possibly not meeting a goal

I hate admitting defeat, even if I'm insisting on calling it only "possible" defeat. [/cryptic]

On the "healthy eating" front, I haven't had any sugar in about 72 hours and I feel very, very strange.  Dopesick, maybe.  It's not entirely unpleasant.  At least not until I remind myself of the defeat (see above).

I need reassurance of a global, generalized, hug-free nature if you have any to spare.

Rage against the dying of the light or defeat or whatever.

As for the diet, hmmm. I know it's low carb and not no carb, but do you think it's just your seratonin levels adjusting? Maybe if you give it one more day or the weekend, to see if it levels out.

Well, many days later, and I'm still tired. I've also now lost ~15 lb. while sleeping, which makes it pretty obvious there was something very wrong with the way I was eating before. I'm on TWO antidepressants that already mess with my serotonin levels, so I'm not certain whether that makes this better or worse. Given my reaction, I'm thinking "worse."

Of the good: I want blueberries and a nectarine, not candy. Of the bad: I am still too stupid to write.
