4)re-start caffeine after landing, BUTT moderately
5)push to normalize sleeping pattern, try to stay up until 11PM

I forgot to mention that the 15 hours is just one stretch. My current total flight is between 27 to 35 hours depending on flight availability.

That only protein and veggies seem to go along with the gluten free. Fad or not, I am all for what works.

Hmmmm, I do need all the carbs from the starch and desserts to counter all the booze though....I mean talking about getting the best bang for your buck! Keep the wine and baileys going
