I went to counseling today. The lady is pretty nice. She was able to get me to talk about things by asking the right questions. This is good because I honestly didn't really know how to explain everything without seeming crazier than I am. I have another appointment next week. We shall see how this goes. I did fill out the form to allow her to talk to my doctor since I am on the psychotropic drugs and she isn't one of the therapists allowed to prescribe so if they think there should be changes, it is easier if she can work directly with him. I can allow or disallow her to discuss with people at anytime by filling out the right form, and specifically naming the person. They are super crazy about patient confidentiality at this place, which is good because I am sure that some people are uncomfortable with the idea that anyone knows they are seeking therapy. I clearly don't care, seeing as how I throw the info out on the internet for all and sundry.
I worked this morning, and although I am still crazy weak, I did manage to deliver all the parcels I was assigned and a few extra too. Including multiple boxes of 60lb kettle bells. I may or may not have cussed the recipients out in my head. I also had a large box that had to go down a bunch of beach-front stairs, thankfully the owners keep them in pretty good shape because the box was big enough that I was having a hard time navigating the steps. And I had a large box that had to go up an interior stairwell but was so wide that I couldn't carry it so I had to carefully roll it up the steps. :/
I like rural carrying because this really is a very pretty place in which to live and work. I get to see more of the pretty stuff outside of town. :)
Still weak and nauseated, I feel a little bit better this evening. Hopefully this means I am finally on the mend.
Food: Today was not the vision in any way, shape or form. But I operated under the eat-what-sounds-good-because-there's-a-better-chance-of-it-staying-down premise. I tried to stay within my carb guidelines and hopefully my sugar won't be sky high tomorrow.
Breakfast: SF Hot cocoa (6 am) and 2 SF Jello pudding cups (I didn't eat until 11am because I was super nauseated this morning)
Lunch: Arbys. Roast beef sandwich and salad, water to drink This is one of those eat what sounds good things. It certainly tasted good and by choosing the salad instead of fries and eating more roast beef and less bread, I think I managed to contain the carbs to my alloted amounts.
Dinner: Here's where the carbs get sketchy. I had 2 pieces of pizza from central market. I did eat the crust. It was absolutely flaming delicious. I have contacted the store regarding nutritional info, but don't have anything concrete. I can have up to 60 g in the occasional meal (more than the usual, but not good to do frequently especially if you are trying to lose weight) And I am hoping that if I am not within the 60 that I am not too far over. :/ At least it won't be as bad as the Taco Bell fiasco from a few weeks ago.
Tomorrow is a new day, and at least I didn't have the large chocolate banana split blizzard from DQ that I would seriously contemplate letting someone have my left arm for. Even the mini version is super high in carbs, trust me I am trying to figure out a way to have some. And on that day, I will celebrate. Hahahaha
If I am not feeling super fabulous after tomorrow (he really needs me to come in tomorrow), my supervisor has said that he might be able to let me have a day or two off, but honestly, I need the hours, so I am really hoping I feel much improved in the morning.
And that folks, is all she wrote....for today at least.
