This last week has been extremely difficult for me. I got a cold and felt so bad that I thought it was the flu, but it was in fact the medication I was on that was making me feel very bad. I felt very groggy, extremely tired (in fact slept most of the time), depressed and broke into cold sweat by the lightest physical activity. I didnt go to work the whole week, I felt so bad and tired. I didnt even have the energy to go online, let alone write anything. I was so groggy that I couldnt follow a conversation. When I was in the kitchen I didnt close the cupboards after me, and didnt even notice that. Then yesterday I made the decision in my groggy mind that this medication (Orfiril, it was supposed to be a medication to use instead of two other mental-medications) was making me much more sicker then I would be without it, so I stopped taking it, and voilá I woke up this morning, feeling very fresh and energetic. Went to work and feel great.

When I felt so bad I didnt follow my food-program. It was simply so difficult to follow the food-program, and my depressive state made me crave all the wrong food. Well it was a slip that shows that when I am depressed I get cravings and when I feel good I can follow my food-program, simple as that. So now its just a question to keep myself in the mental state that will make me follow the food program. I followed my food-plan today, and it felt so easy because I wasnt so groggy and tired as before, so I am sure I will continue to follow it as before.

Thanks for caring about me, and be sure I am fine now, and I am up for the next round of my weight loss process.
