Breaking Bubbles: May 2010
http://breakingbubbles.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. The Sugar Monster Strikes Again. To lay off the sugar. I've been improving on my intake- far less runs are being made to Cub Foods for their sinfully rich (and overly processed) and tasty brownies- but I'm not the best at it yet. Take for example, Starbucks new mini doughnuts. The double chocolate doughnuts are fantastic- and quite addictive. For the last few weeks, they have been my little "sugar rush" a few times a week. So, I need to stop allowing myself these "treats," right?

Breaking Bubbles: February 2010
http://breakingbubbles.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 22, 2010. Another Sunday in the Kitchen. First, I would like to note that after six months of procrasinating, denial, and just plain forgetting, I finally updated my blogger profile to reflect that I am now : gulp: thirty. You know what though? But on to the food, right? For this week I made recipes out of. Doesn't the kale and chard look amazing once it starts to hit the heat? You just don't get more vibrant coloring than that! Sunday, February 21, 2010. At first, because of the vodka, ...

Breaking Bubbles: September 2010

Thursday, September 30, 2010. New Discoveries and Set Backs. Before I start today's post, I just want to say that I make no claims that this blog is anything but self-indulgent ramblings of the issues with my health. So, bear with me as I get some things off my chest- I don't own a journal, never have, and this is closest I have to it. :). Full Blown. Meltdown. Something had to get out. Cold and I sleep with thick socks and blankets even in the summer. The good thing is that the diet she is recommended i...

Breaking Bubbles: October 2010
http://breakingbubbles.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 12, 2010. For the first time in a while, I am listening to my body. I mean. Listening. Not psycho-analyzing, not obsessing, not making assumptions, but really listening to what is happening with it. And I made a revelation. Doc had it figured out before I did. My stomach was not happy with me. I could not have been more wrong! First, I added in a digestive enzyme supplement. This was important to help break down the food. Then I decided I needed to add in something to heal the st...I rem...

Breaking Bubbles: July 2009
http://breakingbubbles.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 26, 2009. Not quite with it lately. I feel an overwhelming amount of, what I would call, "phantom" stress lately. It's been manifesting itself every which way and the result is that I am completely. Exhausted- mentally, emotionally, physically. To cope I have, as I always use to, been turning to food, which is not good. Last week, I had more Starbucks than I have in the last few months combined and by the end of the week I was drinking venti. Friendly, and less caffeinated. It is surprisingl...

Breaking Bubbles: Ugh
http://breakingbubbles.blogspot.com/2010/10/ugh.html
Thursday, October 7, 2010. 3 hours of sleep and a full day of work ahead. Ugh. I really want to rip that darn GB out after last night! Not), and finally tried to lay back down around 2:30. Still enough pain that I couldn't sleep. Drank some apple juice with stone dissolving stuff, laid back down and waited for the pain to subside. Most attacks spread around my whole right side and are really severe, but this one wasn't. My body is failing at the young age of 31 and I won't survive to see my 35th birthday.

Sunday, February 6, 2011. It has been a long while. and yet, here I am again. The urge to write and share is strong again and sometimes I just want a place to get the thoughts and stories in my head out. So, cliff notes version of the past months. gallbladder removed, recovery sucks. Talk about something that causes a panic attack in me. Just thinking about not being in control makes my chest feel tight and my eyes well up. It makes me feel like I need to scream, grab on to anything I can, and ki...My na...

Breaking Bubbles: August 2009
http://breakingbubbles.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2009. As a follow up to my last post I need to share with you a recipe from. It is called ". But I think of it as gallbladder soup. It is recommended to help avoid gallbladder pain and relieve pain. Not to be used when in the middle of an attack, it is more useful to help clean out the system and ease the "load" on the digestive system. I add extra water to the recipe and a pinch of salt. The red light when on in my head. I was excited for her apparent returned health and thought perha...
