Friday Update

April 30, 2010

TGIF!
I’ve been kind of taking a break from the internet this week. Still sober, still doing good, but just haven’t felt like updating here or anywhere else for that matter. PMS has been really hard on me this month too.
I’m also starting on a very strict diet for the next couple of weeks [...]

Quick Sunday Update

April 25, 2010

I had an absolutely amazing time last night… I haven’t laughed so much or so hard in so long! It was one of those nights that I won’t forget for a very long time. It truly was an evening filled with joy, love, laughter and fellowship. I was out until almost 2am [...]

Saturday Update

April 24, 2010

Yesterday’s hypnosis & therapy session ended up lasting over 2 hours! And oh. my. goodness.
I was finally (with help) able to put the pieces of all my past live regression sessions together along with the memories and issues that have come up under hypnosis from this life. It all fits together like [...]

TGIF, Benzos and Weight

April 23, 2010

Thank GOD it’s Friday!
This will be a quick post, as I’m off to do a PLR/hypnosis session with my therapist in a few minutes.
I got on the scale this morning and it tells me that – despite the fact that my clothing is literally falling off me, and despite the fact that I [...]

Wednesday Update

April 21, 2010

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
I’m tired. Apparently I need to get some more nutrition in me.
I’ve been doing a little trick (that’s working) to make sure that I don’t gain any weight, plus (hopefully) continue losing now that my appetite has come roaring back: I don’t eat past 4 or 5pm. I have decided I can eat [...]

Quick Tuesday Update

April 20, 2010

Well I found the juice fast impossible. I’m just too damn hungry to fast. I’m craving major carbs, protein and fat right now anyway, so apparently my body needs them. (Of course, if my body craved sugary junk food, I could probably rationalize that it needed that, too, so who the heck [...]

Blood Pressure Update

April 20, 2010

Well the blood pressure update isn’t the best of news. I was off my anxiety/bp meds for approx. 46 hours, had just done a very calming meditation/hypnosis with my therapist, then went to take my blood pressure at Walmart.
The first reading was 141/90.
The second reading – after sitting there calmly and taking a [...]

Monday Update

April 19, 2010

I’m doing a lot better! No longer depressed. Thankfully that passed the very night that I typed up that post. Went to a meeting, spilled my guts and got lots of support. Since then I’ve been pretty cheerful for the most part!
I’ve been back in one of those ‘not in the [...]

Wacky Thursday Update

April 15, 2010

I must be suffering from some sort of depression, although truth be told I don’t feel depressed emotionally at all.
But all I want to do is sleep.
I don’t want to eat anything. At all.
I have been in a ‘manic’ mood for the past hour. I just got rid of every last alcohol type [...]

Quick Wednesday Update

April 14, 2010

How funny, after complaining that the scale hasn’t moved in a while, I got on this morning and it’s suddenly down 2.3 pounds overnight! Niiiiiice.
Probably has something to do with the fact that I seem to have lost all interest in food lately. Not that it bothers me, I go through phases all [...]

Feeling Better

April 13, 2010

I’m feeling about 88% better! My head cold is almost sorta-kinda gone. I’ve been mostly free from pain – body, head, sinus – for the most part – for a couple of days now. I’ve only blown my nose about 15 times today instead of the 80+ times I blew it yesterday [...]

Owwwwwwwwwww

April 11, 2010

Seriously, I am not going to update this blog again until I am free from pain. (I hate complaining now!!) The pain from this head cold has been unbearable, my body apparently forgot (through my drinking and recent bouts of narcotic painkillers for sinus infections and dental work) how to produce its own endorphins [...]

I Have A Head Cold & Saturday Update

April 11, 2010

So it’s official… I have some kind of bad head cold. No wonder I’ve been aching and feeling like crap the past couple days.
Although yesterday (Saturday) started fabulously!! It was a gorgeous sunny warm morning. I got up around 8:30am or so, had an apple and protein shake for breakfast, [...]

Yet Another Friday Update

April 9, 2010

My ’spartan’ diet is failing. I am having trouble staying disciplined for some reason! Arghghghghghg. It’s 5pm and I’ve had about 1125 calories. That in itself isn’t bad at all but I’m still hungry and craving sugar like crazy. Grrrr. And I’ve eaten salty crap today too.
Sigh. Oh [...]

Another Friday Update

April 9, 2010

I’m on a roll today…
Remember I talked about a rice-protein shake thing that I was planning to start drinking on a near-daily basis in order to make sure I got enough protein since going back to my vegetarian diet? This stuff?

I forgot to mention that it’s absolutely horrifically disgusting. I literally had to [...]

Friday Update

April 9, 2010

Good morning everyone!
Yes, I really am that cheerful this morning despite the fact that I feel like a Mack truck ran me over in the night. I am ready to stop taking Librium already, I don’t know why it makes me feel so crappy the next day, but it really helps me sleep when [...]

Tiredness and Another Blood Pressure Update

April 7, 2010

Sorry I haven’t been updating as much. I’ve been really busy, which is a good thing. And I’ve been EXTREMELY tired the past few days, especially today. In fact, I feel like going back to bed and am very tempted to do so. I am so tired right now that you [...]

Blood Pressure Update & New Puppy Pics

April 4, 2010

I forgot to mention that last night, I stopped at a pharmacy and took my blood pressure. I’d taken one of my anxiety/BP meds about 7 hours prior to the test. And the results were…
126/77.
That is GREAT for me. I am so looking forward to when the numbers are even lower. [...]

Quick Easter Day Update

April 4, 2010

Today was a good day… I spent some time with family members with whom I’d had ‘issues’ with in the recent past (caused mostly by my former insecurities). In fact, I apologized to a couple of them for my prior childish insecurity and jealousy issues. All was taken well and we had a [...]
