Energised!

Shew! What a day today has been! After ahhing and umming and toying with my thoughts last night, I decided to try a dosage of 30mg Duromine. Took the capsule at 6am and I was fine for the next two hours, had a cup of green tea and then my appetite vanished***shock*** Never in my life, except when I was sick or in mourning, have I lost the desire to eat! ***double shock***.

I literally had to force myself to have breakfast to ensure that I had sustenance in my system. Drove to work and I was feeling euphoric, somewhat energised, and extra alert. By 9.30am I was like Speedy Gonzalves and the Duracell Bunny combined....I needed to get things done and out of the way, conversations that I don't normally hold with colleagues extended to beyond their normal durations, my creativity was at it's peak and still no hunger! The day progressed with me having 3 cups of green tea and 1500ml of bottled water until lunch. I still wasn't hungry but forced myself to have a meal of soya and veggies, again to sustain myself. Got home at 6pm, still no hunger, and hubby had grilled me a chicken leg portion and steamed veggies which I literally forced myself to have now (making my before 7pm dinner deadline) and I'm physically stuffed.

I ran around with the kids playing cricket just now and I still feel like I could run a mile! The euphoria and energy is still there and i'm hoping that my sleep patterns (sleep deprivation an a-typical side effect of Duromine) are normal tonight.

Can I see myself doing the same tomorrow morning?....I should hope so. I need to monitor myself carefully though and record my feelings and moods so that I have an accurate record of how this is actually affecting me, if at all...

Tomorrow is another experimental day that I can only hope will yield good things.
