Hi Maria!
I just wanted to say that I am so with you, girl!

It looks like we started the diet about the same time, so we should really cheer each other on with figuring it all out, which I'm definitely still doing. It also seems like you've been much better at both staying on the diet (never ask "What could just one Girl Scout Cookie possibly do?" cause it can do a lot!), and also reaping the rewards of being more stable. I'm a little jelous! (just kidding )

But I know what you exactly how you feel after your "setback". I was so bummed and frustrated when I had a D attack after a few days of feeling great. But then I had to step back and remind myself that I'm doing SO MUCH BETTER that I was before I started the diet. And if I could deal with it for years before, I can deal with for a day or two now.

I'm having a really bad week right now. I had my truck stolen two weeks ago

, but then it was found

, but then I had to deal with a really frustrating insurance lady, so I was supper stressed and angry on Monday, and haven't been right since.

I think I'll go back on the "Breaking the Cycle", too. I was trying to avoid it (cause it's a bit boring...) But you've inspired me! It's what's best for my body, I know.

Thanks for your post. It really made me feel like I'm not alone.

Cheers,
Myra
