    @ObesityWarrior I was first diagnosed with bipolar disorder when I was about 15 years old after a short stay in the psych Hospital and I've been on a variety of medications since then. lithium was one of the first medications I was on and for many people it is kind of a miracle drug and helps them tremendously my only worry is that you had mentioned that you are a quick cycling bipolar. I am also a quick cycling bipolar and lithium is designed for a slow cycling bipolar it may work for you and trust me I hope it does but please take that into consideration if they start trying to adjust the amounts a lot you may want to talk to them about a lot of anticonvulsant medications that are also used for bipolar disorder. These medications like Depakote and Latuda have had a lot of success with quick cycling bipolar. once again whatever ultimately works for you works for you. Ive just done a lot of research and would like to share the knowledge that I have with you and I wish you all the luck

    Two lazy days (one was a planned rest day, the other was derailed by a planned event), but tonight was a MASSIVE workout at the gym. Awesome workout.

    It amazes me just how much activity you all do. Nearly killed me just cleaning out my bathroom yesterday.

    I haven't done any official activity for a week and a half, but I did a lot of housework yesterday and if sweating and short of breath means your burning fat, then I burned loads!

    Going to try and do another hour of housework after work today. Tomorrow night I will be at Aquafit. But as it will be the last Tuesday night class and then I will only have Thursday night, I am going to have to find another activity to do in its place.
