yup. i could go on about half as much food as normal. my sugar tolerance is very low because i hardly ever eat sweets and if i do, it's like a cookie from the bakery or something like that, usually in halves. i've been gnawing through fruit like there's no tomorrow.
i used to be a huge meat eater. now, i can take it or leave it. not vegetarian by any means, i love me some meat, but i just don't crave it nearly as much as i did before. i eat a lot of pasta now cuz it's plain and simple and easy.
i only drink water and chocolate soy milk (i love choc milk but my tummy don't). i drink at least a gallon of water a day.
it would seem as though it could be some kind of preparation but to me, it feels more like a purification. it's not just diet. it's everything. unhealthy habits. thought patterns. communication. diet....they all seem to be "cleaning up", so to speak. getting more pure and more simple. i feel like some kind of new age monk or something. i feel like i'm being called away from impurities in as many ways as possible. i'm not claiming to be buddha or some great holy man, either...i just feel a conviction to purify and simplify in as many ways as possible.
as you said, it seems to be coming in stages. it's just small steps forward everyday and every once in a awhile, you get a fire under your bottom to push off in a new direction.
but yeah...it could be preparation, could be purification, could be both and seen as either way. we'll find out one day, maybe...

I can only leave you with one piece of advice - you don't have to lie, or even hide the truth, to be tactful. In fact, it goes against everyone's best interest if you hide your true feelings to make someone feel better. Just make sure you express your true feelings without causing unintended harm.

yeah...communication is one of the big ones i've been seeing. the way i'm talking to people is morphing right before my eyes.

Almost eh? Well, I guess we will have to shine more brilliantly to melt that ice thoroughly.
