Not a good day at the casino. I told DH I wasn't going anymore and he said he won't do anything for me either. This should be interesting.
I still don't understand the 24 hour urine test, but I guess I don't have to know. I don't understand what info they get from it. And I don't know why you have protein in the urine. I don't think its caused by eating protein.
Carol Sue I don't understand about the protein in the urine either. At this point I don't think it has anything to do with what I am doing... eating or not. I think it has something to do with the treatment medicine. So I will continue to eat as healthy as I know how. I just know that if the 24 hr test ever reaches 2000 that I have to come off the infusions to give it a chance to come back down to normal.
Sorry your casino trip didn't go well. I think his attitude shows how addicted he is.

I thought I posted but its not here.
Scale still 177 but only .4. So down a little. Ill take it!
DH is making dinner. He bought a rotisserie chicken,is making mashed potatoes and a vegetable. He makes good mashed potatoes. I'm not real hungry. Im just lounging in my recliner but I have lots to do!
I got the rest of my test results on my portal and things actually looks improved. Of course, I still have the results of the 24 hour test before I will know if I can have the infusion Friday. I'm just thankful that the results are improving although they are improving slowly.
According to the test results, I have probably cut my protein back to much. My protein reading was just barely within the normal limits so I don't think I need to cut it back anymore. I am so thrilled with the fact that so many of lab work are getting better.
DH got us a small pizza for dinner on his way home from taking my 24 hr test to oncology. I can't believe we ate the whole thing. So the rest of the day my eating will stay within 1500 calories. I will know more when I see my oncologist but from what DH and I understand things look pretty good.
A new poster might need to be directed to over here:

I’m trying my best but it’s hard, I’m known to self sabotage. At least I’m aware of it now, but still 😫 I’ve lost 17lbs in 2 weeks, I know it goes fast whenever you first start. But I still have almost 100lbs to go to be considered “healthy”. I’m trying to look at this as a life style change not a diet. I’m in horrible shape, just being real. I went through a really bad depression and didn’t leave my house and barely left my bed for a few years and I packed on the pounds during that time. Now that I’m doing better and actually trying I really want to get my health together so any advise, support anything I would really appreciate. I don’t feel like I have anyone in real life to talk to about this stuff. Anyway! I hope to make some new friends. Thanks for letting me join 😊

Trish, I am so glad your test results were good! A lot of this is probably due to your recent weight loss, which is very good, and the way you are keeping up with your exercise.
I've invited Trying2change over to our thread. I'm hoping that as we learn more about her we can give her some support to change her lifestyle and lose some weight.
My calories were still too high but that's due to some bagels I have in the freezer. Carbs were also too high and sodium too. I don't want to throw xxx them out but maybe cut them in half to eat a half instead of a whole, then stop buying them.

This morning:
Scale was 178.0. Yesterday was 178.4, so down .4. Every little bit counts. I tossed and turned all night then slept deeper right before daybreak.
I have my Amazon order ready to go. I found my bottle from K2D3 and there's a few left in it so I'm taking them again and ordered the same brand. I also ordered B12 pills for under the tongue,I don't trust myself to do drops. The ones I had before were the type that starts with C which I read are not absorbed as well as the M,but the ones I ordered are the right ones. I will take the old ones until my new ones come. If neither of these help with energy then I'm back to square one. I'm tire of feeling so tired all the time.
I didn't feel great yesterday but I thought it was because I was up most of the night so I could do the 24 hr urine test. I'm nor feeling well today. Sitting in my recliner trying to get rid of a headache.
Weight was 159 lbs this morning, but FBG was up to 126 this morning which is very high for me. It was 111 yesterday and less than that the day before. I think it was from eating half the small pizza. We usually have meat on it but just got a cheese pizza this time.

I dont like meat on pizza anymore but DH still does. If I order a personal pizza for myself I get plain cheese, or just mushroom.
I walked over to the sink to wash dishes but we have no water...DH had filled the sink with soapy water so I could wash them buy not rinse. His brother said there is a water main break up on the highway. I hope they get it fixed soon. I want to wash clothes, today, too.
I'm sorry you arent feeling well. Hope it clears up.
I'm going to start a new thread for Spring/Summer but I won't close this one for a while in case our new poster trying2change comes here to post.
Folloq this link to the new thread for Spring/Summer.

Our water is finally back on. I don't want to start laundry this late so I guess I'lll do it tomorrow. I used bottled water to cook some carrots for lunch. We both love cooked carrots. He cooks them in the microwave but I prefer boiled.
I spent the day online paying bills. I set them up to be paid next week on social security day. I'm glad that's over with for the month.
DH bought meat and buns to make hamburgers, but I don't want one. I will eat something else.
I haven't eat much of anything today although I have worked at keeping myself at being hydrated. I actually am beginning to feel better so I hope I will feel like myself tomorrow since I see oncologist. Hope they get the resulrs of my 24 hr urine test so I can get my infusion done.
