I guess I'll just say I hit rock bottom recently. I thought things were bad a few years ago but I realized it's about 10 times worse now... anyway.. my doctor is referring me to a nutritionist. She had done that a few years ago but I never followed through with it but I'm going to this time. I'm starting to feel optimistic about things. One of my meds was increased too and that's supposed to help. I feel okay today, I feel like I am ready for things to change.

good start to the week, but not so much the end.
one of my friends boyfriends had some sweets in his house he couldn't eat, so he gave them to me, and well.. of course that started off the overeating I've now also ordered 3 big bags of sweets- so I don't think it looks too promising for next week if I'm honest eaten my meals though, cleared the plate every evening |

Reached a new low for weight...ED was happy, but I know it is not good especially as I plan to resume running tomorrow as I am pretty much over my UTI. I may be trending toward hypomania with the bipolar...it always makes me eat less by preoccupying myself with projects, and it feels like it increases my metabolism to boot...
Didn’t see my pdoc in person this month (phone call appointment); next month I go back in person. He upped the Adderall a bit, but I only took the first new dose this AM. Maybe the antibiotic is messing with my appetite, who knows. Plus, I have been drinking a lot of diet cranberry juice to help get over the UTI. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, , propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, omeperazole I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost |

I need to get into a better mindset myself. It happens now and then, I have minor relapses, never so bad as the original recovery starting point though. I saw a PA for a UTI earlier this week, and he was practically thrusting nutritionist info and pamphlets at me. I'm sure if my regular PCP had been available, she might have sent me off for some bloodwork but not reacted so drastically as I've been seeing her 14 years now, she's seen me at some really bad lows. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, , propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, omeperazole I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost Last edited by Blueberrybook; Aug 10, 2018 at 05:26 PM.. |

I am so bad, I didn't eat last night, and I haven't eaten yet today and it is already 11:00 this morning. I will make myself eat something soon, only bc I have to take my hart meds, and if I don't eat something the meds make me dizzy.

Eating in and of itself is not bad. Your body needs fuel, and the meds would be annoying to take if you are dizzy.

I ran too much again this morning. It hardly makes sense. I don’t want to gain weight, and I do all this running, but I never count calories or watch the foods I eat. But I must be burning more calories with exercise than I am eating, losing weight that way.
I think I am getting hypomanic with the bipolar, and that tends to speed up my metabolism; that is common in bipolar during mania or hypomania. Could have been the hypomania egged me on to rub farther than I have since in my 20’s.
