Gained it Back

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

Thanks to some poor planning and what is now two bouts with sickness I’ve gained back almost all the weight I’ve lost since the beginning of the year. I’m finding it hard to not depress myself about this. I’ve even caught myself looking for a reliable quick weight loss program despite everything I’ve previously said. [...]

Fear Issues

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

It seems there are still quite a few things that we need to work through when it comes to fear and paranoia. Case in point, yesterday hubbie misplaced his car keys. He couldn’t find them before he left to go somewhere so I gave him mine (he was going to be driving my car anyway) [...]

Hang-Ups: Weight, Health & Pscyhe

Friday, February 19th, 2010

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the dieting aspect of my life and the reasons why it’s so hard for me. I know some of it is due to the sedentary lifestyle I lead which is partially choice and partially the fibro. I need to take the choice part out of the equation and [...]

Quiet: Dye-Free Foods

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

It’s strange how quiet the house is today; we’ve had screaming, cat chasing, hissing, cat fights and tearing around the house like a herd of elephants, and that’s just been the munchkin. I was wanting to pack up for one of those Outer Banks vacations the past few days given it’s been so cold and [...]

How I Came to Be, part 1

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

It’s difficult to comprehend the nature of my existence some times. “I” have been on Earth 29 years at this point, yet I know for a fact I didn’t exist this way before June of last year. It makes things confusing.
If any of you have been following on since the beginning of this blog [...]

Weight Check-In: Week #4

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

So, we’ve been at this a month now, though I forgot to update last week. This is this morning’s count. Doing very well, methinks.

I’m at 240 now, which is 8.4 since the start of the year, but 16 down overall since my highest point last year. Woohoo! No wonder I kept losing my jeans [...]

Reflecting

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

I was realizing the other night while hubbie and I were talking that we’ve been together 7 years. Well, 7 years 5 days now. Our first date was to see “Final Destination 2″ on the day that Columbia blew up, 1 February 2003. Hubbie proposed to me the following Thanksgiving, but we didn’t get married [...]

Last Therapy Session

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

This is supposed to be a jubilant event, the graduating from therapy and moving on free as a bird into the regular world with the tools to handle it, and the understanding of how things work. Except in this case it’s not. There are no celebrations, no champagne, no new hp laptops or cars. This [...]

Weight Check-In: Week #2

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I’m down a pound since last week, which I’m surprised at, I haven’t done much walking this week because I’ve been sick with a mega-cold, and recovering from work which really did it in for me as I’ve mentioned several times.
So, to have lost a pound is awesome. Again I’m attributing this to [...]

Work & Health

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I haven’t been writing about this issue because I wanted to get it resolved with my family and my employer before I spoke of it online. It was common courtesy.
I’ve been having issues with my health at work, again. I spoke about the fact that I pulled out my shoulders and was having flare-ups. [...]
