Nanbrey's Journal, 24 Aug 23

I had one really bad day! My medical aid didn’t cover my chronic meds this month, and now I have to wait till pay day to get them. Because this month had some very unexpected costs, I have about R5 in my bank account (lucky for me I have a well stocked freezer, so I could still feed my family).

But I feel like cr@p to say the very least, and on top of that, going cold turkey on your antidepressants messes with your head.

So this evening I binged! It was pretty healthy keto friendly food, but I still ate way too much.

Lucky for me, there should be some money coming in tomorrow, so hopefully I can get all my meds tomorrow. It will take a few days to get back to feeling better. But it can’t come soon enough!

I am going to forgive myself this week’s inevitable weight gain, because it was really not my fault. But that does not mean I am going to stop trying

Dctors usually have free samples that they can give you in an emergency. Good luck.

Sorry to hear I know what being without meds can do ,,I do hope it gets better and that tomorrow will be a bit brighter

Thanks everyone supportive. I should probably not have posted this here, but was in a very vulnerable place last night and had nowhere and no one else I could talk to. Suppose I just needed a hug, even if I know I was stupid. The support got me through a dark place. Thank you.

Nothing about you or your post was stupid. Sometimes letting off steam is very much necessary. Healthier than bottling it up. 🤗

Don’t beat yourself up about a bad day or even a bad week, it is human to go through such days and it’s ok. I love your spirit of getting back up & going again💞

Hi, just checking in... Did you manage to get the medication? Are you doing better this week?

Hello Aboutlvg, yes, thank you so much! I am all better. I got my meds just the next day, and I am feeling my old self again. Did you manage to find a low calorie sauce that you like? I have been trying a few myself, but haven’t found just the right one. I must say the carb smart sauces aren’t to bad, and their instant soups are quite nice, and I sometimes use them as a sauce over my vegetables. I do like the greek yogurt trick that the one lady in your comments suggested though. Hope you are well?

Glad to hear 🥳. I have tried most of what was suggested and so glad that my food is no longer too dry 😁

Aboutlvg, that’s awesome. I haven’t read all of the comments on your post about the sauce, but I think I should, and also try a few of the suggestions. It’s good to have a few tricks up your sleeve when it comes to sauces
