That is certainly not to say your remission will end, but be prepared. It is all in the interpretation. When real life sets in, and the "high" feels less so, don't go interpreting it as a backslide.

thats the beauty of it-its NOT a "high"! i feel more normal damn bloody old NORMAL than i ever thought i could. i always envied the pants off of these all-too-healthy types that did what needed to be done when/if/how/why it needed to be done rather than indulging in terminal gluteal spread avec pork rinds. now i are a version of these healthy types-a. sure there's loads of novelty-like the fact that i'm filing a formal complaint against my cretinous next door neighbor who tortures his dog by leaving it penned up all day. the dog is nicer than the people who own it but i'll be damned if i'm going to put up with the CONSTANT noise! this is something i checked out before i moved. i'm DETERMINED to make any and all possible adjustments so that coloraddy becomes the dream i always had of it.
just today i aired up my tires and went on a 15 mile spin down roads i've never seen before. one was from the moon judging from the amount of craterage. in the LAND OF NOTHING (mizzery) i had to pack all my stuff and drive an hour before i could ride. here i JUST RIDE!!!SUCH A DEAL!!! and i get out in the middle of nowhere toot sweet!! once again, this is NOT a "high" it's a well-thought out out (out out? what is this out-out??) attempt at a radical improvement in lifestyle.
