Notes to self
Oct. 27th, 2023 08:12 pmStarted back on Trulicity two days ago. it's been brutal. I mean, when I started this two years ago it was brutal, but it was also a lower does. This time, they just renewed the current, higher does, so my body is REALLY not on board with this. Yesterday, I might have consumed 500 calories; today is more than that, but still well below 1000. I've got a bunch of protein drinks, eggs, fruit cups, applesauce and cottage cheese. As long as I remember to only eat a tiny bit at a time, I think I can get through this.
This is also a VERY strong indication as to why i will NEVER consent to any sort of weight loss surgery: this will fade with time, or if I just don't take the next shot. WLS is permanent, and the potential for malnutrition is pretty freaking high.
*~*~*~*~
nastygram from the condo association. i hate the threats but know I'm behind.
~*~*~*~*~*
booked hotels for Asheville and Atlanta. lovely juxtaposition to the line above, eh? Mental health is health, dammit. these road trips make me happy.
*~*~*~*~
Atlanta will include a visit with Ben, crashing at his place. As long as I don't lose my head, i'll be great. we had a five hour phonecall on Sunday, and it was lovely. Well, it started out because he was still freaked over his Saturday, but after talking it out, we were all over the map and laughing more than anything else.
~*~*~*~*~
Need to sign up for health insurance. so many very sucky options. $4k, $5k, or $10k deductible? separate policy for serious illness/hospitalizations? We used to get a 1-2 page summary with the premiums, but I've yet to find that info. deadline is 10/31/23. I guess I'm logging on this weekend to figure this out.
