I miss mealtimes because I'm not feeling hungry so I just forget to eat. And I feel satisfied with less food. It's just weird.

I want to be cruising
Bizarrely, I'm not hungry. I thought it was maybe because I feel so sick. Maybe I'll have a worse transition because I've been veggie for so long. Who knows. I'll stick it out for fourteen days and see how it goes. I have bacon tonight (my favourite!!) so that's a BRILLIANT consolation.
I could never weigh or measure anything, either. I just looked at my list of everything I ate and then used a carb counter to check it all.

Damn, not even my freakish polyglottism will help here. Also, that book is going for 79 euros
Some of the stuff on that "Homo Optimus" website is pretty priceless
"Thus, the optimal nutrition ought to transform an individual into homo optimus, a member of the human species with yet unknown and unfulfilled potential."
So uhm . . . anybody else thinking of 'Man and Superman'????
