I decided to try and clean up my diet this weekend and am not having a fun time this morning. I have found that you cannot give up things that are bad for you sometimes without actually feeling worse before you feel better.
Not a revelation for sure. But the headache I woke up with this morning! Refined sugar is a beast. And it will not go quietly.
YouTube really is quite entertaining. When I am out and about I sometimes will dial in to some comedy or a wonderful music video from the past. This morning I have been distracting my brain from the pain by looking at some old Beatles interviews. There are quite a few of them and they are fascinating. I listened to Patty Boyd talk about her amazing love life with two famous musicians. I also discovered the George was having an affair with Ringo’s wife! Who knew? What a complicated and untenable situation.
And then there is a video of Paul talking about how he met Linda.
No wonder YouTube is so popular. Hopefully it and the TubeTube will get along and have a good working relationship in the future.
Here’s the link in case anyone would like to look at it.
I have been putting a lot of videos up here lately and think I will give the blog a rest. I put together a couple of more videos and they are on my YouTube homepage here:

As you can see if you go there I become obsessed with someone and collect a lot of videos about them. First it was Jordin Sparks. Now it’s Craig Ferguson.
Women (and perhaps some guys too) put together these tribute videos of Craig. And I enjoy them for some reason. I’m trying to figure out why. The fact that they think he is sexy really doesn’t mean much.
I don’t have a gay bone in my body just for the record and stay clear of other people’s alimentary canals having enough trouble with my own. But I admire him and probably wish my life in the the thirties or forties was more like his. He is a funny guy and also had the guts to give up alcohol completely. He’s pretty honest about things as well. He talks to the audience in the introduction without a script.
Sort of like what I do when I write a post in a ruminating way.
Just like this for example.
So I think I will go take a walk and try to get rid of the remainder of this headache. I need to go take some photos for the Chamber of Commerce project and it’s no fun taking them when your head hurts.
Maybe the cool air will do some good.
And a few nasty cookies. A hair of the dog that bit me in the *ss.
So to speak.

Good Morning David!
I would say I am thrilled by your health initiative, but ultimately you are doing this for you – your body- your health and hence you have to be thrilled by it. (But I am still very happy for you
Indeed it is hard to get off of some of the foods we have become accustomed to and sugar or caffeine are probably two of the worst culprits.
Sugar acts on our brains like a drug (if I have not said that already) and hence when one is used to a high sugar diet and then tries to get off of it – it really does feel like you are going through some unpleasant withdrawals.
All I can say is this is your body telling you, I have gotten used to living with this so where is it? But try to be strong and get through this small “detox”, as our bodies are good and resilient at going back to their original balanced state without the additives that we have given them.
You will notice in time too, that your sleep will be better, mood and energy balance will be stronger and if you are interested in losing weight that tends to come off too easier when the sugar goes.
So a lovely walk this morning will indeed be wonderful!!!! Increased levels of oxygen, through deeper breathing, always make us feel better! Enjoy your day!
Evitas last blog post..November is National Health Food Month
Thank you Evita. You are so encouraging. And the walk did a lot of good. I didn’t take any good photos but sometimes that’s not important (can’t believe I just said that).
I admire you for cleaning your diet. Good luck on that. And yes, YouTube is one way of relieving those headaches. I personally watch the amazing videos of British Got Talent.
