I gained 5 lbs this last week. What a bummer. I attribute it to getting back on Zyprexa. Part is water retention I would hope. It is kind of embarrassing to have been going for 4+ months and gained a total of 4.8 lbs. Today's gain was the biggest. Oh well, I wish I could just forget about weight and body image issues. But it actually something I struggled with long before I was diagnosed with sz.
I called Clairol about my brassy blondness and they told me another Clairol product (of course) that is a temporary rinse (for 28 washings.) Not entirely satisfactory, but it did tone down the brassiness a bit.
Do you find yourself sometimes making nonsensical rhyming in your head. Like the word "brassy" -- immediately I thought of sassy, classy, glassy, etc. But it isn't as bad as hearing music 24x7 which I start doing when I don't take Zyprexa. Now that is maddening.
Hmmm...time to take a nap. I can't stay awake any longer.
