in doing so we began to compete for food. You see I have a special roommate. She eats EVERYTHING. She wants to try what's on your plate (even if it is a very small amount) and then eat what's on her plate. If I don't eat when she eats then when I come back the chances of it being there is very slim. I cannot blame her. I eat no more than 3 meals a day. Normally 2 and a snack. However, she on the other hand doubles that because she participates in activities that increase her want for food...yeah...

...as I turn my head to notice the sunrise omg it hurts...

Recently in the news, Taco Bell is being sued for their beef containing only 36% real beef. The Alabama law firm suing them is claiming "false advertisement" and wants no money. Here are the ingredients listed in Taco bells "taco beef":

Beef, water, isolated oat product, salt, chili pepper, onion powder, tomato powder, oats (wheat), soy lecithin, sugar, spices, maltodextrin (a polysaccharide that is absorbed as glucose), soybean oil (anti-dusting agent), garlic powder, autolyzed yeast extract, citric acid, caramel color, cocoa powder, silicon dioxide (anti-caking agent), natural flavors, yeast, modified corn starch, natural smoke flavor, salt, sodium phosphate, less than 2% of beef broth, potassium phosphate, and potassium lactate.

You may be asking yourself how this fares with the rest of the fast food chains. Well, I'm here to tell you to stop eating that crap anyway. Girls Talk TV is filming a special episode of "Living and Eating Healthy: Grassfed Beef", on February 20. If interested, visit their meetup group and RSVP to join us in learning more about the beef you eat today. And to top it off, there will be grassfed beef for sale on the premises. To your health America!
