Thanks Sans,
I have been trying to go to the gym 3 days a week since joining planet fitness on valentines day. 33 days AF, the urges come and go. Drinking alot of water helps, keeps me full with out any room for the dark fattening beers that I love to drink at whole foods. sigh bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

Tonight At planet fitness=tred mill at mostly 10%incline, 51 minutes, 2.6 miles, heart rate 120's-130, most importantly, I SWEAT!!!!!this was the hardest session yet. I held on for the most part other wise would fall flat on my face. So I know that the calories burned number is false...fun to wish but I won't even mention it anymore. It is too late to have pop corn. And I think it was too late to go to the gym, maybe not. We will see how I sleep.

I am doing billing tonight, I only got ready to bill(stamp envelopes, stamp return addresses, gather supplies,etc.) tonight I actually write out the bills and send them tomorrow.
I stopped by my friends Doris house yesterday. Visited her and she asked me what was wrong. I told her nothing. She said you are quiet. I reassured that I was fine. So she said this is what you are like calm, I agreed with her. She did all of the talking after that which was fine. I guess she has never seen me like this before. I guess this means I am stable. We are having some company over tomorrow for a shrimp boil with sausage and potatoes and corn, kale/coleslaw and strawberries. Tonight, chicken with curry sauce, half an avocado, veggie soup, I ate too much....too much chocolate for desert. 200 calories of chocolate. Need to drink a ton of water tonight so I can get a good accurate weight at my pdocs visit tomorrow morning. I am hoping to have lost 5 more pounds, in 2 months. I really thought the weight would fall off. nope it is stubborn. Doesn't help with thin mint girl scout cookies all last week and now andes mints every night this week. sigh bizi I can hardly write this...I should throw away the rest of the thin mints andes chocolates....I will do this! Left over from christmas, kept in the fridge. I will do this...i just did. __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

Good for you Bizi, throwing out the chocolates. I’d surely have to finish them off, being a chocoholic as well.
With today being the first day of spring I guess that my winter hibernation excuse is not valid any longer. I can surely say your posts are encouraging and appreciated. I pay all my bills online now, and it’s a real time saver. You might like it better too. Xo Sans |

Thanks for the compliment sans.
The bills I send are for my clients, their family members. I have a foot care company. I basically give the elderly pedicures in their homes. Have been doing this for 20 years. I did not get around to billing yesterday...I procrastinate so. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

I saw my pdoc today.
She was very happy with my report. Don't have to see her for 3 months. 17 pounds lost since november. AF since valentines day. We decided to continue the naltrexone, she thinks it is contributing to my weight loss, and controlling my urges to drink alcohol. Maybe so. I cooked up a big shrimp boil tonight for company. It turned out really good everyone said. It was nice to hear the compliments. WE had shrimp, red new potatoes, Corn on the cob, mushrooms and andoui sausage(which was spicy). Also had a kale, brussel sprouts and cabbage salad and a bowl of fresh pineapple and strawberries. I am stuffed! You have to cheat every so often, can't deprive myself all of the time. I am thinking of going to the gym.... bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

I love Low Country Boil, which is pretty much what you are describing. Good job on the weight and the AF days!

Finished billing, have to bill to get paid!!! Listened to cat stevens while working. In june we have tickets to see James Taylor and Bonnie RAtte in concert!!!!! Getting ready to go to bed.

167 this morning.
Last time I weighed this amount was may 2017. So I had put on 18.5 pounds in 10 months time. Most of that weight gain was from drinking fattening dark craft beers and the medication abilify. We increased my meds and added naltrexone and I have finally been able to control my drinking for the most part and able to diet and lose weight. What a blessing! I am working Saturday, no complaints, love my job. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

Well I survived going to whole foods for trivia night in the bar.
I drank too much cho flavored water, 3 big glasses full. It was very difficult to stay AF. One of my favorite beers was on tap, a coffee stout. I also ate too much food. WE split a cheese tray and then I had 2 grain patties with cheese and a side of salad with ceasar dressing. Ugh! At least I did not drink. I am miserably full. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

The play was greek mythology.
WE enjoyed it. I was a little bit cold but mostly warm, I should have brought a scarf! I am cold natured though and am waiting for the heat to arrive. Although it was 79 today.....The wind is what made it chilly tonight. WE ate a lot of food for dinner. Had almonds before dinner then went for char broiled oysters which were not as good as usual. Something about the cheese....I did not really like them. I complained to the waitress and wrote it up on a comment card. I had steamed veggies with crawfish ettoufe on top with melted cheese, the good kind of cheese.That was delicious! Hubby had boiled crawfish and he really like them. He shared half of a red/new potato and I dipped into his dip that he made with horseradish. IT was really good. AM trying to watch my carb intake. anyway.... I will get back to really dieting on monday. Jeff leaves on wednesday to fly to INDY to see his mom and give a talk about eddy van halen at a conference. His colleague is speaking about steely dan..... Indy had 6 inches of snow which is unheard of for almost april! Wonder if it will all melt by wednesday. It is time to think about getting ready for bed, I want to read some about refuge recovery. from a Budda mindset. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

just realized hubby will be gone 8 days!!!!
sigh I could be really disciplined and lose 2 pounds like try a fast and intermitant fasting. Maybe just try one meal a day. I don't know That sounds more reasonable and doable than a complete fast.. This also falls after easter. I gave up alcohol for lent but could try for longer.... like a dry march. Well actually april 1st is easter and that would be a dry march! My husbands best friend gave up alcohol for lent too. He does this every year to prove to himself that he is not an alcoholic. I know that I am an alcoholic/binge drinker. He has invited me over for an easter party. If I go I will take an uber there and back from my house. I may decline but I don't know at this point. Being sober feels pretty good. Like I said, jeff is gone so I could really keep up with a healthy week if I try. I am giving myself permission either way. I have not said yes to his invite. He really wants me to come. He will get s@#it faced. Do I really want to watch that? Who else will be there? I should ask him. Perhaps that will help me make a decision. I can't see drinking by myself. What is the fun in that? I am more of a social drinker, but have social anxiety. I usually drink to deal with the anxiety. But I definitely have gone to bars by myself to drink. sigh I have time to decide. Jeff gets home the thursday after easter at 11pm. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

Hi Bizi
I hear ya on that computer addiction thing. It seem like time escapes in cyberland. Maybe setting a timer and sticking to it would be an idea. You are doing so well on the weight loss. I haven't lost any weight. I know the reason is that I need to move more, and eat less. lol Springtime goals. That's a tough call on the Easter party. Sounds like you are thinking it through to come up with what's best for you! Sans |
