Hey T,

I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling down. From what I can tell, this is not your natural state. I agree with Knott, you need to treat this like an injury and if you treat it right, it will heal sooner. If you treat it wrong, you'll end up back near the beginning and will have to start all over again. So try to not fall off the wagon.

Remember too that you're body is used to some of the foods that you are avoiding right now and that may be contributing to your melancholy. So remember that this too shall pass.

And BTW, I got a letter from my friend Tam in Vernon, she said she e-mailed you back but hasn't heard form you. You really should hook up with her. I know Tam through an Acupuncture course we took together in China. She might be able to give you some advice to help you along through this.

E-MAIL TAM!!

Hugs and virtual butterflies to you.

BTW - have you ever been to that cool butterfly place at Niagra Falls? It's amazing. If you're ever there you MUST go.
