I'm here......

Weighed myself this morning (it's been a long time - probably since the last time I posted here)

Weight is exactly the same. Good news. I'm maintaining.

I've been struggling. My anxiety was creeping back until BAM - suddenly I wasn't sleeping
(or when I was, I was having horrid nightmares) I was BONE tired all day long
(falling asleep at my desk at 10.00am) I had a constant headache/jaw ache
(which we now think was me clenching my teeth) BP was climbing and I withdrew into myself,
shut down and didn't feel like doing anything.

The trigger - increasing my BIH medication and doubling another BP medication
(to make up for one that I stopped)
I see it as a failure or as going backwards. Or realizing that losing weight isn't the answer to all of my problems.

Anyway, I've increased my anxiety medication and yesterday (day 5) I finally didn't feel tired during the day.
(the night before I had dreamt of food instead of losing my children LOL)

Hoping to see an increase of my energy levels now that I'm getting some sleep again.

Headache free - yay!

Have to add a photo here that amused me :)

My sister bought me a face mask while I was in hospital and put it on for me.
I was imagining all sorts of things written on it as I lay there with it on my face :)
(for the record - it was something tame, like "sleepy time")
