dysfunctional attitude towards food
@cassolotl@dev.glitch.social basically I need to have a certain amount of protein--around a cup, don't know what that would translate to in real measurements XD --about every six hours that I'm awake, or I start getting tired, headachy, and increasingly disoriented. if I'm doing any physical exercising, I need more protein, and usually sooner.
dysfunctional attitude towards food
@cassolotl@dev.glitch.social if I don't, it's really easy for me not to notice--I just get tired and headachy, until I realize I'm at the point where I can hardly think coherently enough to make myself some scrambled eggs or put something in the microwave. I usually keep some beef jerky on hand in case of emergencies like that. :|
dysfunctional attitude towards food
@cassolotl@dev.glitch.social it's weird and scary and I haven't been able to get any doctor to take it seriously or help me figure out what's going on. it's definitely not a blood sugar thing; I've had my blood sugar tested while having a protein crash and it's been absolutely normal, so doctors say "oh it's not diabetes" and shrug it off. UGH

@cassolotl@dev.glitch.social and if I"m crashing sugar DOES NOT HELP, in fat it makes things worse. I just need a piece of meat or a hard-boiled egg or something, and I'm fine. XD
