Weight back down ,8 lbs but still got a way to get back 164. FBG was up too so I know the routine I must eat so back to that and not going to be changing it. As DH#2 used to say, "if it ain't broke don't fix it". I'm eating to have stronger immune system.

It is getting warmer for a few days. It was nice to be able to wear sandals Monday as I seem to walk better in them. Not much happening today. DH is the cook today and tomorrow... tilapia today and steak tomorrow since I will have lab draw as well as my CT Scan. I had cinnamon apple oatmeal for breakfast. I think that will be my brunch for a while.

Still have exercises to get done. I think I did too many too fast yesterday so will spread it out through the day as I usually do.

Carol Sue I've been taking Pepcid at night at bedtime. Have you taken it through the day as well? I decided to take one this morning before I ate and it seemed to take the edge off of whatever was going on yesterday. Hope all is going well for you.

Have a good day.

Trish,, what dose are you taking of Pepcid? I take 20mg at night and occasionally at other times. Maybe you could switch to 10 mg and take it twice a day.

Sleep good, scale still bouncing,up .4. 179.2. I'm sick of this, but am I sick enough of it to do what needs to be done.

DH wants to go to the casino but freezing rain is predicted so I said no. He said thats not til midnight but I heard earlier. I just dont want to take a chance. Why risk it?

I dont know whats for dinner. Im tired of all this.

Carol Sue I take the 20 mg Pepcid pill. The directions say 2 pills can be taken within 24 hrs. I will either switch and take it in the morning or continue to take it at night and take in the morning or during the day only as needed.

My eating has been good today. I forgot to take my morning pills so I took them with dinner and had a small snack take the dinner ones at snack time. I usually do that when I go for doctor's appointments. I just might start taking them that way all the time.

Carol Sue I can understand the frustration you feel. I know that I could do better if I did keto/low carb, but I just can't do it. I guess I don't want it bad enough. How I wish I had never stopped doing Atkins when I did it years ago. Once I got off, I was never able to get back on it. I've heard many people say the same thing. I felt great when I did it, but just can't make myself do it.

I know your DH was disappointed that you didn't go to the casino today, but with the threat of bad weather, I wouldn't have wanted to go either. I think you made the right decision.

Weight still bouncing which is fine as long as it doesn't continue to go up. FBG 103 and bp 114/59 so that is good. Nothing new going on here today. I hope everyone has a good day.

Trish,Ive been reading a out Berberine and I .ight take it. Do you still take it.

Yes, I still take it.

Ok. I wondered because it says it helps with inflammarion and also cancer. It mentioned colon cancer but not ovarian.

We are at the casino. He wanted to come. We never did get the freezing rain yesterday. He says he doesnt like Friday because he cant get a machine he likes.

I plan on doing a lot of reading.

Well, I dont think DH will ever go to the casino on a Thursday again!

I guess I had a good day, but not sure as I didn't keep up with tracking everything. I've got to go to bed early since I have to get up early in the morning for my CT scan and lab. We will get pizza on the way home. No store tomorrow and we will both probably sleep during the afternoon.

Carol Sue I'm sure your DH will go to casino whenever he can go. Bless his heart, he can't help himself.

I thought I got weighed yesterday but its not in my app and I didnt post it here. Today its 178.8 which is the same as Wednesday. So no loss,but Im glad it didnt go up. We didnt eat dinner yesterday so thats probably why it stayed down.


I'm hungry for pork chops again. I ordered them at Tx Roadhouse. I dont know what they marinate them in but they are good. I got the 2 piece but only ate 1, then brought the second one home and ate it the next day. It was only $3 more to get the second pork chop.


Im reading articles I have saved on my tablet. I keep getting a message that I've run out of room on my tablet so Ive started delwting things that no longer interest me. And I'm reading things, then deleting them. I dont really like deleting things because sometimes I start to think about them and want to go back and read again.


I have a certain spot where I sit and read at the casino. Yesterday I sat next to DH for a while. This blonde woman stopped and was talking to him. She did say Hello to me. After she left I asked who she was. He said "She talks to me all the time. Shes after me!" So he has a girlfriend at the casino. Maybe thats why he wont go by himself. Hes safe if I'm there with him. His wedding ring got too tight and he doesnt wear it anymore, so I think some women notice that. And since I rarely sit with him they think hes alone. He said she talks,about what machines are hitting the best.

Carol Sue I also like reading articles about things. I haven't read anything lately about berberine. I need to look it up and read what they have to say about it now. I found an article on our oncology website about the different meds and learned more about the medicine I get every 21 days. DH doesn't like for me to look them up, but it helps me to know that some of the side effects I experience are normal and nothing to worry about. Example, I know that Lisinopril makes me cough. I often have wondered how you can have a runny nose one moment and suddenly stuffiness but no cold or just an allergy symptom. I read last night that it is caused by the infusion I get.

Weight was up a bit and these little bumps up could be gains. I need to get more serious about how I eat. FBG was 103 and bp was excellent for me. Not up to 120/80 but not extremely low like it was for years before I had cancer.

Lab and scan done and DH and I both are exhausted. I woke up an hour before the clock went off at 7 so I got up before it went off. In fact, DH is taking a nap now and I am going to join him. Didn't track today. We had pizza for Brunch. Not sure I will eat anything else today.

I hope your day is going well.

Good sleep. But only 6 hours. I was up til 1 am reading. Scale is down .2. If I would lode .2 every day I would be losing 6 lbs a month, which would suit me just fine. But I dont. It is,what it is.

I think we are going to Walmart today. There are a few things we need and I think bad weather is coming. Im going to try to get my G refilled but I dont think I can. Too soon,but Im almost out because I take extra. I wish I could stop eating carbs.

Weight is up today but it is my fault and I'm not happy with myself. I ate junk. Even FBG was 112 today. Back OP today. I think fasting for scan makes me think I can eat junk. I know not to buy that food anymore.6

My oatmeal was good this morning although something was missing. I may not have added enough allulose or may need to mix some Stevia with it. I don't eat a lot of allulose because it makes me feel too full... bloated.

This is strange. I called the Walmart automated system for my G. The answer was "This will be filled on March 6, is this good?" I said No. Then they said, this will be filled and available tomorrow after 4 pm, and I said Yes. It was not to be filled until March, then they just changed it to tomorrow?? I will have to be careful to make sure this 90 day supply lasts me until my appointment with the new doctor in April. The allulose doesnt seem to be doing anything for me now..

We went to Walmart and didnt buy much but spent $98. Eggs are over $5 now.. I guess eveeything we bought was expensive.

Carol Sue That is interesting how you were able to get the G. I'm glad you got it.

Weight has been inching up, but now is time to get back to eating less carbs. Weight this morning was 170.6. FBG was 106 and bp was low. I think it was 105/59. So time to get things back under control. I had 2 eggs with cheese and bacon on a protein tortilla. My carbs will be less than 100 and fiber will be 20 g.

Hope everyone has a good day.
