Ewwwwwww.... the belly bug.

Going to have to start this week a bit derailed, I've got the stomach bug, aka Norovirus. Fact, it is NOT the 'flu' as so many people refer to it as the stomach flu, it is in fact a virus. It really didn't hit me until early yesterday morning, and in spite of it I did go to church. Probably not the best idea. After being sick for three months off and on I was darned if I was going to let 'not feeling good' get the best of me. So I put on my 'big girl panties' and went to church. Bad juju. Then to add fuel to the fire the hubby and I went with friends from church to lunch at the local Chinese food place. That's where I realized that it was something more than just a belly ache and frequent, very frequent potty breaks. I was miserable. So after a trip to Target for stuff for electrolytes and Pepto I was at home and in bed. I got a LOT of rest and now it's after 4AM and I'm wide awake. Last week I was up early with David almost every morning, and I think my body clock is just attuned to that now. I'm not normally a morning person however I am liking this early routine. I get a lot done, and if I'm tired, I just take a nap. I will be resting today though and eating a bland and protein packed diet to restore myself.

New Year...

Watching Fat Sick and Nearly Dead 2, and looking at how far I've come. To be honest, not very far, but that doesn't mean I'm going to give up on my goals...2015 is a year of 20 ' s for me. The big one being 20 years of sobriety. Over the past year I have come to the realization of my addiction to 'comfort food' and processed food. I've also dealt with a lot of health issues, from diabetes to malignant hypertension. I also live with bipolar  and PTSD and the meds I HAVE to take in order to live. A lot of us out there started on New Years resolutions on the first, today I start again on a LIFE CHANGE! When I got sober I knew it wasn't just to placate the powers that be, I wanted to change my life... almost 20 years later I'm still sober, but due to the other factors in my life, I have replaced one addiction with another... alcohol for food. So today is the first day, and with my last glass of chocolate milk I start. I'm not going to put numbers out...

Back at it again...

Like with any addiction, you can't do it on your own or without help. I'm back in the food wagon again, along with the mind and body as well. All part of my life and David's life as well, we're doing this together. I'm excited, not just about the losing of weight for vanity purposes (I'm not going to lie), but for the new life of feeling good physically and spiritually. When I saw myself in the commercial I was filmed in I cried... that was not me. I'm ready... what have I got to lose except maybe 70 lbs.
