I had less hot flashes last night, maybe a coincidence.
better sleep woke up at 8 well rested. so that is good. I really like not having an 8;30 appointment. So I can get up naturally, with out the alarm.
I took my first day of maca for hot flashes and it did seem to help last night.
Take them with meals so it will be twice a day.
Getting on the scale today:


176.2
lost one pound in 4 days. ( one pound is 4 sticks of butter!)
I will take it

About 7years ago I was down to 122, I am 5'7". I kept looking at the scale and thought like you did maybe I could get to 120. I was sick/manic exercising and dieting. It took me falling and breaking my collar bone to finally wake out of it and started eating freely again.

So last november I was my highest in years. 186, that is a 64 pound weight difference. I gain 50 pounds in the past 2 years.
so I will take 176 and start feeling more in control again.
My eating is under control, as is my drinking being alcohol free.
now if I could just a get more moderation on the computer, that would be great.
my right nipple hurts on the flat smooth part, can't remember what that is called.

Are you thinking about the areola (of your breast)?

You are doing great, Bizi!

I would probably space out the vits and mins to make it easier to see what's causing side effects in case you get them. But sometimes it takes time for some of them to produce side effects, so Mari has a good idea about just discontinuing them one by one until you find the source of the problem (if you get one).

yes you are right about my breast. It is a surface pain almost like there is a splinter that gets triggered when brushed across if that makes any sense.
I will just take the maca for a while to see if I have any side effects from that so far none but it has only been a few days.
I think my hot flashes have diminished, not as intense. It maybe coincidence.
But I will continue taking it. IT IS VERY expensive so I have to decide if a little difference is worth the extra money.
$40 for 24 days worth.
any way we are off to go have gumbo and I see 2 clients out of town today. An hour away is this town called Iota. Their daughter guilted me into going, but the money is good and it is only once every 2 months. I go on a saturday as a 4 hour block of time is not feasible during the week.

Had a light dinner -coconut milk and tomatoes and lentils Soup and half an avocado. Still wanted more to eat so had some chocolate and some dried cherries and blueberries and some nerds candy. I am chewing a big wad of gum and sipping diet/stevia ginger root beer. Ate in my window of time noon to 7 then will eat at 11-12 for 16 hours of a fast.
7 days AF



Jeff is gone having a beer with a friend after a gig that they played for a fund raiser. He played banjo which he borrowed from a friend...she has a really nice banjo. He gives her lessons during the school year thru continuing ed.


I made a deposit but should be sending out bills to families. Have to bill in order to get paid. I am about 2-3 weeks out and need to do them tomorrow. I also have to do laundry and need to rake up fallen magnolia leaves. They are huge and don't break down. We have been watering the grass as we have not had any rain for quite some time.
little chance of rain this week.


Well I should find something to do.
We watched insidious chapter 4 which was not as scary as the first 3 were but we still enjoyed the movie.
Tomorrow I will work in the yard, get sweaty and take a shower.

The breast sensitivity must be uncomfortable, and may be a symptom of your peri-menopause. I would apply a good lotion, and do a self breast exam just in case tho

I'm sorry the movie wasn't as scary as the others. We haven't watched Insidious 3 or 4 yet.

what caused your initial weight gain? I started gaining weight after my explosion at 35 and dropped most of it and gained from medication and anxiety

I know that my all of my weight gain was from drinking too many dark fattening beers.
I was hypomanic when I got down to `137 nov of 2015, that is when I bought the new scrubs, a size medium. almost 50 pounds later I had to wake up and buy new scrubs size extra large, so comfortable. I was miserable in the mediums but it felt like a defeat buying the new larger scrubs. Like I was never going to lose the weight. It is common for me to yo yo weights 50 pounds etc. It is very hard on my body and my mind.
Some of the weight gain was from abilify. Now I am taking a small dose of zyprexa that is notorious for weight gain, but I have been able to lose some while on it. I was down to 167 not that long ago, started drinking again and regained the weight that I lost.
sigh
I should give up drinking for good but I can't.

raked some leaves up this morning...had lunch at the diner and am going to work on some flower pots While doing laundry, scrubs etc.
