You're talking to us as an engaged googly eyed man. Seeking marriage advice?

We're more than a bag of atoms being punched around by stimuli from the outside world. The journey worth living is not the 'ride' presented to us by the above string of stimuli -- it's the journey of discovering who/what we really are.
And yes, love has probably a lot to do with it, but not the addictive type. Any addiction (attachment) is probably not helpful on this journey.
I feel this thread is epic enough already (only on RL!) and don't want to risk spoiling it by going too far off the beaten path. Thx mooty!

Have you consulted a doctor about your diet and any side effects you may be experiencing?
Loss of memory?
Confusion?
Suicidal thoughts?
Harming yourself or others?
Loss of sleep?
Wandering streets with no destination in mind?

It appears I am an outcast for yet one more reason: diet/exercise.
I eat all the sugar, carbs, and processed food I can get my hands on, mostly because it's yummy and I work all the time.
I rarely exercise, because of the whole job thing per above.
I eat Mooty's diet, but rather than cycle 884839898982349898523.12 miles each day, I work. I do walk to get the mail each day and I have the strongest mouse finger.
