Two months today
 
That my dears is a total of sixty one days,
living the good life...
 
 
Lets go back to last week,
I had just finished writing the blog.
Mike and Beth were savaging into some sweets,
or candy, to you the the US of A....
"Ah sure" I said "I'll have one",
seriously they were tiny.
 
I swear within ten minutes I was out for the count,
I was basically in and  out of consciousness all evening.
It honestly felt like I was coming out of  anesthetic..
Id wake up, look around and "bang" out again.
So that was about 4 o clock Sunday evening,
I ended up going to bed around 10 and had a very fretful nights sleep.
 
Thankfully I was back on track by morning.
 
So I,m wondering, if I had taken more, would It have lasted longer????
I hopefully wont be finding out any time soon!!!
 
Apart from that, I am finding the GF part easy enough.
Its the low carb thing that's really beating my ass.

I haven't really been substituting gluten products for GF products,
I'm just generally eating foods that are naturally gluten free,
 and while its working for my alertness, and brain fog,
 I hear from other narcoleptic people that low carb's along with gluten free is even better results.
 
I do great for like two days then end up eating some Gf carbs!!!!
And so the circle begins again!
 
Considering I have reduced the amount of carbohydrate I'm eating, I haven't lost any more weight!!!!!
Bad times!!!
But on the other hand!
 This is the first time, in my formally bad recent memory, that my weight has been steady!!!
Good times!!!!

Especially considering I'm just two weeks off the smokes!!!!
Good times!!!
So next week I'm going to try harder with the low carbs....
Maybe I,m getting greedy, and wanting too much!
But whats wrong with dreaming....
And whats wrong with trying to make your dreams a reality!!!!
I really feel I have came so far in the last two months. 
 So lets see where else this escapade can bring me!!!!

Ho Ho HO

  1. Hi Marion,
    I'm enjoying reading your blogs, and learning a lot as well!! Can you tell me, with your cataplexy, when you first experienced it, was it mild, and it got worse over the years? Or were you falling down from the very start?? I've been told what i have is cataplexy, usually happens when I'm having a bit of craic with people, or slagging somebody, its not at the falling down stage though, I'm just wondering is this gonna get worse!!
