Good Day Sunshine

So another day is upon me, and I feel like I've done a 180 since yesterday. I feel so much better, want to actually eat, and just over all feel good. I went to the sleep medicine doctor this morning, and it was oh so thrilling. It kind of went down like this:

Me: "Hi Doc, I am having trouble sleeping."
Doc: "Do you wear your mask?"
Me: "Well kind of, but like I said, I am having a hard time falling asleep, so when I finally do fall asleep I don't always put it on"
Doc: "well you need to wear your mask"

Hey, DOC, are you LISTENING to me! See, seriously, if I could sleep like a normal person, don't you think I would throw that baby on every night, just to appease you? Why yes I would.

ANYWHO...today So far I have had a protein shake with some PB, some tuna fish, and some black bean soup. Food is going okay, when I want to eat. So yah!

I got a compliment from one of my friends today about how the weight is just falling off of me. That was pretty nice to have someone notice. I haven't really weighed myself, mainly because my scale is jacked up. It gives me one weight, and then you get on again, and its different.

Anywho, I should get cleaning...

The ugly truth

The truth is...I'm in recovery. The other truth is emotionally, I'm a disaster. I haven't written in here because the truth is, losing libby was originally about weight loss surgery and how much weight I've weight I lost. In the past few months, more emotionally damning crap has happened to me, my family, my parent(s), my brother, and many people in my ever shrinking circle. I am an addict. I am well educated. I live in the suburbs. I have a child. I have serious mental health issues. I tell you all of the ugly in an attempt to hold myself accountable for the things I have done, the things I have put my family through, and most important...what I have done to myself. If you would have told me five years ago or so that I would be unemployed, filing for disability, and doing medication assisted treatment for addiction...I would have laughed in your face and said you were crazy. The truth is, like many other Americans, I'm not the only one. How d...

Much a blog about nothing…

So I haven’t written in a while. Losing Libby hasn’t lost in about a year now. Haven’t really gained either, but regardless, life definitely happened. I recently watched the beautiful Eggy on the Ricki Lake Show. She embodies what most of us feel post gastric bypass. That there is still this obese person even if your not as obese as you once were. It was a good wake up call to me, proving that my job of losing weight is not over, nor will it ever be probably. I’m getting older and I can feel it. I feel old sometimes. Kind of like, who is this 75 year old woman kind of old. I need to move my ass more. So the next phase of Losing Libby is going to be about losing my bad attitude about exercise. God help me.
