One has only to google Keto diet (or ketosis, ketogenic diet, etc) with or without the Paleo addition to learn more than enough of the purported benefits of the diets/lifestyles. Please, don’t make be drop a LMGTFY. I have exactly four weeks until I have back surgery to repair a herniated disc in my low […]

So, at what point in your journey will you make the shift? Will you always be the person you were the second you decided to be that person no more? Is that your ‘normal’? So, if life intervenes you are just returning to that ‘norm’? Or, will you eventually *BE* a new person? Will you […]

Coffee Debate; #Paleo; #Bipolar
So, I had UTI problems again yesterday, about half-way in to my one cup of coffee. GRRR. So, I posted about it in a group on FB, and whined to my Mom about it. Some interesting suggestions came forth – low-acid coffee, bulletproof, cold-brew, etc. Now, I could buy special beans that are supposed to […]

I’m not sure if I’ve posted here about my hours-long frenzied cooking sessions, or my lopped off fingertips, accidental self-stabbings, Attention-Deficit-Disorder distractibility, food flinging like the Swedish Chef, using the smoke alarm as a kitchen-timer – type cooking style. I learned Friday that it’s not my style, per se, it’s often mania. I do the […]

I miss the days of Paleo where I crashed, slept like the dead, and woke up feeling like I could wrestle a bear. This zombie-mom stuff is for the birds. We even got to bed earlier last night, but I couldn’t fall asleep – then it was one of those nights where I think I’m […]

Once more into the fray! I took another step towards renewed wellness today by seeing a therapist for an evaluation. Nothing is carved in stone just yet – that will take several more visits to fine-tune & rule things out, plus I’m still looking at other causal factors, i.e. hormonal imbalances – but it looks […]

Got all of my test results for the blood work my doctor ran yesterday. Every single thing came back normal. My blood sugars, kidneys, electrolyte balance, thyroid, and cortisol levels. All normal. So. I guess that clinches it. What I’m dealing with is the adjustment disorder stemming from what happened when I helped take care […]

Turns out my doctor diagnosed me with Adjustment Disorder w/ Depressive Mood back in May, at my physical, just a couple of weeks after my Dad died. I was a wreck. Physically and emotionally. I found out today when I was putzing around the website my insurance uses, waiting for my lab results to start […]

I thought I would spend some time sharing some of what I’ve been working on these last couple of months, trying to cope with my Dad’s illness & death, and other emotional turbulences. First, I had to quiet my mind enough to tackle one thing at a time – that took a trip to the […]

Insomnia; Adrenal Fatigue
Most of my life, I had problems with sleep. Not the least of which was sleep apnea that was so severe at one point, my blood oxygen levels dipped into the 70′s, I stopped breathing for at least 10 seconds of every minute I tried sleeping. I’d nod off at the computer, at bus stops, […]
