RIP Kris Kristofferson (who I thought had been dead for awhile already).
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose

Couch Workout Club day 60
I could not allow myself to drop a 60 day streak, so I did a 10 minute bedtime yoga video.

I went for a walk out in the sunshine today and it helped a little, and keeping busy by creating another chicken crock pot concoction from stuff in the pantry, after work. I don't feel like writing a poem today at all. Lost, your workout streak inspires me, so I am not going to let myself break an 8+ month streak of writing a poem every day just because my head isn't right. I will just write a poem about how I don't feel like writing a poem...
I'm anxious to get started on the medical weight loss program. I'm scheduled for labs & stuff this Friday, and then they'll schedule my first dr appt and prescribe whatever meds. Then I'll be working with a nutritionist too. I know meds aren't the answer to everything but I need help to at least get started. I was talking to my sister about my weight gain since I got this IUD, and she said one of her friends had the same experience after getting hers, and she is struggling to lose it too. So that was validating anyway. |

These things come in 3s my grandmother always said. I thought Pete Rose had been dead for awhile too.

I just realized something. When I got my most recent order of sertraline a couple weeks ago, there was a letter in there that the manufacturer had changed. Huh, I wonder if the new manufacturer doesn't work as well.... working for a pharmacy I should have realized this sooner!

That's entirely possible, Artie. It could have a bit less of the active ingredient (I think it needs to be within a certain percentage, but a small amount could make a difference). Also, thanks for the reminder to take the Paxil I started recently! |

I think my sibling has got some sort of trauma bond with his evil abusive wife. I do not understand it - he can say she gaslights, emasculates, criticizes, and berates him but he cannot find a way to leave. The children are grown (an earlier reason for not leaving) and all they really have is the house but he just won't leave her because she doesn't want a divorce (his words) - I have no idea what is wrong with him. I have a house he can live in rent free, he can find a job here, and our parent has offered to help him as well -but he just keeps going back to her.

That is probably the reason versus my diagnosis - that his brain doesn't work.
I am glad to hear you are continuing to prepare to leave your miserable situation. I think I just don't have his tolerance for misery. It is like several people in his life show him windows and doors and he just rejects those in favor of trying to run through a brick wall. And while I have always had at least 3-9 escape plans going at any given time - he has none.

Did my step goal twice over walking around the park and town, and then walking to my art class.

Flipper is really starting to grow on me. His style is different enough from T and yet he manages to connect to me well. We have a lot of common interests it seems, which is kind of funny. But very respecting of boundaries, yet willing to be a human and admitting it.

I'm glad you're feeling more comfortable with him, CNS.
Feeling at ease with a therapist is so important.

I'm feeling a little better this evening. I think it's because I'm officially starting the medical weight loss program tomorrow, going in for weight/measurements and labs. After that I'll have an appointment with a dr, then with the nutritionist. not sure how the mental health part of it works, but I'll find out soon. I'm ready to get started. Going it on my own has NOT been working.

Couch Workout Club day 64
An email conversation with work this morning made me miss my former boss, so I did two sets of my seated boxing workout to get the frustration out of my system. *curls up on Couch, whimpers*
