Now, if anyone reacted badly to that comment&#8230; That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m hoping to lose weight.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve tried this method of introducing myself to a diet once before (the protein drink). Last time without ritual. I guess the ritual and the head space should be making it easier. Sadly, I&#8217;d forgotten the psychological reactions that kick in anyways.<\/p>\n<p>So, first off, I&#8217;m grumpy. I don&#8217;t have a lot of patience today. I&#8217;m doing my best not to snap at people. This is coupled with an attack of the self-image demon. That&#8217;s part of the evocation that is part of tomorrow and Thursday&#8217;s working. So today&#8217;s going to be the worst.<\/p>\n<p>Part of me <em>wants<\/em> to go thru my LJ list and IM Buddy lists and basically drop anyone who falls into the following categories:<br \/>\nPeople who don&#8217;t carry on a conversation longer than 3-5 lines.<br \/>\nPeople that I have to institute conversations with 95+% of the time.<br \/>\nPeople who&#8217;s journal I just don&#8217;t read and never comment in mine.<br \/>\nPeople who bail shortly after I talk with them.<\/p>\n<p>Again.. this is merely the &#8216;wants&#8217; of someone grumpy starting a diet.<\/p>\n<p>Cause when you start the diet&#8230;it&#8217;s hard to care or like yourself. You&#8217;re effectively torturing yourself a little. So the rest just seems worse.<\/p>\n<p>Purification at 4.8% and counting.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-584\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2003\/02\/18\/purification-of-body-3\/?share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-584\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2003\/02\/18\/purification-of-body-3\/?share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-584\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2003\/02\/18\/purification-of-body-3\/?share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2003\/02\/18\/purification-of-body-3\/?share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First off, as I was asked in AIM&#8230; Why the desire to lose weight by Saturn&#8230; Well, in all honesty, I&#8217;m planning on wearing leather pants for the character I&#8217;m portraying.
