Blowfish kinda blows around hour 5...

I didn't for see needing to post anything more about my Blowfish experience, however, about 5 hours after I took it down... I crashed HARD. I still feel okay as far as headache, tummy, etc... except it got to the point where I could not keep my eyes open to save my life. I even wanted to close them when I got up to walk around.

I got a half cup of caffeinated coffee and a little chocolate and it seemed to even it out a bit... but man, there were a rough couple of hours.

To be fair, I should disclose that I did have carbs for breakfast... which probably didn't help the crash. Also, maybe I was too reliant on the Blowfish and should have anticipated that crash... I could have eased myself out of it. I refrained from coffee this morning because I wasn't sure what the effects would be. I didn't want to be too jittery.

I do think that it was great at keeping any head pain at bay... without needing any additional ibuprophen, tylenol, etc. Tummy felt pretty good today too. And if I wanted to use Blowfish on a weekend, I don't think the crash would be as big of an issue. I was really putting it to the test knowing I had to work at my computer all day today.

I am going to lower my rating to 3 out of 5 stars because of the hard crash. But that's not to say I won't try it again in a different scenario to see if it can redeem itself.

The Blowfish Results are in...

In short, I think I would give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

I took the two effervescent tablets with water at 6 am today... after feeling like donkey balls when I woke up. I must say that I did get some pep in my step within a half-hour of taking the meds. I never drink anything carbonated, so that took a little getting used to... but it tasted pretty good. Almost like Sprite/7-Up.

It's 8:48 am right now, and I continue to not feel sleepy or like the aforementioned donkey balls. Head feels good. Everything is going to be okay!

The only gripe I have is that it hasn't taken care of my period cramps (sorry dudes). But it's not fair to judge that, because that isn't its purpose. It would just be a nice, added bonus.

I think I agree with Dr. Wider in that I wouldn't go spending a ton of money buying this stuff. For $1 per pack for the trial, I would say it's certainly worth trying. It helped get my ass to work this morning and here I sit:

Let's do this!

I received my "free" trial of Blowfish in the mail today! (it was actually $2 to have the two doses shipped)

I am a wine-drinker. I like to drink wine on work-nights and weekends alike. I tend to drink a bottle of wine on a weeknight... totally not hard to do. :)

So... I am about to put this stuff to the test. As you may have heard through Dr. Wider, she wouldn't spend the money to get it since it's basically just a cocktail of meds you may already take or have around your house. But, for $2, I figured why not!?

Tonight I have sacrificed myself for YOU - by drinking 1.5 bottles of wine... on a work night. (cuz I would have never done that on my own...)

Don't even look at my nasty fingernails with the chipped neon pink polish. I got that from my Secret Santa. And I have a bit of an oral fixation. (oh stop it!)

I will be back tomorrow to let you know how Blowfish works for me. Man, I am crossing my fingers. Got some major work to get done tomorrow.

Until then....
