I'm struggling right now. I've had a migraine for the last ten days, and it's just wearing me out. It's isn't a severe migraine; I can do most things, but the pain is constant, the exhaustion is terrible, and I feel continuously ill. I've missed four days of work, and I have a huge project due on the 15th. I'm starting to get panicky and depressed, and of course all I want to eat is sugar and pizza. So far I've given in to the sugar but not the pizza. I can gain four pounds overnight from pizza.
My doctor wants me to come in for daily IVs until we can break this migraine, but until he gets my insurance to approve it, there's nothing I can do but wait. I'm trying to stay strong, but somehow I assumed that eating better and losing weight would help my headaches, not make them worse.

Losing 2.5 kg a Week

The weight is still dripping off. I'm trying to make sure I'm eating enough every day, but I've totally lost interest in food. Very over-tired. The world just isn't designed around people who work third shift. I work all weekend, but maybe I can at least get some sleep without having to go to appointments at one in the afternoon, which is the middle of the night for me. This tiredness is not making concentration easy.

Not sure what's going on with my weight. I've eaten really badly the last couple of days and somehow lost two pounds. Might be the steroids I'm on for the migraine I've had for the last six days are causing it, although steroids usually make me gain weight, not lose.
Regardless, I'm feeling very happy. Not just about the weight loss, but about how I'm keeping up with this huge project at work, which I have less than three weeks to complete. And things are really good at home. Is it possible to lose weight out of happiness?
I've been in therapy for a while (read: 15 years), and I've started working on an art therapy project to help me let go of some of the bad things that have happened to me. I'm making simple quilt blocks to represent the major losses and trials I've gone through. I can't explain why, but finishing each block makes me really happy. It's like, okay, I've honored that, I've made a record of it, now I can let it go. Each week I take a new block into therapy and we talk about it.
Can emotional letting go lead to physical letting go? It's an interesting idea.
UPDATE: My boyfriend thinks I'm losing so fast because I've started eating every four or five hours. I used to be terrible about going for ten or twelve hours at a time without food. Now I'm eating really regularly.
