Ups and downs - Highs and lows

I just hit something and erased 3 paragraphs. As much as this Netbook is convenient...this pisses me off! I'm better off at the desktop. (And no...it wasn't saved in drafts...I looked)

Anyway...I was saying that this is wearing me out. I am having a hard time eating. I went from being able to eat sweet rolls, a whole pizza, huge portions of cheesecake...are you noticing a pattern here? All sweets - All carbs. And I was still hungry. Now...I am having a hard time eating period as everything makes me sick to my stomach.

Once I start to eat, and I make myself eat...it's not quite so bad. Last night I had some steak and carrots. Probably not a smart thing on those carrots. My bedtime reading was 295. This morning it was 215...then I slept...then at lunch it was 250. I missed a snack. I have got to eat these snacks at a regular time....without fail.

I found a food log template on line yesterday and printed out a few so I can keep a compete record of what I eat. Husband has prepared several containers of snacks so I just have to 'open and eat'. This is a tremendous help. He is pretty close to irritating in making sure I eat at the proper times and log my info. He is purchasing sugarless everything and cooking like a demon. I am very fortunate. Don't tell him I said that.

I am also seriously missing some foods. Not necessarily really bad since I am so nauseous, but no fruit is a killer. And cereal. I love cereal. My 'last meal' was 2 bowls of Frosted Flakes!! I will positively stick to this eating plan...but I will count the days till I can eat an orange!! Or drink an orange!!

I wanted to post this now since I didn't feel well last night and I need to write this stuff down so I don't forget it! Will hopefully be back later...

Thanks so much for reading...and caring...

  1. Brew up some peppermint teas, that will help with digestion if the ginger isnt working so well. Also try green beans (with nothing on them, sorry but they must be naked!!! LOL) they sometimes help to satisfy. Also be sure that you take a Zantac just before your pill (like 20 min) that is to coat your stomach and not make you as sick. I have tried these hints and they have helped. But the green beans DO NOT taste like chocolate!! Hang in there by your fingertips and then leave your claw marks on the way down!!! I love you and miss you so much.
