[livejournal.com profile] snacky would be good at this.

 
Right, so. Y'all know I'm crazy, yeah? On meds and all, yadda yadda yadda.

Well, my meds are pretty much not working anymore, so I did the smart thing and added some fish oil and a nice ol' B-complex pill a few times a day. And I'm stable-er! Yay!

So, the first part of this post is advice: If you're all mood swing-y and stuff, nab some fish oil gels and some B-complex tablets. Pop pop pop!

The second part is a request for assistance: If I don't take the two with food, my stomach requests a secession from my body. Alas, I am not down with eating three meals a day, as I am only hungry enough to eat about one and a half of them.

Y'all got any fun snacky things to suggest? I don't mean boring things like peanut butter on celery sticks. Or cookies. I mean FUN things!

Ready, set, GO!!

slightly random, but always a hit in our apartment--popcorn _lightly_ dipped in sour cream.

Tortillas with cheese inside and many other things as hits your fancy. Mushrooms, salsa, marinara sauce, ground meat, salami. Use two tortillas and put the stuff inside then cut it with a pizza cutter.
