This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That would be about the point where your body runs out of natural electrolyte stores. Eating is more than calories, we constantly consume small amounts of electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, etc, all calorie-neutral things that are exceptionally vital to your body functioning right. Once those levels get wack, weird shit starts to happen.
It's why dieting is less about "stop eating" and more about "eat less but choose small amounts of very nutrient dense (NOT calorie dense) foods".
So what I am hearing is I need to drink Gatorade around day 3. Got it.
Glycogen might have run out, or ran out of amino acids/protein and consequently neurotransmitters until muscle wasting accelerates
