Recipes and Relationships

I've had a few wins today - T minus 2 and counting - I finished the second week of my menus, and I re-connected with 'the guy'.
You'll remember that 'the guy' broke up with me because of my depression? And that's why I started looking into exactly why I had depression? And discovered that everything I suffer can be explained by my hypoglycemia? Well, we got to chatting earlier, then he invited me round, and...well... you need not have explained in detail what happened.
I'm still a little pensive - his walls were well and truly up - but so were mine, I think there needs to be a little more conversation and a little less action before we really start knocking those back down.
But hey! its a start, right?
Back to the menus - I'm sticking to a fairly strict regime to begin with - I don't want to undermine all my efforts by sneaking in some small things that might undo all the good, so I'm being pretty strict.  Calorie count of around 1300 per day, less than 30g fat, balanced proteins & complex carbs. Tomorrow is Shopping Day - where I get to buy up all the little bits and pieces of food I'll need to be able to cook so that I don't fall off the wagon.
I'm feeling very positive - I am quietly optimistic that this will work - just from previous experiences (losing a heap of weight on a low-carb diet; visiting an iridologist YEARS ago and being told that my adrenals were not working properly) it feels like its going to be the right thing to do.
Until next blog, stay happy & healthy!
