My Weight

Posted on by kmarrs

I’ve mentioned I’m losing and had someone say I looked so skinny already. Trust me, I’m not. Before pregnancy I was about 215. After I was about 250. I then lost about 10 due to going back on my meds and suffering side effects. Then I went off them, got depressed and ballooned to the highest I’ve been at 260. I’m now back down to about 240-250. My secret? Meds that induce nausea for 2 weeks, so little food intake, just to have them balance out to a small appetite. In other words I’m hungry for 3 moderate meals a day and little in between. LOL My meds are forcing me to eat right.

60 MG Celexa still
80 MG Geodon still. I was at 160 again for a whole day trying it minus the arthritis but I can’t do it. It fucks with my muscles too much.

I’m going to ask to add a mood stabilizer to the mix. It took me a while to come to this. For too long that’s what I was prescribed and nothing else when they thought I was bi-polar. And it nearly killed me because I was stabilized in a depressive. I’m far enough out of the depressive now, that I crave the stabilization I think it will bring. I don’t know if she’ll pair it with the anti-psycotic though. So we’ll see. I also refuse depakote and Lamictal. They have bad connotations in my brain. So maybe we’ll try Lithium or something else.
