whew

mellow weekend and still i am the groggy that says in ominent spooky voice "stay home, sleep and watch movies, stay home" but I am at work

The Castro Street Fari was a lot of work to get people all silly and happy but it was pretty fun. My lingering tired made it more work to have the fun, but that's ok. Wonderful chicken noodle soup from Citrus Club, watching sunset blvd, drinking chocolate mint tea sweetened with fresh harvested honey - that was pretty amazing, and then heading off to K'vetch with

final_girl  and drinking much caffeine was a good good time

 

today I still feel muddy, but not quite as depressed as I have been which is good. The $$ worries are there, but when aren't they really. I am starting to wonder if my diet is affecting me in this bad bad way - am i becoming vitamin deficient and thus the tired tired tired.

For those who don't know - I do the atkins thing. Have been doing it for almost 2 years. and yes you are supposed to take vitamin supplements, and no I do not take them. sheer laziness. Adding insult to injury at this point is I have moved away from a plateau (which made me cramky) and while I have been so tried and lethargic, have gained a few pounds. Nothing to get all weird over, and yet, I get weird still. Weight has always been a thing for me - since mom had me diet along with her at age 7, yes folks, seven - my ideas about food and weight have just been out of whack. This atkins thing was the first to get me a bit sane about it, but now I am thinking that mutritionally I have to do some modifying because I feel too tired to even go for a walk, and no one loses any kind of weight without activity. I have 50lbs to go to hit my ideal. About 30 to hit my realistic goal. and I am not sure how to turn things around so that I can eat fruit and other vitamin necessary things, and still keep heading down on the scale. (a side note, I do eat veggies and am fairly balanced for the most part - I don't do the pound of bacon for breakfast version of atkins that the horror stories abound about)

Anyway - I feel like somethings got to give and I am not sure where to start fixing things... Is it as simple as vitamins? Will I go and get a shot of wheatgrass later and realize that that is the solution...AGAIN. sigh. I just cannot stand feeling this tired and lethargic

nope

me no likey
