Today was the most difficult day for me thus far. I underestimated the strength of large social situations, specifically involving large birthday groups and clubs. In order to accommodate the outing, I split the last shake of the day into 2 half servings, which turned out well, even though about 6.5 hours elapsed between. I suppose the constant water-drinking curbed any feelings of hunger. Although the temptation to have one or two drinks, just to loosen up, was extremely high tonight, I’m very proud of myself in retrospect. I know that any concession, however moderate, would have left me with remorse afterwards. Remaining sober also gave me a new insight into the nature of drunkenness. It’s amazing how much more you understand the real nature of it when you soberly observe.
Beforehand, I was 99% certain that I wasn’t attending, since I was in a sleep deficit already, and not to mention the diet itself. I also had to work the next morning, so it would have conflicted with both my sleep, diet, and work. At the last moment, however, I decided to go on emotion instead. It probably wasn’t the most logical decision, but in the end, I remained integrated while still being able to show my respect to a good friend.
Last night I was able to get 6 hours of sleep at the expense of my morning NEPA walk. Instead I performed it this evening, which is better than nothing. Shakes and supplements were routine, aside from the splitting of the last shake. Looking forward to the rest of Week 3.
