DMSI V2.3

[Duke.Togo]

I'm on Day 4 today of the sub, and will give a detailed report later today - what I have found today however, with regards to food is that, while I am still hungry - it's not as bad as yesterday. The food addiction is tapering down a bit more.

I had the same concerns by evening time last night, regarding food addiction. I normally don't eat that much - primarily two meals a day (I have for a long time done the 16/8 fast).

My workouts have been also somewhat affected, but I believe that had more to do with the sleep patterns, as I was too tired physically to push myself.

I'll have a better idea of things by next week, and can provide you with a more detailed feedback of how I feel, sleep, and what my eating schedule becomes.

But all in all, I really like this sub. It's making me more mentally aware - logical, I'd say even clinical. The emotional aspects are dying down a bit which I like.

How is E2 working for you in general - from who you were before you started to who you have become now? What do you feel is the biggest change that has occurred?

I do the same with IF, so mainly like 2 meals a day. But I eat a little bit through the day like a protein bar or yoghurt.

Hmm, I know my workouts are affected now i'm eating less but tiredness definately does make a big difference.

Well, E2 is very subtle. For atleast a month I was swearing nothing was happening and some of the things feel more natural but I can only attribute it to E2.

Though it's subtle it seems to be making good progress on things that I wasn't before. The most obvious is self expression and finally saying things i've really wanted to say and haven't. AM did some of that but not like this.

It's funny now that you say that it's hard to tell you. But it's done a fair bit. The other thing is a definite lessening in guilt, shame and fear. Those were big things, aswell as trauma holding me back from the full expression of AM and WM.

It's interesting that you mention the changes in E2 were subtle. With DMSI v2.3, I can basically feel the change occurring and at the same time, I can't really recall who I was prior to the change.

It almost does a cleanse - actually, eradication of sorts and replaces it with something new. I think that's why a lot of the people who have been doing this sub have had such polarizing experiences in terms of what they thought the sub would do versus what happened over the first few days.

I also need to backtrack on the food comment. I was holding down on the food, but, this sub zaps you of everything to the point where you have to constantly eat more. I felt so drained a few hours back and once I started putting the food in, it helped.

I'll weigh myself tomorrow morning to see how the weight is looking. I'll be surprised if I lost any more weight.

As I'm close to the end of my day now, I gotta tell you that several other emotions popped up. Namely, that I am getting some resistance to the sub and I almost feel like quitting. I won't of course, I am going to power through this. But this sub does take its toll. In a way that nothing else I have ever experienced before does.
