Het trots remember when you were talking about fat girls and saying how some of them are pretty and there's a difference between fat girls based on how fat they are?

I thought that was kinda hilarious

I'm really fat at the moment. It's such a pain. Everything feels too small and right and uncomfortable.

My husband used to be an asshole about it but then at my insistence he wen to therapy and started medication and now he's fat and mellow like me. We're like a couple of jolly pigs on the sofa each night, gorging ourselves on delicious treats.

the same is true of fat men i would think, you know. some of them are good looking and some of them are not and as they get fatter the less appealing they are

fat girls feel nice though also can still have a figure

i feel gross and self concious talking about this

very low calorie diets will ultimately slow your weight loss down - I've been there before. I lost 4kg in a week, and then gained 2 back through moderated eating because my body had adapted to the new caloric intake. It's really demoralising feeling so hungry and measuring everything you eat, and gaining anyway, because your fasting can't be sustained long term.

It's standard advice but start slow. Make small changes, because they are the easiest to maintain. Recording what you eat helps. And having non-food rewards will help, too.

Exercise first thing before you eat. Fasted cardio works really well for me.

High fibre foods, and protein, both help to keep the hunger at bay - caffeine definitely works, too. But eat high fibre and protein. Fat makes things satisfying. Really the only way to beat hunger is to not let yourself feel it, so eat mindfully all day long.

Get used to celery, salad, tuna, oil & vinegar salad dressings, & water. And find a way to enjoy exercise.

then you'll end up married with kids and working full or part time and your challenge will be having the strength to resist cake when you're hurting and vulnerable and emotionally spent, and finding an hour in your day, to exercise.

I woke up at 2:45 and stupidly read a work email and then couldn't get to sleep until about 4:30, just enough time to sleep enough to make it really hard to get out of bed when my alarm went off. Blerg.

Soooo not great so far! Thinking of getting a haircut though. Woo.

i still have a "free" haircut to get before November 30. over the summer i was suckered by a guy on state st. selling these certificates or whatever that were $40 for an $80 dollar haircut. 2 free lip waxes, 2 eyebrow waxes, a manicure, and 50% off any coloring or highlights are also included.

i just want a cut and a manicure, y0.

yah same here. i told my therapist i was just sad and furthermore frustrated there is really no good reason. which makes it that much harder to pinpoint a cause and make it stop...that's what i want. i'm just blue and need lots of coddling and funnies.

makes me a little anxious for winter. this could be a combination of the winter blues (nothing new to me) and the fact i ran out of my lithium and lamictal almost two weeks ago.

i just got back from the gym, though. i was there two hours and cannot wait to see how sore i will be tomorrow.

The hint of cold overcast weather makes me think of Portland which makes me feel good and bad at the same time
I'm really looking forward to going back but only because I want to go back to the dark drippy cold and drive around my favorite places, I don't even want to see a single person over Christmas

Winter makes me happy but I live in CA where it's too hot for me and the coolness is just a break from the gross sweating

Do you mean lamictal, generic name lamotrigine?

I took that, it did nothing so far as I could tell - but I was always taking it as a second medicine.

I feel like I'm finally stabilising on duloxetine now (Cymbalta).

Lamictal is actually an anti- convulsant I think? Usually prescribed for epilepsy - but has shown to work as a mood stabiliser for bipolar. Erica will know more...

I hate these days.

I usually end up staying up till 2am for a week when this happens, and being too tired to do anything during the day. Sleep deprivation sucks

yeah, if you're talking about lamictal, i currently take it as well as cymbalta, just like vixnix. i also take seroquel and wellbutrin.

i am not bipolar, but am taking it and seroquel off label for PTSD-related anxiety. It definitely gave me big benefits at first, but now as I am getting off things and unraveling all of the medications, I do believe Lamictal will be the next one to go.

as far as i remember from being around a lot of psych patients, lamictal is pretty easy on the system and is a good thing to try before going to meds with more side effects (weight gain/metabolic syndrome specifically) or that need frequent blood tests (like lithium). im sure the doc warned you of any kind of rash, to discontinue and call him. it can be nasty but as long as you discontinue if you get it you will be fine. i never had any rash or itchiness. it actually is the only med that had that "can make you more suicidal" side effect for me, though it is rare, especially for someone in their 30s. i was like 23 at the time. i felt a lot better, but i kept on having visions of jumping over the balcony every time i went out for a smoke. it was strange and may have just been a coincidence.

good luck

yeah, i dont consider mood dampening to be a reasonable side effect, but then again i've never been manic where a neutral mood might mean not having sex with a different person every night or whatever manic behaviors someone may have.

imo people get the wrong idea about psych meds because people assume that mood dampening, "no feelings" type effects are what they are supposed to do - but in reality, they are side effects that may or may not be acceptable for someone, depending on their condition or whatever. for me, it was never an ok side effect and i've never stuck with a medication that zombified me.

that sounds awful, I'm sorry. my girlfriend got on depo provera in May and it completely fucked her up in every way imaginable, but she didn't have any periods for like 2 months but when she was coming off it in July she bled every day until mid September. We learned not to go anywhere near depo again. She's on anti depressants as a result of it, goddamn.

I often feel the urge to have sex with a new partner. Never thought that it could be a manic thing.
