Paranoid

Yesterday:

~Mocha Latte Shake - 5g carbs
~1 Stick of string cheese - 1g carbs
~Cashews - 12g carbs
~Eggs with bail cream sauce and broccoli w/ cheese - 10g carbs
~Sugar Free Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate mini bar - 4g carbs (and totally worth it)

My mom and Terry are really noticing the weight loss now. I guess I can see it a little. I'm sooo close to 10lbs I can taste it...hopefully by the end of the week I can hit that mark.

I have learned that I am a a little paranoid w/o Prozac in my system. Since my mom got robbed, I am scared to leave our blinds open. I try to hide our laptop before I go to work and I am scared to leave lamps on while I'm gone (I'm scared Heidi will knock them over and start a fire). And now since my mom saw someone die on a motorcycle, driving around makes me nervous. It always made me a little nervous, but man, it terrifies me now. Terry's driving never scared me much before, but now I am always putting my foot on my invisible break pedal. I'm also startled pretty easily. Terry can just walk into a room and I will jump and yelp. I know those are valid reason's to be a little more cautious and aware, but not super paranoid about). I hope that goes away with time. Poor Terry had no idea what he was getting himself into when he married me :-).

    This will level off and improve with some time, Brook. I experienced much the same thing after going off an SSSRI medication (Lexapro). As your eating habits continue to evolve and change and your blood levels on vitamins and nutrients improve, you will regain a good balance of seratonin and this will pass.

    Hang in there. I'm proud of what you are doing.
