As most of you know and for those who are new to "Susan and I", we have known each other for 10+ years, we met here on this form, and though we have never sat down and had a coffee together, we have had all those conversations that best friends would have over a morning coffee.
So I was struggling, and yesterday she told me, in the kindest of ways, to eat even though I was not hungry, not because I was in ketosis, but because I was depressed, life hit me in the face and it was upsetting, old wounds are the best description.
What did Susan say, remember to eat before you go down that old path. For me that was starve and binge. It was well after 5pm, I was not hungry but I made myself a bowl of cauliflower mash with butter and spices, and then later I did myself up a chicken breast with tumeric and cumin and butter with a side of spinach....and what happened.....my buddy reminded me to "love myself"...to "take care of myself"...and to not follow that old pattern.
That I think is the most important thing about this forum, you get to know each other, you get to know each others struggles, and we become friends who, "with the kindest" of words, say....remember, the path, I care enough about you to warn you I recognize this path please take care of yourself and be healthy, you are important.
Thank you Susan from the bottom of my heart.
