Oh....and there's nothing on TV for me either...which explains why I'm on EF @ 1:40 in the a.m.

I've been there many times. Take comfort in the knowledge that this period of insomnia will pass.
As for the hunger, give in. A little late-night snack can get the sleep cycle rolling sometimes. Stick to non-spicy foods...perhaps some cream cheese or warm brie spread onto good bread. If your tummy is grumbling, it makes sleep that much more unlikely.

I have this problem from time to time-I've found that the more I try to sleep or obsess over not sleeping, the harder it is to actually sleep. I usually just get up and go do something else-clean, screw around on the comptuer, talk a walk-something to take my mind off not being able to sleep. If that doesn't work-couple of shots and I'm good to snore

Same thing for me-some nights it works great, some nights it doesn't do anything. On those nights I take an Ambien and a Tylenol PM (just one) and it knocks me out.

I'm married & you're engaged.....so, no you can't.....
I still want to know what Gravol is.....
I've decided tonite to go off my diet due to sheer miserable-ness & I'm having wine....so there.

Hope you feel better, sweetie. I went off my diet too. Salads and PP just aren't enough for my situation.
I find it interesting that some of the ATL group are having issues w/ something (lack of sleep, you know my issue
, ulcers (Including Shadow ). Who knew that meeting aap would have this affect on us?

artrius said:What? How can we be married and engaged at the same time? Its one or the other...
or....
When did these happen?? nobody told me!
(thought both smartass comments were worth mentioning, although I bet you think otherwise...)
I thought you were now engaged?? No?? Or are you confusing me in my blonde, grumpty-pants state???
And I am married, although I'm not wearing my rings as usual.....gotta dig them out for the ATL trip....

I was trying (albeit unsuccessfully) to insinuate that you and I were the couple, not me and my fiance, you and your hubby. It was not all that funny as it was, making me explain it makes it even worse
I'll get my sense of humor sometime, I think santa might bring it for me this year....

Well, I'm even more slow tonite then I usually am.....so that could have something to do with it....
yesterday at bed time I had only eaten 1700 calories on the day.. i tried going to bed and was up until 2am!!!!!!!
I finally gave in and ate 600 cals worth of cereal.. good cereal though, organic granola with flax seed. I was asleep within minutes of hitting the sheets after that.

artrius said:i love kashi golean crunch, but it hates me... damned soy...
pancake mix + protein powder? hmmmm that's odd... does it just make it thicker?
Well you put enough water in to make it liquid enough..... I don't notice any difference with it, other than I have to use 1/2 scoop ANyWhey or the pancakes taste funny to me....little Vanilla Extract helps too...
If you want I can give you my egg pancake recipe....it's easy & good....
