• I noticed again that tiredness/fatigue starts 6-8 hours after finishing the 5 loop set.
  
• I again got really really tired today and have been feeling like spending time by myself - indoors. Could have gone out and done something, but I decided to go home after work, instead.
  
• Tried to resist going to sleep by running errands, but eventually gave in about 2.5 hours before my usually bed time. Woke up a couple of times in the middle of night and eventually had about 7 hours of sleep in total.
  
  • I couldn't test after how long the effects of sub wore off as I didn't stay awake for that long. I had another thought though... for some reason ever since starting 5 loops of v2.4 I haven't been able to sleep much. I do sleep - but never for more than 3-4 hours continuously.
    
  • I'm still trying to think whether it's the increased sleep requirements of 5.5g or if it's something else. For now I'll try to go to bed early, but the fact that I'm more or less useless from a productivity perspective after in the late afternoons/evenings is bothering me a bit.

Thanks for the prompt response, Shannon. I'm looking forward to it - should be helpful with the pain associated with an accident related injury to cervical spine.

BTW, I didn't realise you read each and every post on the forum. Commendable! and I appreciate it.

Quote:As for the sub, I was extremely tired last night and was asleep as soon as I hit the mattress. As a result didn't get to listen to the sub while I was asleep. I listened to the sub during the day instead. Result: Feeling much better in the evening compared to past few days since I started 5 loops of v2.4.

My observation: Using the sub causes energy build up (is this what is called the aura?). Also, using the sub causes a lot more energy to be used up compared to resting state. In general I would have had to be awake for about 16-18 hours during the day and would have done a bit of exercise before I felt this exhausted. Since the exhaustion kicks in about 12-14 hours after waking up, I'd say the sub causes the body to use about 30-35% more energy. Since I am not doing any physical exercise these days (which means not wasting energy on anything else) I'd add another 10-15% to it. Essentially, 40-50% more energy usage in total.

Quote:I have noted that I consistently eat approximately 3-4 times as much food, and I am under the impression that I am consistently burning at least three times the calories. It is quite possible that your estimate is low because you are not accounting for the energy that was supplied by the food when considering physical exhaustion.

[quote]Surprisingly, I'm not sure if all this energy is coming from food. I have starting eating more, but I feel that I am eating more than my body is consuming. I wonder what the other source of energy could be.[

[quote]"I have concluded that 2.4 is struggling in part because it cannot extract energy from food fast enough."

I completely agree with it and it makes sense why I feel like I'm eating more, but my body is notconsuming all the food and as a result I feel exhausted/drained after 12-14 hours.

Quote:On the topic of exhaustion, what could be the reason for exhaustion? Body not being able to convert the food into energy in a timely fashion? Diet? Energy and oxygen being diverted away from brain (resulting in an 'exhausted' feeling)? Any ideas?

Quote:Anyhow, I said something of sexual nature to a girl at work - something I wouldn't normally do. Maybe autopilot? Does it mean there's a possibility of sex with her? I don't actually like her and don't find her attractive Anyway, let's see what happens.

Another observation: while listening to v2.4, I've noticed that if I am interrupted and am not able to finish the entire loop, I start feeling low on energy. I wonder what causes that.

Please explain the bold part. You mean you just cannot extract energy fast enough? Remember that the program is attempting to surge ahead and is being limited by the ability of the body to extract energy, so instead of a spike that gets held, we have a spike that drops off to what the speed limit of the digestive system is.

Hi RT!! You sound a lot happier! What Chaos wrote really struck a chord with me because I think it is true. Do think you've become numb to IOIs??

When you have a lot of time to sit around and contemplate the inner workings of your mind and life, I think that can make it more difficult. I'm going to just try and keep busy - finding more things to do!

It's certainly possible I've become numb to IOIs. Now that I think of it, our waitress last night had to come back to double check what I ordered (just me, no one else) and she got right in my ear and used her fingernails to scratch my shoulder in a very flirty kind of way. She had a pretty face and big breasts, so the aura had to hit her a bit.
