I stepped on the scale with trepidation. I was afraid to see that once again I gained a few pounds. The bar was already at 285. When I stepped on the scale, the slider stayed flat. Didn’t budge a centimeter so I knew I was less than that – a good sign. I slowly started […]

Stuck at 282
Plateau’s while dieting are a bitch. Even more of a bitch is when you keep stuck at a certain weight and it’s because you’re not balancing your diet and exercise. (sigh) And that is….dare I admit it….oh no…..that is what I’m failing to do. My first goal in my weight loss is to lose 24 […]
Weight:: Trying to Reach the Goal
I’ve been hovering around 285 pounds for some time now. Not being one to take responsibility for my own actions I’ll blame it on being on a plateau. Don’t worry, this post will not be a pity party….ok, maybe a little. I walk every day so certainly those regular Ben & Jerry indulgences wouldn’t have […]
It’s Official….I’m Old
I’ve never been one bothered by age much. When I was 25 I was a little depressed because hearing I’m a quarter century old was a bit disheartening. I got over that and haven’t been bothered by any birthday since. Yesterday, however, that all changed. The change is worse than crows feet, stiffer joints, birthdays […]
Cookie Dough Party!
Yesterday I met with my pdoc and we decided to adjust my meds…..again. I always thought I was adaptable to change, but my God, will it ever stop! We’re going to try and wean me off of Depakote because it is likely to be one of the reasons I’ve had the shakes so badly. (chihuahua […]
Torn
I’ve got to accept it. I feel better when I eat meat, I lose weight faster, have more energy and have much better bowel movements (I’m sure you’re excited to know that). Anyone who’s read the book “Eat Right for Your Blood Type” won’t be surprise. I am type O blood which according to the […]
A Quest In The Night
Last night I was surfing the net and there was her picture. She was beautiful. She only lived two blocks from me but I’ve always been able to resist her. Last night was different. She called to me like a siren calls ships to the rocks. It was nearly midnight but I had become enchanted […]
An Amazing Weight Loss
A few weeks ago Maurice and I put our quarters in and stepped on one of those public scales. Too our surprise the scale matched exactly what the doctors scale did earlier that day. Yesterday we went to a movie (The Hulk) and in lobby there was another public scale. I put my quarter in […]
Sociopaths, Psychopaths and Psychotic Episodes
The question on my recent poll was “How often do you read this blog?”Here are the results: Everyday: 46%Couple of times a week: 6%Weekly: 6%Less than weekly: 1%Never before: 4% I’m happy with the results. I would like to see my “never before” column go up. I think most of us bloggers have a bit […]
Mania, Depression & Weight – Oh My!
My mania and depression are out of control. Ever take one of those small roller coaster’s that you think are going to be an easy ride, then you find it bumps and shakes and is more nerve wracking than a large one? Damn! I hate those, but that’s me these days. Nothing too high, nothing […]
