Back in the "good" mode...

I haven't posted for awhile; things have been busy with travels and getting ready for the semester to start. However, with a snow day declared today, I have time to sit in my toasty warm room and write a bit.

I broke my diet some on my travels, but for the most part, especially when skiing, I followed the plans. Avocados, beef jerky, fruits, chicken, etc - only one splurge that weekend for a sushi dinner (and even then, it was only a small splurge). However, even with those few small cheats, I could tell they had taken a toll on me. I was eating whatever I had around the house for a few days when I got back, to avoid the grocery bill syndrome, but really started to feel ill again.

Can't explain it. I wish I could explain it. I just feel awful; I'm tired, I have headaches, I can't concentrate, I am listless and I just want to crawl up in a little ball and die. I just don't ever feel good when I'm like that.

So instantly, I bought some red meat and ate it all with some green pepper. I drank a lot of water, and have been eating fruit like there's no tomorrow. I feel 80% better already.

Good find, by the way: Lara-Bars. https://www.larabar.com/secure/index_.php
