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 […]


Day by day, as I sit waiting for a call to schedule my back surgery, I get better, stronger, in less pain, etc. The other day I felt stable enough to attempt some ‘moves’ and I was successful in a full squat – plus standing up unassisted, w/ both legs powering, and no scaling. Huge. […]


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 […]


I have decided that if it’s offered to me as a viable option, I will be having surgery to treat the herniated disc. Then, I will do what I know how to do to keep the other discs I found out are ‘bulging’ from getting as bad as the herniated one. Today I went to […]


In so many ways I feel better than I ever have. In other ways, I just feel old & decrepit. The supplements really helped, and I felt like I was getting better, then stuff started going numb. Fingers, toes on my left foot, and my right leg from my thigh down. My hip is hurting […]


I haven’t visited my own blog since the end of October. I started writing a post then got distracted & just never came back. Life is what it is. I’m still grieving and processing stuff from the last 7 months. Still working on me, my marriage, and my life. Got off track w/ that & […]


I have spent the time since therapy contemplating stuff. It was a good session. I also signed up for the coping skills class – that starts Monday. According to the psychologist, I definitely have Bipolar 2. That’s good – less severe than 1. The anger stuff may have started out because of the bipolar swings […]


Wow. Life has a way of spinning one about. The last almost year has been just something else. Walls coming down, relationships started & bombed, threats to my family, losing family members, gaining closure and self-respect, more hospital time & seeing my baby wheeled off to surgery, and breaking of emotional chains. Wow. I’ve gotten […]


I did it! 229.4 on the scale. Joked with my husband that I should write a book: Weight Loss Through Malnutrition and Stress. After more than a week with my son in the hospital (broke his thigh, but had surgery to put in titanium rods & he’s home and recovering now), I look about 10 […]


Well, today brought 230.6 on the scale. Not enough to call the 100 lbs Gone Forever. So, I processed my feelings while getting ready for my day. Yes, I was really hoping it would be 100 today. I’m ok that it’s not, because I know it will happen. And, what happens the day after? I […]
