The Sets of TV Shows

This is an old cover from Life magazine. You may also recognize it from the background in Three's Company. I love that show. I have always loved this picture and i also loved all the plants that were on the stage. This show also inspired me to take up the hobby of collecting houseplants. The sets of Three's company and The Mary Tyler Moore show have always inspired me.

Sweet Dreams from now on...I hope

Yesterday i got my CPAP machine...finally!!! I thought that the first night, which was last night would be horrible, but i slept well. Hopefully I will have more energy throughout the day and i can get more things done now.

Lightbulb

I think i've just had an aha moment! i feel so lost because i'm still grieving the losses in my life. I need to find a way to break-free from the bondage of the things (job, health, status, etc...) i have lost and move on. BTW thanks winifred for the comments

Lost continued

I feel lost because all the goals that i set in life seem so unreachable now. i need to overcome my ilnesses. it seems as if life is passing me by. all my friends have gone on to get there master's degrees and i still only have my bachelor's. by now i thought i would at least have my doctorate. i seem frozen. since i've come down with these illnesses i feel if i took a step foward i would fail. i probably feel this way because i lost my job because of my illnesses. that was a big blow to my ego. Me terminated from my job, i never could have imagined. i used to be a super overachiever now i feel as if i'm a super loser.

Lost

Sometimes i feel so lost in life...tbc

So Hungry!!!

I'm so hungry that if i smoked another cigarette, i'll be sick. I hope mom has something great in mind for dinner.
Update: I am full now....hamburger and chicken nuggets....my dinner for tonight.

i luv audio books!!!!

I really like audio books especially ones that are read by people with lovely voices. My all time favorites are the ones read by Lisette Lecatt, who does a tremendous job reading the No.1 Detectetive Agency Series of books. Right now i'm reading "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime."

new compulsive habits

I my quest to shed pounds, i've picked up another unhealthy habit besides compulsive eating. I've started smoking!!!! I've smoked before but the habit was not as intense as it is now. Sometimes i'm smoking up to one and a half packs a day. I hope that this is temporary compulsion.

Pic of my cigarette brand for the moment, Virginia Slims Luxury Lights.

cravings

right now i'm craving something devilishly delicious, i just don't know what it is. i think i might be craving cupcakes, the only thing is that you just can't buy just one cupcake. here, where i live you have to go to a grocery store bakery and buy 6 or 12. if i buy 6 or 12 i'll probably eat 6 or 12.

Multi vitamins and appetite

I've only been taking muti vitamins for a few days and i feel like they only increase my appetite. this has happened several times with different brands. i'm going to try to stick with them for a while and hopefully these urges will pass.

Project tools

at this moment my arsenal consists of very few things. Here are some of the things that i will be using:

1. the Overeaters Anonymous program





2. The Good Mood Diet book





3. a Daily multi vitamin (at the moment i'm taking "Once daily" by Solaray)

The time has come for me to shed the pounds

I am a very large person. I admit this. I don't have a problem with my appearance. My weight just gets in the way, literally. I feel that my life would be a bit easier if I lost at least 150 pounds. it would be easier for me to fit where average sized people fit and wear clothes that average sized people wear. I will try to keep all of you abreast of my progress. wish me luck!!!
