Thank you beth appreciate your support!
Down to 192, stopped at 3 partak beers and switched to gum. Though I think I will run to the wine store to see if they have more partak beers. I might go to the gym and ride on the bike to start to improve my thigh muscles. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

Saw 4 clients today, had a shrimp salad for lunch and left over chicken thighs for dinner. well it was a successful day..
Found the envelopes that I needed for billing with out asking for help, at the store. Drove to total wine to get more partak. Got a 6 pack of dark and one of IPA. If I stick to 3 a night then that will last me into the next week tuesday. Came home to put things away then decided that I would go to planet fitness and ride the bike on high resistance level 20 I could only do 5 minutes into it for my thighs gave out on me. But that is what I wanted, to build up strength in my thigh muscles. They are so weak. Then went to the tread mill and called my brother in law. (to talk and walk). I ended up walking about 30 minutes including a cool down. 1.3 miles. They close early on friday nights at 9pm saturday and sunday they close at 7pm Monday thru thursday until 10pm It is a start. I was hot coming home so got into my nite dress and am drinking a diet ginger beer with a kick! The computer stop working so I looked at the power strip and one of the cords was unplugged. so plugged it back in and the computer is back in business. Love it when things work out, I am not computer savvy. I took a shower this morning and washed my hair!!!! Jeff had practice for an up and coming performance with the faculty jazz band. They play during jazz week, next week. He is out with a friend, paul for a quick beer, after rehearsal. I work tomorrow. I think I have 3 clients. Jeff has 2 gigs this weekend, one is tomorrow from 630pm til 930pm at an upscale restaurant called ruffinos then sunday he is playing for brunch at a restaurant called Bon Temps or something like that, from 11-2pm. That interferes with our brunch at the diner, maybe I will just go with out him. This is my 12th night with out alcohol and I am down about 9 pounds in 2 months.. better quit as no one wants to read a journal. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

Well I came home from work after voting. and drank all 3 partaks NA beer.in an hour and a half.I want to have another one but that would go against my 3 limit.
So I switched it up to a zevia creamy root beer that is sweetened with stevia (sweeter from a plant) so no calories there and chewing gum. I had 12 ounces of chicken chilli that I made a few nights ago. It was still good.My eating time is almost up Intermittent fasting. I eat during an 8 hour window then fast the rest of 16 hours. That means no breakfast that is normal for me. no snacking which is difficult to do cause Jeff snacks.but I am determined to lose weight.and remain AF as well. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

today jeff had a gig at a restaurant, Bon temps.
I came and had Brunch there. It was a delicious grilled shrimp salad that had the thickest bacon more like chunks of pork. There was already some kind of dressing a lite maybe just bacon fat. So I did not use any of the dressing that it came with on the side... They had virgin bloody marys on sale $3.00 a drink so I ended up having 3. no alcohol at brunch! a victory!It was an expensive brunch but I wanted to support Jeff and the guys. they laughed at me for leaving during jeffs solo, gave jeff a hard time about it. He said he was used to that. now I feel badly about that. At least I came. $including tip brunch total was $31 dollars ouch! doing laundry now, thinking about doing some more billing before it gets to be too many. I have 25 bills to send for the first 2 weeks in november. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

You've had great success with refraining from alcohol lately! That sure is something to be proud of, bizi. I'm even proud for you!

thank you for your support!
I finished the billing!!!! had 3 NA"beers"Then asked my husband if I switched to heinekin 0.0 no alcohol at all but 69 calories. he said that would be fine. before 7;30 the witching hour. I went to the store to pick up some more partake dark and ipa. so I am all prepared for the week. Went to the grocery store to pick up kitty litter (which was 20 pounds and heavy!) and montreal steak seasoning, lime juice, and parmesan cheese. So it was after 730pm when I got home, so I missed my opportunity to have another "beer". so that is good I am able to stick to my limits. The exlax certainly did its thing I feel so much better. Talked to my twin she called and we got caught up. She is hosting thanks giving this year and mom and dad are coming down. They are going to their time share in march. So she is trying to be normal. After you fall and break your back I think she is thankful that she is alive. It was a good conversation with Gretchen. (My twin) I am going to get ready for bed and watch an episode of seinfeld before hitting the hay. thanks for reading along. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

took a shower and washed my hair today.
Do you know that I have an aversion to showering. I have to force myself to take a shower. Some times it is a week, usually it is when My hair needs washing about 5 days. Good news today the scale said a 10 pound weight loss in 2 months. I should look and see how much I have lost since the 1st of november: 7 pounds in 16 days. I have been eating a ton of salads.tonight for dinner we had pork chops and mixed carrots and corn and soy beans (edemami) all starchy veggies so I only ate half of them. I only chewed on my pork chop bone and not jeffs too. That is the first time in a while that I have done those 2 things. I am a little peckish, usually when I chew gum that takes care of the urge to eat after dinner. This I will make me some sleepy time tea. As it is getting to be late but I don't want to drink too much liquids, don't want to have to get up all night to pee. 16days Alcohol free. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

one thing I have noticed with the partake beers is that I get a runny nose drinking them.
I will take it. I love them and have made it so easy to not drink. I drank 3 beers in 1 +1/2 hours. then the faculty jazz concert is tonight, it is in the freezing choral room. I am better prepared for this concert though I am kind of sweating right now... I had a salad for lunch, was supposed to be curry chicken salad, but the chicken was so dry I did not eat it. For dinner tonight I had tomato basil soup, it was very tasty and filling. I did have a handful of pecans which were quite tasty indeed. getting ready to go to the concert. Will chew some chewing gum.They were light meals today see how hungry I get later on. have a nice night every one thanks for reading my post/blog. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

yes this time is different.I really look forward to my 3 "beers" coming home, they are my new addiction but that is ok. It keeps me from feeling deprived.
We are going to a blue gras concert tonight! can't wait. Jeffs band played last night, I thought he soloed well and played great and told him so he said he was happy how he came out which is unusual,normally he would pick apart his playing. Nice to hear him being positive about his playing. have to get ready for work. bizi who is always running behind in the morning. __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

190.1
had a big lunch, a bowl of cabbage with olive mixture. a big bowl of chicken and sausage gumbo. it was chock full of meat so was delicious. I am getting ready for my hair appointment to get a touch up of color on my roots. I enter an alcohol experiment. it is a month worth of coaching free by annie grace the author of the book the naked mind.It is about learning to take better care of myself and learn new pathways to better and more effortless abstinence from drinking alcohol(poison). I am on day 2even though I have 19 days down already I think I can benefit from this program and it would fit into my drinking patterns. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

I stopped by fat pats today around 3;30. stayed until 4;30.
Had diet dr. pepper I had 3 of them. and an egg sandwich which was delicious. Their buns are to die for they are super sweet. They grilled them for me. I used mayo so was not the most healthy of sandwiches. Got home around 5pm jeff was wanting left overs. I was not hungry so had left over meat loaf and green beans and fruit. We both had a fabulous cherry pie a friend brought over because we did not go with them to Susy and Nells dinner. We already were invited from last year so we could not back out. Sue made the cherry pie and we know they are leaving the area and are moving back to california. So this would be the last thanksgiving here. Sues husband Mark was hired to start a traditional music program. He did a good job. They will do a national search to replace him. Susy makes a green gumbo she calls it from the left over turkey and boils the carcass to get all of the bits of turkey to make a broth for the green gumbo. She makes it with a lot of leafy veggies and usually adds some sausage. to it. It is delicious! We are going to reach out to her to see if we can come even though we did not make their thanksgiving this year. I hope this made sense. I am on a sugar high from pie. blessings to those that need them. bizi __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |

Thanksgiving turned out fine. marycatherine(will call her MC)
brought everything over, I don't think Paul cooked anything. MC cooked things gluten free, So we almost had 2 of everything. You had to be sure you knew which was which. and to not switch serving spoons. paul was pretty quiet. he had borrowed 2 large folding tables and some chairs so that all 9 of us could eat together. MC cooked the turkey at home and just reheated it again at pauls. there was gluten free: gravy rolls crackers, stuffing, pies. I did not over eat. my weight was 188.8 this morning. Jeff is at the foot ball game with paul. They took an uber there from pauls house. they like to walk in with the band ( it is very exciting to to be right there on the field when the players run out). and sit with the band. It is raining right now jeff brought a rain coat and has long underwear on with multiple layers it is in the 50's.Very gloomy. I will go out and buy a chilis gift card because Jills birthday is the 7th of december. jeff said he would call me to pick them up after the game. so I had better go and get the gift card and see if they have any more partakes. bizi thanks for reading beth! __________________ 150mg of lamictal 2x a day haldol 5mg 2x a day 1mg of cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, 4-5 peri-colace for chronic constipation multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine at noon PRN Remeron 15mg at night, zyprexa10mg under tongue, requip2mg. |
