that medication did nothing for me. sorry about the weight gain. i started losing weight by drinking a lot of low sodium soup. it is not that satisfying.

it seems to be working for me, i think. it might be too soon to tell tho? (6months?) and I'll keep the soup in mind. i'll have to get used to soups and soft foods diet for my surgery anyway. :P

except... well I just came here to say i'm feeling the pull towards social media again. i think a lot of it is still habit and not having anything else to do. well, i'm here instead right now

finally heard back from my pdoc's office this morning. said they'd call in about the requests for information...again? I think they didn't get a response before or something. oh it's so confusing and frustrating!
my appointment with pdoc is this week and i don't know what to talk about if she doesn't get my paperwork. And even if she does, I don't know that she'll treat me for ADHD. Maybe another non-stimulant, but so far i didn't like 2 of those types so... rats! as Bobby would say

feel I should have more to say, but I never know what to say. :/ (this is everywhere, not just here)

social media is very addictive so it is best to use a timer and decide before you get on there how long you want to spend there.
a kitchen timer works so does your phone.
good luck with that.

as i had a few minutes to think while making coffee on the stove, I remembered I wanted to mention my exercise routine, or lack thereof. No, I lack it due to my difficult periods, but I started to walk a bit last night and just now. Trying to incorporate
more walking through the day instead of snacking on chocolate. It's dark chocolate, so still good, but also still 60 calories a square. I was having at least 2 squares a day, most days. Trying to balance this all.

Good luck Gee

I would say make sure they have you sedated for the teeth.
that will help a lot. That is what I do now all the time.

I hate having teeth pulled like Bobby. Its my big vise.

Had my pdoc appointment today. Talked about all the basics, -be sure to have a good sleep routine, eat healthy and exercise. I didn't get a word in that I'm always working on these things, but yes, I can do better.
She asked me to take a food journal, because I'd been having a gassy stomach lately. I think some of it was due to my period though and the other part was some foods that I've stopped taking now. Will see
Today I walked for 10 minutes outside. It's cold. That's about as much as I could tolerate. Plus, I don't like walking where people can watch me...even though I do like the outdoors. But so it's going to be treadmill for me most days, but I'm going to try to get outside a little.

Oh last thing. She's having me start buspirone (buspar, I've heard others say). My worry is how will I keep track of when I take it. It looks like one of my thyroid meds (same shape and color) and I will be taking both now twice a day. ugh!

All this teeth talk is making me nervous again. (my Dad saying stuff too) I know my oral surgeon mentioned an IV, so I assume i'll be sedated. I suppose it's not too late for me to double check though too. Trying to prepare, but also trying not to think too much.


edit: adding) she also said my weight gain is likely do to the Zoloft, not Vraylar. Interesting how I'm only noticing it now, like 2 years later. *shrugs*
