I have friends who talk about how awful their pdocs (psychiatrist) are. They claim their pdoc never listens to what they say, and won’t make any med changes even when asked. It feels, at times, they are talking about Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde. I always felt lucky. The pdoc I first worked with, Doctor Lisa, would spend a […]

It’s Time to Get Back Now!!!!!!!!
I was looking through the Blogosphere when I stumbled on Psych Centerals list of favorite blogs in 2008. I was very proud to be one of the winners. I am still struggling with the meds and definately my weight. I’m here and I’m back (please don’t count the number of times I said that). I’m […]

Time For Some Updates
Exercise: The last time I posted my weight, I had lost some weight and had reached a plateau and was struggling to lose 2 more pounds as a mini goal. I haven’t been on a scale since then and for good reason. I haven’t taken a good healthy walk since returning from my vacation a […]

Happy Happy Joy Joy
Yesterday afternoon was the big day to check my weight. Based on the title I won’t try to hold you in suspense. I’ve now lost 9 pounds out of my current 24 pound weight goal. I stood in shock and couldn’t believe what I was seeing. My doctor came up behind me and said, I […]
I Feel Great..Zzzzzzzzz
Like anyone in life, somedays I seem like a complete genius and other days I seem like a complete idiot. Since I’ve been running on three hours of sleep I’m sure you can imagine what I’m looking like these days. I’m happy to say I did not wake up this morning at 3am, but the […]
