true to form, just got back from business travel halfway across the world, and brought my 2 cans of DC with me. Worst part is I feel so stupid. People who don’t “get” DC look at me like I’m an idiot. But here I am a year later… maybe a bit more ready to make this change than before. I am always bloated, and it definitely affect my food choices. (sigh) wish me luck – again.

Have fallen off the mediation wagon, but practiced faithfully for a few years, and also took multiple courses. I highly recommend the book “Buddhism Without Belief” if you are less inclined toward the “divine” aspects of religion, but still feel Buddhism resonates with you. Sending mettha to you all with this goal.

woke up this morning at 4:30 with one of the worst headaches I can recall. Took about a half hour to remember that I had only a CAFFEINE free DC with dinner last night. Serves me right. After swallowing three Advil and shuffling down to the fridge, I guzzled a can of DC. I guess I will have to disabuse myself of the idea of “cold turkey”.
