I don't know
I have been mood swinging a lot lately... Most of the time I'm happy or content, but then I get depressed. I wanted to go to the hospital (mental) to run and hide. but I talked myself out of it since I wasn't suicidal and just wanted the extra attention (and I get more attention at home than inpatient (IP) so that's not worth it. I'm going to go see my mom from the 16th to the 21st when Tracy (her hubby) and his son are going to a Miami Dolphins football game, and they are driving down, so I'm just going to catch a ride with them. I have found that eating lunch has made me a lot less hungry at dinner and I don't want more more more. Today I had a protein shake for lunch. I don't eat a lot of protein, so it's not like I''m getting too much protein. I need to start walking again... I'm putting it off. I was at 226 even today... I was 230 last week. I'm tired and it's getting hard to put together a coherent message, so I'm just going to go to sleep.
