20 Apr a process for healthful addictions
I am curious to see how this Ozempic experiment will unfold. Last night was not so nice, it is true. It felt like someone had switched on fluorescent lights inside my mind. There was no way I was going to be able to read (on a screen). Today is a new day, and my friend told me about how some people respond poorly to fluorescent lights. Some of us went out to comedy last night and afterwards we found a Chinese restaurant to have dinner. Asian restaurants know how to make the most delicious of food (for a good price), but they have no concept of decor in many cases. I am not so used to overhead lighting, and fluorescent is the worst. Maybe I am just one of these people who responds poorly to it.
In any case, when I woke up this morning, my first thought was that I wanted to get out and move my body. It made me wonder if I should give this medication some more time. I am certainly a lot more motivated about life generally than I was back in Jan/Feb/Mar – so maybe it will grow on me!
The other thing that is motivating me at the moment is a friend who lives close by. We are doing Salsa classes together on Sundays and talking to her about fitness generally and how to make it ‘sticky’ is adding to my appetite for more of it.
So, I am curious to observe what is going to happen with it all!
