How I Felt Today:

Felt relaxed in the morning, I think the vitamins and new foods are making a small difference in my body chemistry. I feel less vulnerable on some level. Maybe this is symptomatic of any regimen. But I do feel less acid-y in my stomach. Less nervousness. I'm definitely eating better now that I write it down after each meal... knowing that I have to face myself is incentive to make better choices in the moment.

I ate lunch at a restaurant today and I didn't feel the need to order a big, heavy pasta like I normally do. Small victories.

30-minutes Reading/Speech Comments:

Self-Rated Fluency: 6, normalish

My self-rated fluency on a scale of 1-10 (10 being fluent, 5 being my normal disfluency, 1 being my worst disfluency).

I had to talk a lot today to acquaintences and family, and though I did well, it nothing special. I have to really force myself use those difficult words these days, to see if I feel a difference, because I'm very accustomed to word substitution and I have my word favorites for all situations.

I'll be back tomorrow! Thanks for reading...
