I'm.having the same problems today ugh

I'm 5'1 on a lucky day and having about 10-14 pounds to go. I will see where I feel good at. I have not been this current weight (142) in a VERY LONG time!!!! Since like the year 2000!!

Hi Marissa! My real name is Kim. I am bipolar 1. I was diagnosed 12 years ago. In 10 days I will be 46. I was hospitalized for about 2 weeks. It was my first and last hospitalization. Currently I take klonopin, Wellbutrin and Topamax and have been on that mix for the past 3 years or so and have been doing pretty well. I…

Bump for recipe!

I'm 45. I don't know. I'm bipolar so hard to tell. I have mood swings all the time. I am starting to have hot flashes though. I am told I have fibroids and it is recommended I have a hysterectomy but my periods aren't extremely heavy. I'm just going to follow this thread.

I am in Iowa and still have spaghetti squash at the grocery store found with the other squash. However, fixed one the other day and didn't taste too good. Like a sour taste. I baked it in the oven in a casserole dish face down with water and the casserole dish broke. I don't know if that had anything to do with it or not??…

bump for ideas!!

Me too!!

I just wondered what in the world are "new" Mexicans? I totally read that wrong. And yes I know where New Mexico is!!

I'm in Shenandoah, Iowa. We come through Newton frequently when making trips to Iowa City to see our college son!! I'm working on my last 20-25 pounds too!!

I live about a half hour from Rock Port, MO but I live in Iowa. We shop in Maryville some and my hubby spent a lot of his growing up years in Skidmore, MO.

Today is especially awful for me too and I'm also dealing with PMS and my poor hubby gets the worst of me always!! I honestly don't know how he has stood me for 24 years!! Meds have made it way more tolerable. I haven't been outside today and I really should do that but its so cold and dreary out. It's helped me so much…

LOL....It came with a warning!!

Thank you. I actually have that site book marked. I'm just researching every way possible!!

Thanks - I wasn't quite sure where to post it!!

Okay, once in awhile I look at MFP'ers profiles for motivation and I saw this post!! Talk about motivation. Your transformation is amazing! You should be very proud. I hope to find my motivation again!! Kim

Oh my. Find out what you CAN do. Check with the Better Business Bureau. Check with your local TV stations and see if they will investigate. You can't be the only ones this happened to. I'm not sure how to get over this if you can't recover the money. That's enough to send anybody into depression. Hopefully you will recover…

I gained nearly 100 pounds on lithium and Depakote. I've lost about 80 of it and struggly to lose the other 20. I got worse stretchmarks than from being pregnant two times. I have found more people at MFP that are bipolar than I have in the 10 years I have had this in real life. Feel free to friend me!

My favorite is cookies, preferably chocolate chip. I have a bad habit of dunking them in coffee or milk. I know this grosses alot of people out but there is something comforting about it to me. I also love cheesecake but thankfully can't eat alot of that at one time because it is so rich!!

Do you mean bipolar disorder? Yes I have that and anxiety and depression. Have had for 10 years and still struggling, always trying to find a balance! Sending you a friend request.

Bump to print off for reference!!

Yoga or Pilates!

For insomnia I have found I have to cut out naps. After I did that I sleep ALL night. I loved my naps but then I didn't sleep well at all and I would hear my hubby snoring and that would make me even more agitated. My brain is overactive too. When I remember, if I put a rubber band around my wrist and snap it, it will…

Hello! I'm a "new" stay at home mom as I recently left my job - with bipolar. I sent you a friend request.
