The lower dose of clozapine has been an adventure. I'm having sleep issues (hopefully I can get some more gabapentin when I see my pdoc Monday) but the clozapine weight is suddenly coming off fast. I hope that continues. I'm 3 lbs from my next goal and that will put me at 20 lbs lost since June. Some weeks I haven't lost anything and some weeks I've gained but this last week with the lower clozapine I've lost even 1/2 lb day to day. That feels pretty good and makes dieting feel a lot better. Tonight I wore jeans 2 sizes smaller than I wore when I bought summer clothes (I've just been wearing too big clothes with a tight belt). If nothing else I'm hoping that I can show my family doctor that I've lost a lot of weight and if my glucose levels and A1C are still high maybe he'll give me a little more time before declaring me diabetic.

I need to exercise more. That's the problem with the sleep issue. I don't sleep well and then I'm exhausted which makes it hard to exercise. I assume I'll get there, especially if I can get meds to increase how much I'm sleeping.

What a process!
