I recently suffered a back injury.
For the past three weeks I have been struggling with a torn trapezius muscle.
The pain is really severe. I am swollen and hurting, and It doesn’t seem to be going away! There are moments when I just about cry. I need to lay down at all times, and it helps to ice the area. Because of my injury, I am not accomplishing anything. I have had to take a great deal of time off work. Not only that, I had to cancel a flight down south, and I missed a concert I had been really looking forward to. All of my time is now spent on the couch. I only stand up for the sake of using the bathroom. I can’t even get up the stairs to my bed. When lunch and dinner times roll around, I don’t feel all that hungry. I am certainly not up to cooking for myself. I know I need to eat healthy to keep my strength up and heal quickly. I looked online to find out if something could be brought to my door. I wasn’t interested in fast food or any kind of overly rich restaurant food. I was hoping for a deli offering delivery when I came across a local meal delivery service. They offer a membership by the month. I decided to sign up and order meals online. It was the best way to get nutritious lunches and dinners delivered. They offer a wide variety of options on their menu. I can choose from dinner, lunch and breakfast items. There are sandwiches and salads plus a variety of meat, fish and pasta entrees. It is so nice that I can choose anything, including sides and dessert. I took some time picking out what I wanted to order. I was searching for mostly fruits and vegetables that my unhappy stomach could handle. I found several vegetable-type soups that sounded good. I figured soup would be simple to heat up. I don’t have a big appetite but everything is very tasty. The local meal delivery has been a life-saver.
