I am eating what I want within reason. I bought snack foods to deal with my midnight eating. So that helps. I might walk today. Not sure yet. But I will definitely do some housework, which is exercise for me.

180 pounds. Not good. 35 pound weight gain in about a year. I want to lose 40 pounds. With the increase in Geodon, and some other med changes, and situational factors, it’s been rough. I did buy a lot of healthy foods today at the grocery store. A lot of vegetables and stuff I don’t usually eat. So that’s an improvement.

I think I've gained some weight. My legs are swollen and red. I won't step on the scale.

I have a weight I’m comfortable at. I don’t stress myself about society’s beauty standards etc.
I was recently on two medication steroids daily for over a month. I’ve gained weight which is common. I regularly go walking. I have not been able to this week because I’m dealing with a wisdom tooth and it’s been raining all week.

My legs were painful this morning. When I'm really overweight, I have issues with my legs. It doesn't help that I've run out of Gabopenin and I can't get it filled until tomorrow. I'm not sure why I ran out early. I will eat well today and try to exercise.

I was expecting to be 181 but I was actually 177. I haven’t been counting calories but I know I’ve been eating a lot of fruit and grilled chicken and therefore haven’t been hungry for much else.

I found my other bottle of Gabopentin. My legs didn't hurt as much today. For some reason, I'm retaining a lot of water. I will eat healthy today and do a lot of housework.

My appetite has just been weird since getting off the Wellbutrin. I haven’t been hungry for a lot of unhealthy foods like candy and ice cream the way I had been before, but I still get hungry. I just choose healthier snacks. Today I ate a ton of pre sliced apples with a small cup of Jif To Go. I’ve been drinking soda like crazy though. I think I’m maintaining right around 180.

I haven't been eating that well. But I have been exercising. Maybe it will all work out.

176 today. 4 pounds in a week without trying. I’ve been feeling alright. Just slightly under the weather at times. I know I’ve been making healthier food choices too. I still haven’t been counting calories really. I’m still drinking a lot of soda and coffee. I’ve been getting full really fast though and not finishing meals. I haven’t been too hungry. I’ve been eating a lot of fruits and vegetables.

I had very little desire to eat today but I did manage to eat some. I ate some mixed berries for breakfast around 7. so I at least had some fruit. Then I had 6 boneless buffalo wings and a few fries for lunch around 1 or so. I’m skipping dinner.

I had right around 1200 calories give or take for the zucchini pie this morning. I put it at 320 which is what google said. I ate pretty healthy except for the couple sodas I had.

I garbage picked a decent sized mini trampoline in great condition this afternoon. I’m hoping it’s an exercise I’ll finally enjoy.

I have gained weight recently. So much so that my illnesses are worse. I'm hoping to eat well over the next few days and lose some weight. But basically I hate diets and I hate exercise. So I will just try to eat as well as I can and pray that the weight comes off. Not sure what else I'll do. Maybe I should have weight lose surgery. I can't do this on my own. I'm such a big failure.

I’ve gained about 15 lbs over a course of three months...three months of me taking steroid medications daily. Prior to gaining the 15 lbs I walked and hiked regularly. Now that the temperatures are very hot in my area it’s harder for me to walk or hike. Hot temperatures cause my multiple autoimmune diseases/rare diseases to flare up. Many of the fitness centers that had indoor walking trails and a track have had them removed.

Maybe it’s the increase in Geodon and getting off the Wellbutrin or maybe I really am sick. But I have had no trouble sticking to my diet these last couple weeks and I have had no desire to eat or drink anything unhealthy except the occasional soda or iced coffee. But candy and chips and other stuff I was eating a ton of just very suddenly turned off my stomach. I now can only eat vegetables and fruit and grilled chicken and other healthy stuff I’ve had no desire to eat before. It could also be a T thing. I am not sure what is happening though. I’m not really complaining but I am not exactly feeling great either.

Dewed, The same thing has happened to me. Being ill and or taking antibiotics - they say they mess with your gut flora - will change my cravings. One time at work they had a pizza party (because we were working so much overtime, so of course my diet was messed up), and the salad just tasted SOOOO good - i was like, oh this is not normal, i think i have not been eating enough greens! And this one skinny guy manager runner kinda gave me a stern look and said THATS RIGHT. Geez guy. Im just trying to keep up with my life.

I've ordered a bunch of unhealthy foods today. But I quit vaping and I feel I need food to help me cope. I think quitting vaping is more important right now. I couldn't breathe earlier. So I will eat all kinds of bad food. At least that's how I feel. But I will try to manage it and not go overboard. I mainly want cappuccino right now. Maybe some ice cream.
