Genuinely curious how people actually know if something is working. Like, not in a philosophical way, just practically. I started eating more protein a few weeks ago, before going near any supplements, because a friend said that before anything else just sort it with food. And honestly I don't know if the slightly less awful mornings are that or just random variation or the weather changing or what. I've got a notebook but my entries are wildly inconsistent. Some days I write three paragraphs, some days nothing for a week, then I can't tell if a pattern is real or I just didn't write down the bad days. Also I've got a GP appointment coming up and I want to take a list of the supplements I'm considering, just so nothing clashes with anything. Has anyone actually done that? Did your GP know much about it or was it a bit of a blank stare? Not asking anyone to tell me what to take, genuinely just want to know how other people structure the keeping-track bit. 49 and feeling very unscientific about all of this 😩
