It’s been an interesting couple of days.

I woke up yesterday feeling alarming good.  I was absolutely euphoric.  I couldn’t get my mind to settle down, but I didn’t really want to either.  I was filled with mental energy, and while I was still unable to do everything I would like to physically, I was just bursting with energy.  At a certain point, I became concerned.  It’s weird to be concerned by feeling good, but it didn’t feel right either. Around 9pm, I went from hyper to sleep almost immediately and slept well through the night.

Today, I’ve felt fantastic, but a little bit like my body had gone through something.  It’s almost like I had worked out all day.  I do wonder if I was on the verge of a migraine and never quite felt it.  That could explain the euphoria and the feeling I had today.  Still, I can’t help wonder if it isn’t the changes I’ve made in the last 12 days.  I’ve been keeping my calories down, and I’ve even had trouble eating up to 1200.  I have read that fasting can lead to some feelings of euphoria as your body enters ketosis.  I don’t really know.

Regardless, I’m glad that the high of yesterday didn’t result in an extreme swing today.  I still feel great.  Not in an unsettling way, but everything feels good right now.

I do intend to discuss the plan I’m doing.  I’ll outline everything with sources soon.  I’m not embarking on a plan of my own creation.  I’ll also discuss other aspects of my diet, including my seven years of veganism, the ten years of vegetarianism that preceded it, and the years I spent as a flexitarian.  Maybe that won’t be very interesting, but I think it informs a lot of what I’m doing with my weight loss plan.
