The Curse is Lifted!

I have my days back

I'm thrilled to share that I FINALLY found something that keeps me awake all day long without any side effects. It's THIS! Orgain Organic Nutritional Shake.

This is the first one I bought and tried.
I have no idea why it works for me. 

My guess is that my body just doesn't absorb nutrients correctly to get them to my mitochondria. So I would be totally depleted of energy by the afternoon. But when I consume a lot of them in liquid form my body can somehow use it more efficiently than by eating. 

I'm so grateful that I found this product and that it works. Now I'll be looking around to see if I can find other things that work just as well but for less. Each drink costs me between $1.90 and $2.50 depending on the flavor. I use it as a meal replacement, so it's not as bad as it sounds. But since I'm unemployed right now I want to try and save us as much as I can. I'm also curious if something like a vitamin water would work just as well or if it has to be with protein too.

At first it felt really strange to have a full day back. Like I flew to another country where their days are twice as long. Now after about two weeks of it I'm getting more adjusted. It's wonderful! I still have to be careful not to do too many things at once. 

If I spread my activity out with resting a lot in between I feel much better. If I push myself I'll end up with shaking muscles and sweaty. Then it will take about an hour for that to stop. Ugh.

I have a check in with my muscular neurologist this week where I'll let her know about it. I want to discuss my increasing pain and muscle spasms with her. 

I haven't used the CBD/THC pen at all since I discovered the drink worked even better with no side effects. One pen cartridge is the same price as 12 drinks, but it's much better for my lungs. I also never drive with the pen and I can drive a little in town normally. That's a big thing to have to give up to stay awake if I used the pen instead.

I can't tell you what a relief it is to have a big chunk of my life back. I'm so grateful that I stumbled on this product. Fingers crossed that it keeps working!


I have zero affiliation with any product I ever talk about on my blog and received no incentive to write about it.

Food Addiction

It's very hard for me to pinpoint when food became my drug of choice. It wasn't always so for me. I think it was when my son was fir...
