trying to get excited about my trip
I am trying to get excited about my 5days to California. I hate to tell you, but I am not one bit excited. In fact, I am dreading it.
The airline ticket was bought over a month ago. The Hotel and Rental Car reserved this last weekend. It is all in motion, but I wish it wasn't.
Why do you ask?
Because I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired. I mean it. You think I am kidding, I am not. Don't get me wrong, I am not backing out. It is just not fun to think of being around a bunch of people when you feel like this. Do you have any strength you can send me? I am in desperate need of it.
The only part I am looking forward to, is the opportunity to sleep in...but with a 2hour time zone difference, I bet there won't be much of that happening.
Ready or not...here we go!

Happy Mother's Day to my Mom's
to Mema and Auntie Con: you have been more than anyone could ask for in a Mom, a better replacement (yes, I said that), one that is real and true...you mean the world to me! Neither of you know all you have done since I moved to Texas in 1997 to inspire, encourage, support, promote the good in me, help me work through my ongoing faults, and I love you both with all my heart!!!

a diet or a lifestyle?
May 2011, I saw my doctor and though I had made previous changes to my diet, we discussed and I learned that it truly was not enough to improve my health to the degree that I needed and wanted to. I decided to be very disciplined and make those changes. I have gotten lots of questions about "What are you doing?" since loosing 26+ pounds since that time frame. Consequently, I have decided to blog about it.
What is my secret? It isn't one.
What one thing am I doing? It is a combination of things.
What do I believe contributes to my success at this? Honestly, the discipline and determination to make it happen.
1. Drink water. As soon as I wake up, I drink a full glass of water.
2. Walk every morning. I started with 1 mile and have increased it and how walk 2-4 miles every day. On average it is 2-2.5miles or 25 minutes. I drink another glass of water upon my return.
3. Eat within 1 hour of waking up.
4. Remove all forms of caffeine. I currently have one cup of Hot Tea (typically Green Tea) in the morning. This means that yes, though I absolutely LOVE coffee, I have removed it from my diet.
5. Continue to not eat Wheat and Sugar. I started this 2-3 years ago and have felt better. Does that mean I never eat it? No, if somewhere I can't pick my own food, then yes, I eat wheat, but outside of that, yes, I avoid it. Does that mean I am crazy and avoid all dressings and sauces? No, but be reasonable and avoid them if you can and if you do use them, use them at a very minimum amount. If I have any sweet stuff in my tea or oatmeal, it is honey or Raw/Natural sugar, but very, very, very limited amounts. I have not had a dessert in I can't tell you how long!
6. Drink as much water as possible. More than the recommended 8-8oz glasses a day. I strive for 12.
7. Eat snacks between meals. This doesn't happen too much for me, but I aim to make it as much as I can.
8. Add another form of exercise. I currently am doing Yoga 1-3 times a week. I sometimes go for a short jog or run, at my own pace, sometimes in a stop and start kinda way (jog to the corner, walk to the next, jog to the next), around the track near my house.
9. Take vitamins. Don't be concerned with what brand and type, just take them. You are probably like me and have tons of them in your pantry. Use them. Research the ones that are right for you later when you have used what you have! If you don't, keep it simple and to about 5 of them: a multiple Vitamin, VitaminC, Omega3s, VitaminB, and whatever else you might need or have a deficiency in.
10. Get plenty of sleep. Your body needs more sleep then you think it does to be efficiently running. I aim to be in bed at 8.30pm. I have the alarm set for 7.30am, but if I want to get up before that, then fine, if not, I am up then so that I can walk and eat and be ready for work in my home office at 9am.
When I provide a list of these things, I get one of two responses...it is either, is that all? Yup, that is all. Or it is, I could never do that, I love my soda, I love sugar, or I love bread. Yup, most people do...but I don't like how I feel on it and so I have to tell you, I don't!!! The discipline is worth it, but you have to desire to make it happen.
You won't see results for 3-4 months, I didn't and I had been "eating healthy" for some time. It does take time to get used to not eating wheat and sugar and to not crave it. If you want encouragement, I will be here to support you. Start with one of the 10 items and believe me, you will be starting new habits.
Remember, it takes 27 Days to form a new habit!

a hard day
Today has been a hard day.
I am ready for the soft fluffy covers to envelope me, right up under the jaw, the cushy pillow to sink my head into. Ready block out all my thoughts. Ready to not hear any noise. Ready to escape.
Today was my scheduled appointment with my doctor to obtain my Adrenal Fatigue Test results so we could know what progress has been made. The last one I had done was last June. With various symptoms and things I have been experiencing the last two months or so, my doctor felt we needed an update to know where to go with things from here, what treatment changes need to be made, to help define what options we have and how to work with the situation. I was secretly truly hoping for improvement, even though I no longer feel the benefit of my medications and supplements, my exercise routine no longer energizes me, I am fatigued beyond words, frequently in tears, and am at a point where work no longer excites me.
Let me tell you that my doctor is very kind. He listens to me, my body, what I describe and thinks things through. He doesn't just give me a pat answer. He lets me know when something doesn't sit well with him and why. He tells me what he is thinking and what he wants achieved and what the plan of action will be from here. I have been seeing him since 2007 and though I wish we were further along in the steps to recovery, I am grateful for his continued help, kindness and support. He always closes the visit with "It was my pleasure." He is a rare doctor.
I was the first appointment of the day, so no long (very long) waiting spells. My doctor showed me the results. I was disappointed. They were not good. My levels are flat, very low, significantly lower then my "low point" last year. The starting point on the graph shows me nearly in half of where I was last year. I told him that though I am not feeling well, I truly was not expecting this. Don't get me wrong, there is a sense of comfort and encouragement to know that you are feeling is "real", you are not imaging it, making it up, you have real cause for your symptoms.
[Let me interject, it is very hard for me to discuss my medical situation. If you know my home life, you know why. If don't, let me just simply say that my mom was a hypochondriac in every sense of the word and she "never" felt well, "always" had issues, it was "all about her", etc. On top of that, I was raised as "the sick child", and though yes, I was the sickest of all my siblings with frequent ear infections, tonsillitis, rashes and skin sensitivities and allergy issues, there were other aspects made out to be worse than reality and I wasn't allowed to go outside, participate in normal exercise, etc, etc, etc. All these things are baggage that I have to work through and not run from even though I am NOT my mom. Don't act like my mom. Don't think like my mom.]
Back to my doctor's visit...
My doctor said that the results clearly show why I am not sleeping at night. He said, we have to get you sleeping well so you will be rested and feel better, until we do, you won't. [I know this.] He said, Misty, you are like me...you Live to Work...you don't Work to Live. I said you are right and burst into tears. We discussed my upbringing [nothing was ever good enough, I was always driven to produce more, more, more, work harder and longer than the previous day], the fact that I truly do love to work [you may think me strange, but I do!], how I feel when I "take breaks" [guilty, useless, etc], that whether I am self employed or an employee I work just as hard, just as long, just as much [if you know me well or have for very long, you know this is true!], and more. He let me know that he believes this has gone on so long that I am depressed. I couldn't argue. We discussed additional diet changes over and above my already healthy diet. We discussed what I am currently doing, what we will continue and a few things we will discontinue. We discussed additional concerns from symptoms I am experiencing and he has ordered more tests to rule a few things out based off of concerns he has that these things are signs of other issues that must be looked at [I don't feel privy to go into details here]. If we were only dealing with Adrenal Fatigue, that would be one thing, but we are not. I will followup in June with him again after an X-Ray, two sets of Lab work, and an appointment with a specialist.
Am I scared? No. Concerned? Yes. Beyond frustrated? Absolutely.
Though I have made heaps of progress in many aspects of feeling stressed, being stressed, and how I react to stress, the fact is that my body is stressed [even if I don't "feel" it] and I am going to be forced to make more changes. Exactly what these changes will be, I don't know yet...my brain hurts today to think about it.
Right now, I just want to cry.

Surprise Visit Thoughts
I wrote about a Surprise Visit here. I want to write some more about how this affected me...and why.
I didn't grow up in a home where things were done simply out of love for someone, without an ulterior motive attached. Without rebuke or condemnation if it wasn't done just so. I am not used to being treated kindly, simply because someone loves you and wants to be with you. The very sentence I just wrote makes me cry. Literally. I can't help it. It is hard to explain my feelings, knowing someone drove 90minutes and hung 120minutes out in the parking lot just to surprise me, see me and want to spend time with me...simply because they want to!!! For NO OTHER reason, then they want to.
If you haven't experienced what I have, you probably can't relate. It probably won't even make sense to you. You probably think me crazy for feeling strange, out of place, a bit confused, uneasy, guilty, etc. I honestly don't feel sorry for you, I am glad you haven't experienced what I have. I wouldn't want you to feel alone as I have. To overcome those feelings of thinking someone wants something out of you, expects something out of you, will retaliate if things don't go according to their terms, will only love you if you perform and meet expectations, only wants you around for a purpose on their agenda, etc is a challenge I have faced for a lot of my life and probably will continue to. I spent 20years in that environment and now 15 years out. You don't break those habits and ways of thinking overnight, even if you try desperately (and want to desperately) get rid of them, it is a process.
It takes time to understand the feelings you feel, why and how to place them. It takes working through life's experiences, reflecting on them, evaluating what is the truth. It takes time to learn how to think, learn how to respond, learn new expectations. It takes time to realize not everyone treats you the same way that you were treated in your childhood. Many times it is an act of sheer faith to not believe what you have always felt, and assume someone else will take advantage of you and treat you the same way. It takes a heart, willing to be open and not close a door out of fear. Even if you naturally want to run, far, fast and keep a distance because of how you feel and dread feeling.
It is a step by step growing process to learn to be loved. Learn to accept being loved with no strings attached. Learn to appreciate being loved. Learn to not feel guilty for being loved. Learn to love being loved.
I'm still learning...but I thank you Uncle Gib & Auntie Con for loving me and helping me learn. I love you both a bunch!

thought for the day...
Luke 18:1 tells us we should always pray and not give up.
II Corinthians 4:16 tells us we should remember that we are being renewed inwardly day by day.
Galatians 6:9 tells us that we should focus on the harvest that will come if we do not give up.
Ephesians 3:12-13 tells us that we should find comfort in the amazing ability we have to approach God
with freedom and confidence.
II Thessalonians 3:13 tells us that we should just keep doing what is right.
And finally Hebrews 12:3 tells us that we should think about Jesus and what He endured on our behalf. Nothing we are going through will compare with that.
These are a few verses that help me to keep things in perspective when I lose heart and I hope they will help you, too. We have to have resources to encourage us on the journey!

strength [for today]
Sometimes I don't feel my blog is aptly named. Sometimes I don't feel very courageous. Sometimes I don't like the journey. Sometimes I just want to quit and give up. Sometimes I don't understand why God feels my shoulders are so strong. Sometimes I don't know why He thinks I can do this (even with His help!). Yes, sometimes I don't know what to say either.
I am going through a lot right now. I won't lie, and I won't tell you it is easy or that I am "doing well" with it all. Some days are better than others. I have to remember God has a plan. I don't. He knows. I don't. I don't have answers. He does, even if he never provides them to me. He does.
These verses are my daily review right now.
Psalm 29:11
The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.
Psalm 105:4
look to the LORD and his strength
1 Thessalonians 3:13
May he strengthen your heart
