I fell off the bandwagon hard...and apparently gt run over several times too. I am back on after jumping back up to 235 but I am at 229 following you on a diet. Thank Dr Oz. Your common sense approach to weight loss really works.
I am sorry i seemed to have disappeared. I needed a break to get this medication stuff in order. By 9 days in to taking Welbutrin, my stomach really hurt and I think it was constipation. I know you are all glad to hear that.
When I hit the 2 week point, all the side effects went away and I still felt good. better even but had some problems sleeping. I always have. I went back to the doc for a complete check up and despite eating more then I should because the medicine made me feel like I had to eat or be sick, I lost 2 pounds.
We decided to up my Welbutrin to 300 mgs and I am on day 3 of this does. No side effects except some minor tummy troubles.
He gave me Lunesta for sleeping and it was terrible. It was like having an aspirin in your mouth all day. I did not sleep any better and it tore my stomach up. I just want a good night sleep.
Anyway, the doc and I talked for almost an hour about diet and weight loss. He was so sweet. He told me he knew it was hard because he struggled every day like me. He was understanding and compassionate.
So, I feel like I have the depression under control and I have some Ambien for a few good nights sleep and I will start working on my body again.
Thanks to you all who took the time to comment.
I am so far off track from south beach that it can no longer be called south beach. I will have to start from scratch. I am not even step on the scale because I am sure it will make me cry...but I did it to myself.
Wellbutrin is supposed to help with weight loss but it seems to make me very munchy. Is that even a word? I just want to eat all the time. It is also making my stomach hurt a little. Feels like gas but I don't think it is. I am have some dizziness issues and have bouts of irritability. I don't feel depressed anymore but I don't think being pissed off all the time is better.
I am going to the store to get some salads and will do a detox Starting Monday morning. Why Monday? Well, I have new wood floors going in this week and several field trips and 5th grade graduation. I just know I will not be good this week and I do not want to put any pressure on myself that might make me want to purge. I have felt the urge a few times but have not done it.
I didn't really realize that I had a eating disorder but now I am more clear in my head and I can see that it is a thought that always pops up when my stomach feel a little full. I am shocked. I have a eating disorder. One of the things it says in the warnings on wellbutrin is to tell your doctor if you have an eating disorder. That makes me a little scared but I am not ready to tell anyone...other then you all but you don't know me in person.
I guess I can just add this to my list of crap that is wrong with me.
CRAP!
Eating healthy has been put on the back burner while I deal with everything else. I am back to where I was before. Planning a meal, let alone eating it is just more then I want to think about. Eating is just another chore I have to do.
other times I binge. I have not purged though. The whole, every meal is a choice and I can always do the right thing at the next meal, thing has backfired.
I used that thinking to help myself not feel guilty but instead it has turned into my motto. Next meal I will do right...but it is like tomorrow, it never comes.
I really hope that wellbutrin helps curb the binging and I can get back on track. My last weigh in at the doctor was 232 and I have posted on here that I was at 228 at my lowest. I don't know how accurate that is because it was only for a few hours. I would say I have put on a pound or two.
yesterday was a great day for me and I had a lot of energy. I hope that is what everyday will be like.
Drug me up baby. I am back from my doctors appointment. He was a new doctor and I liked him a lot. he actually talked top me and got to know a little about me instead of just shoving me a prescription.
I am depressed. It is not my fault. it is a bio-chemical imbalance that Welbutrin will put right (we hope) and I will feel better. I hope to see a difference in a week or two and will go back to see him in three weeks for a complete physical. Now I have to decide if I will tell my husband. He thinks the medical community are all a bunch of pill pushing quacks. I don't think he will be all that supportive but I think that may be because he just does not know what to do or say to make things better.
I think I am out of control. It is 1 o clock in the afternoon and I just finished off a chocolate bunny. I just can't get it together. It was not that I was hungry, I don't know what possessed me to eat that. I go to the doctor tomorrow to talk about the possible depression.
I'm still here. I have another blog that I post on almost everyday Chronicles of an exhausted Mom if anyone would like to pop over and say hi. I have been having a few bad days and have cheated but nothing really bad...
I found out yesterday that I am suffering from depression. At least I think I am. My endo and talked about my thyroid results and everything was right on track. I asked her if there was anything else we were missing. She said she believe based on my symptoms that I had masked depression. After doing some research on it, I find that it describes me to a tee.
I am making an appointment with a new primary doctor (new insurance) and am going to talk to him about it. I feel so very tired. I am weary of everything including eating. Sometimes I wish I didn't have to eat, to think about it. I am weary of my children and my husband. Funny thing is that I am happy staying home. I am a mix right now and I feel like I am always in a hold pattern waiting for something...problem is that I don't really know what I am waiting for.
Thanks guys for posting comments. You have no idea how much it helps me.
haven't posted much lately because, well...I am down. No weight loss since starting phase two. I am not sure what I weigh because the scale is all over the place. This morning it was 232 but the other day it was 228. I feel like eating everything bad for me.
I am a little bummed. I am up one pound but it is my TOM. I have been having a lot of trouble eating lately. I just don't want to eat. I have not been drinking water. I am doing the wrong things. Got to try better. I will weigh in again after TOM just to see if that may be what it is.
I was not going to post today because I am having a bad TOM day. Dietwise I have not really been eating much except for Advil for cramps. I will weigh tomorrow but I am not sure what number I will see on the scale.
