My weight was the same 171.2 lbs again today. For me that means my weight is stable. Not sure how it will be by the next WI day because DH turned the leftover beef roast into a stew and my DS DD wants to cook for us Thursday and bring us food. It will be good, just not low carb. She eats wholefoods woe. I hope she makes her taco soup DS raves about if she cooks.
FBG was 101 so looks like allulose is working for that. I am happy with how it works because we had Chinese food and I'm surprised at how good my bs, weight and bp was. I can't remember what that was but it was good. Got to get some exercises done.

Sleep was very good. No Benedryl, so I think im weaned off it.
Scale was up to 180.2. This has to stop!
My FBG was better today but still not considered good.
Yesterday we went to the casino and he lost again. i wish he would get tired of this but he doesnt seem to care. He refuses to go to the other casino because of the 1 hour drive home. But they pay out better,at least they did before. He likes being home in 25 minutes.
My weight was up to 173.4 lbs. Allulose doesn't seem to be working to lower weight, but is fine for FBG. Can't remember wat it was but I think it was 106 or 107. BP is always good these days.
Eating this week hasn't been a lot of food, but not low carb. DH made such a large pot of stew that we have at least 2 more days of eating it. He says he will eat it and I'm thinking about either having breakfast for Dinner or making an egg salad for my dinner. DN is coming over this afternoon, but not bringing any food. I suggested she bring us some of the taco soup when she makes it again and she plans to make it next week and bring it. I got up nauseated this morning so she may not come today. She works in a Nursing therapy home and she doesn't need to get sick and doesn't need to \ take anything to her Mom if I have virus.
Trish, do you think the Allulose is having a poor effect on you, causing the fatigue!? I dont notice any problems but no improvement either.
Otherwise, no changes. All calm.
Carol Sue I don't know if it caused me so tired or not. I do know that it caused me to have horrible stomach cramps and constipation. It may have caused me to have headaches as well. I wonder if it caused the back pain I had too as it is better. I think my tiredness was from the tramadol that I took at bedtime. Not taking it tonight so will see.
Weight 173.8 lb. Today I think I feel good enough to get back OP. FBG and bp is good to. Slept good and still sleepy but up because I talk to my daughter this morning. Not sure I will hear from my son tomorrow as I think he is working all weekend.
I ended up eating the stew again yesterday and my weight is up another lb to 174.8. I'm back to my bacon and eggs for breakfast this morning and going back to taking the collagen in my coffee. I will have the mandarin orange. Will have my salad and yogurt dessert with a pork chop for my protein. Finish the day with a protein shake for supper. That rounds out to just over 1000 calories. I told DH that I would go on carnivore for a while if it wasn't so expensive.
I did wake up early and got up feeling human again. So that is good.

Im surprised I did not post yesterday. I have no idea what could be screwingbup my head these days!.😊
Sleep has been normal. Good considering I stopped taking the Benedryl.
Scale has been down 1 lb for 2 days in a row, 178.6. Blood sugar was down a bit today but still not good. I get bloodwork done this week for the new doctor and its going to be terrible! I dread seeing my A1c.
My other issue is still going well, depends on which side you are on.

Weight was down a lb today which I kind of figured it would be. FBG and bp was good. I slept good last night in fact I think I slept straight through the night until 6:30 this morning before I had to go potty. Went back to bed and slept until almost 9 am. DN and her Hubby came and brought us a taco soup and visited a bit. We will eat the soup tomorrow instead of take out when we go to the store.
I am feeling better and was actually able to do my exercises. Can't say that I'm doing low carb or any particular diet. Just eating healthy and when I'm hungry but trying to make it healthy eating.

Hardly any sleep last night. Too many things on my mind.
Scale down .4 today to 178.2. Very slow progress.
Blood sugar up a bit.
I have not been eating enough protein. I have to get more meat in my diet. DH doesnt care if he never eats meat it seems. I have to start cooking dinner more so he will eat meat.

I didnt realize my doctor appointment was today. I thought it was Thursday. So they called today to reschedule. They sent my bloodwork request to the lab so I can just walk in tomorrow and get iy done and my new appointment is May 1. That will work. I know my bloodwork will be bad but then I can work on it for next time. i will ask him if I canctake prescription fish oil and maybe he will change my diabetes meds.
No changes. I weigh the same as yesterday and FBG was 101. BP was a little high for me. I think it was 129/65.
Didn't eat the taco soup today as DH wanted to get McDs after we left the grocery store. I think DH is afraid he won't like the taco soup. I will eat it tomorrow for dinner. Right now I'm ready for a nap.
Carol Sue I hope your blood work is better than you think it will be.
