Not sure if it's the cloudy, rainy, snowy weather we'd had in the past few days, or the lack of taking my good vitamins, or eating too much white flour & carbs this week, or the lack of meaningful conversation, but I've had a string of Eeyore days this week. I've been sleepy, depressed and isolating myself. Today was sunny and warm but I'm still not chipped up. I probably need to go pick up a new bottle of my mega-vitamins and just eat vegies for a day. White flour bread, baked goods, sugar and pasta really dopes me up. And I've had a bit more of this stuff this week than I usually do. Last fall I had three donuts after church and I couldn't wake up or even get off the couch for the whole day. By the evening I was in complete despair. Since then, I usually steer clear of baked goods with sugar. Please pray for me that I have the good sense and self-discipline to do the things that I know are healthy for me in these next 48 hours. I know this will pass if I make the right choices; but when I'm feeling this way it's very easy to just allow myself to slip into the pit.

Kathie, Have you ever been checked for gluten intolerance? I have and am, so I steer clear of white bread (almost any bread, in fact) and eat lots of fruits and vegetables. That way I can not feel down in the dumps. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the input. I haven't been tested for that but I do know I feel significantly better in every way when I'm eating mostly fruits and vegies and not much carbs. I'll put that on my list for my next doc appointment.
