Can We Say No to Migraine?

Friends always complain of migraine. It seems that some are even not functioning fully whenever they don’t take their meds, self-prescribed or not, and are always on the lookout for migraine headache treatment. There are even times when they say they woke up with a migraine.

Me? I don’t know if I have migraine or not but I do get headaches too, especially when I am thinking of some problems or when I have spent several hours in front of the screen or when I am hungry. There are sometimes combination that give me a headache but not enough to render me incapacitated.

So, what are a few ways to avoid migraine?

For the Record, I’m Not…

I was asked last night if I am pregnant. Ugh. For the record. I am NOT.

It is as if I could hear a chant saying: fat burners! fat burners!

Am I hurt? Of course I am but then again, if I have been more conscious not only about my looks but also about how much I eat (not too much really) and WHAT I eat then I wouldn’t be asked that question.

It doesn’t help that I eat when I am a bit stressed. And watching something. And reading a book. 😀

Rainy Days Are Here

The nights are colder now and rarely do I hear the complaint “it’s hot” from people.The rains, torrential and like cats and dogs most of the time, just when the children are on their way home from school, are at times too much to handle.

To those living in higher altitude, I guess it is time to bring out those heated mattress pads. For us who are in the lowlands, we minimize the use of electrical appliances that make the rooms cool since there is a lot of cool air circulating around.

Every afternoon, strong rains beat down on us. A lot of people are getting sick because from morning till mid-afternoon the sun is shining so brightly but the rains come down from mid-afternoon till evening.

How can one prepare for the rainy days to avoid getting sick?

  1. Take plenty of vit c love, be these in tablet form or from fresh sources.
  2. Get enough sleep and eat the right kind of food.
  3. Bring your umbrella and/or raincoat and/or rain gear every time you step out of your house.
  4. Rest if you fell unwell.
  5. Consult a doctor for persistent cough, flu, fever and/or runny nose.

Free Food

Who doesn’t like free food? And FREE goody bags?

steak

I’m guessing even if someone is taking appetite suppressants the idea of free food is something that is difficult to pass on. It is not the calories but the idea that this is free that is the bait 😀

Choose Your Drink

So many drinks to choose from! What do you think you will buy to open and quench your thirst?

drinks

I’d get an ice-cold can of soda anytime but I am trying very hard to stop drinking these to avoid more weight gain. I am usually out when I see these things and with the scorching weather, I’d want to have headache relief from the heat, I’d probably settle for a bottle of water or Gatorade.

I sure hope these two are the most logical choices.
