New Year's Resolution Goals!

It's something I've done for a few years now because I think it makes more sense than the traditional way. Today is my 36th Birthday and, yearly, on this day, I generally make whatever resolutions I plan to make for the year ahead. I feel that I'm in the fortunate position, this year, to just stay on track and keep working toward the goals that I have already set. My course is layed out for me and I know with hard work, dedication and a little patience with myself I will be in a fantastic place in a year and during the year I will continue to feel better about my self and will enhance my joy and zest for life in all aspects.

The few things I will work on are...

1: Being patient with my weight loss and looking for positive signs of improvement rather than focusing on lack of progress in other areas.

2: Try harder to value my worth and to remember that I am worthy of being happy. I want to approach certain social situations with more confidence and be aware that if things don't work out the way I hope it's not the end of the world or a comment on my self worth.

3. Organize, Organize, Organize!

4. Attempt to be a better brother and son and friend. (there's always more we can to do include our family and good friends)

5. Plan more seriously for my financial future.

I don't expect to start a resolution revolution here. This is just how I do it and you can adopt it if you like.

In other news. I had my appt with Dr Wong last Thursday. He's my new sleep disorder specialist and while he said that I don't have ALL of the traditional Symptoms of Narcolepsy he did say I have enough of them including some variant symptoms that he would prescribe the recommended medication for Narcolepsy and order more conclusive tests. I'll also be going back to the sleep lab to have tests to calibrate my bi-PAP machine for my sleep apnea (bi-pap and c-pap machines blow air in to your airway while you sleep so that you don't stop breathing....fun huh)

The medication I'm taking is called Provigil

For info Please visit www.Provigilweb.com

(From Provigilweb.com)
A Different Kind of Stimulant

Unlike caffeine and older prescription stimulants that affect the entire central nervous system which in turn leads to jitteriness, insomnia and prolonged bouts of sleep to make up for lost sleep, Provigil only seems to effect the part of the brain that keeps you awake. A person's sleep patterns will usually revert back to normal after the effects of Provigil wear off. U.S. clinical trials have also demonstrated that Provigil is less likely to cause nervousness or withdrawal-like symptoms.



I started taking it on Friday and will be increasing from 1 to 3 tablets daily by thursday and after a few days of that I'll let you all know how I feel. As it is I can already tell that my daytime alertness is a little better but it does feel like it's chemically induced...and I'm still not sleeping that well at night, however When I finally do get to sleep...(sometimes as late as 4am or 6am...I can sleep for about 3 1/2 hours so that's about 1 1/2 hours more than before. If I can start getting to sleep around 1am and sleep for 5 hours I'll be back in charge of my life again and then watch out world...haHaahAahhhaaa! *cough*

Ok...so that's about it for now. I'll be starting my 365day picture project Today and will post the link to my Photo host in a couple of days. Also I'll be weighing in again around the end of the month because I was trying to get another 10 lbs off (no worries if it doesn't happen). I'll let you know. Also let me know if you think I should add another counter that shows actual Fat loss as well as over all weight loss. I was thinking about it.

Have a good day all, and a great New Year! =0)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SEAN!!!!

Lots of hugs and positive thoughts headed your way!

Fascinating about the sleep therapy and medicine. I am so pleased to hear you had a little more sleep.

I relisted the painting by the way, will keep re-listing it till it sells. So far 30 people have looked at it in 24 hours, that is promising.

You're a beautiful person, and so happy to have met you, have a wonderful day.

Giant hug

Happy Birthday. Hope you have many many more and lighter in weight but larger in spirit. Hey have you ever heard of the show "The biggest Loser"? It's one of my favorites. It gives me so much motivation. Maybe you should try and go on that show. You should see the difference those trainers do on everyone. Bob one of the trainers is awesome. Check it out, it really is a great show.

Hey Sean,
Gotta tell ya that I loved your blog when I discovered it from One Red Paperclip. Your idea for losing weight and posting about your struggles and wins was fresh and interesting. Your writing style is also very engaging, and I looked forward to reading your news, diet, workouts, etc. You grew to feel like a friend. However, I'm feeling like the friend you don't like anymore. You rarely post, even though you post about feeling bad about not posting, and promising to post more often, etc. The net result is that I don't visit your blog as often. Most times I check, there is nothing new. I think this is your longest stretch without writing anything at all - so I'm hoping you're alright. We still care about you out here, and hope that you get back to posting more often.

Hey Sean, this is Jacob Walker Thunderpants. Miss you on LJ, but I catch part of your stuff with a feed :-)

I've researched Provigil a lot, and have used it before, and have found it to be very good, especially with the low risk of addiction and few side effects.
