What's on your mind?

[Toro]

Am I the only one that feels like the media is trying to make me believe in aliens?

I keep seeing "news feed/trending" feeds on my phone with radio signals from space, "Possible alien scout probes" spotted by Hawaiian astronomers..... etc.

My mind is on my stomach... but bedtime is right around the corner.

My old pain is back in force. I missed a couple doses of my meds over the last few weeks, and am reaping the consequences. I found an essential oil roller that takes the edge of and I am trying to avoid painkillers.

Trying to figure out what do about work.

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

I've had *a lot* of frustrations with work lately, with the same repeated mismanagement of things. Do I say something to one of the higher-ups in confidence? Do I keep rolling with it, and look for another job? The other day I was so anxious and stressed about work (due to the frustration) that I was making myself sick. And the thing is - I really dig the job - I had a great shift and *nailed it* on thursday - but the mismanagement from the two highest ups is just...I don't know, something I'm having increasing difficulty getting past. I also got a new casual/on-call custodial job at a nearby Christian school, so I'm trying to figure out how that will play into things. There's stuff up in the air, and I always have difficulty with that.

As for what's on my mind right now - first three episodes of The Punisher season 2 have been excellent.

I can relate. I hoped you find some direction soon.

Day one of my five day fast is done! Didn't manage to work out tonight, but I'm hoping as I acclimate I can sneak some light workouts in.

 

[Bumble Bee]

It snowed last night. That wasn’t in the forecast for the week.

Day one of my five

FAST as in no food for five days???

I'm so sorry. That sounds tough! I wish everyone could be there own boss...would make life so much simpler than dealing with the red tape.

 

[Saricharity]

I hate writer's block!

Yes, just water and plain coffee/tea sparingly. It has really great health benefits and has the added plus of helping drop a few lbs of fat. Based on my reading only about 1-2 lbs a day of weight loss will be permanent.

I would die! I can't even skip a meal without feeling shakey.
Aren't you starving?

 

[Bumble Bee]

I did a 5 day cleanse a few years ago. I have been contemplating doing one again because I have been majorly stress eating.

 

[Dave-W]

Back in college I did a couple of 10 day fasts, water only.

My medications now do not allow for that.

 

[Bumble Bee]

I’m in the same boat. I have to have some nutrition for my medicines.

 

[Saricharity]

I can't maintain normal sodium and potassium levels, so I must watch my diet carefully if I don't want to be put on medication for it. So far, I have been able to do it with food.

Shockingly I'm not that hungry... I miss food but for the most part i haven't felt hungry and I've had a lot of energy and clarity. I'm the same as you though, if I skipped a single meal before I got dizzy and shaky. Once i got past that feeling on day 1 and just drank water when i felt that way, I realized my body was just being dramatic and I'm actually fine I even worked out last night!

Please keep me in your prayers. I've been home sick all week, and old temptations are rearing their annoying and ugly heads.
