a good diet strategy?

Monday night, I went to sleep after taking a medication for muscle spasms because my neck was very tight. Instead, I woke up at 4:45AM Tuesday with a much relaxed neck, but VERY tight facial muscles on my "bad" side. I woke up on that side, but still don't know what caused that to happen. I knew I was in trouble when I could barely open my mouth to speak (gee, eating is going to be interesting).

Called in sick, took a bunch of relaxants, and tried to rest. By the afternoon, I was able to eat something other than yogurt, but it was painful. Icing it helped a bit more, and now I'm a bit more "normal".

Then I woke up this AM, to find the same tight muscles on the OTHER side of my face (though not as bad). I wish I knew what was going on here. I know I sleep with my mouth open, and have tried to stop that, without much success. *sigh*

So it's more yogurt and other soft foods today. I guess that's one way to keep from eating too much.
