Day 1 and 2 were tough. Headaches, body aches, tired, moody, hungry. Today I wokeup with a tension headache, but as soon as I drank my first dose of lemonade I started feeling better. Yesterday I was sneezing and coughing (probably swine flu) but today it’s clearing up.

Apparently it’s been 2 years since my last successful MC? Eek, that’s way too long. I remember how proud I was about my 19 days.. I want to feel that way again.
I have previously MC’d for 10 days and 19 days. This time, my third attempt (all previous third attempts have failed) I would like to go for 20 days – longer if I’m feeling up to it. Getting through today, Day 2, is a crucial first step.
Today I feel groggy. Head is stuffy, lots of mucous. Don’t know if it’s MC related or I just picked up a cold. Either way, I’ll just let my body work itself out.
I moved to Las Vegas last year but I have met very few people. I’m not into bars and clubs, but I do like poker, movies, and outdoors. Anyone interested in these things, send me a note.
