Carol Sue Have you gotten back to your exercises? That would help bring the bs down. I can tell when I'm not exercising enough.

I don't think I can eat on a schedule especially follow the rules even to eat what they say starves cancer. It just makes me feel so stuffed especially with me trying to drink the fluids they want me to drink. Water and liquids make me feel stuffed before I even eat anything. I just can't put all that stuff on my belly. I am thinking about going back to IF/IE. I want to go see my sister one day this week and think I will take the fruit I bought to my niece and her DH and DBIL. I realize it is fiber they say I should eat, but I have never liked that heavy feeling in my stomach and don't think this woe is going to work for me. I think that is why I've always like low carb woe is that it doesn't make me feel stuffed.

Weight was down .2 lb. I'll take it. FBG 115 from the carbs I'm eating to get the benefits of fiber. BP is good these days. I'm glad to have a good meter that reads my true reading because I'm finding that my bp is actually normal.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Carol Sue My FBG was 116 today and 115 yesterday. I didn't exercise much last week and don't exercise on Sundays and you can see how it effects my FBG. So that is why I asked you about it. Of course, you are really more active to me anyway because you walk because you and your DH go places more than we do. Last week I was recovering from the UTI, but this week I have no excuse. I have got to get back to full swing of all my exercises.

I am going to do my best to stay between 20 and 30 g carbs each day. I am going to start using my ketone meter hoping I can get back into ketosis. I watched a Dr. Kesslering who Dr. Westman recommended. My paraphrase she doesn't promise or guarantee that keto diet cures cancer, but it does look like it could. She has a program you can do online and can ask her questions, but there is a long line to get into it. I will work toward using Dr. Westman's woe as they seem to agree on how to eat. This sounds like the best way to work with my immunotherapy. They also mention a Dr. who originally thought of using this woe to treat cancer and I want to see if I can get more info on what he say, but I can't remember his name right now. I am going to also go back to eating 2 meals with 4 to 6 hours. I really do better with a 5 to 6 hrs between meals, but is difficult to do when I have to eat around 3 pm with DH.

Weight down .4 lbs to 174.4 this morning and bp is normal. I'm really happy to know my bp is normal. Now to get my bs back down in the 90s.

I hope everyone will have a blessed day.

Scale today was 176.4. Thats down from yesterday but up from earlier over the weekend. Ive been getting the stuffed feeling recently, as im just overeating. DH cant decide what he wants for dinner. Probably fast food. We havent gone to Bob Evans for a long.time. I drink a lot of fluids and that makes me feel stuffed, but it helps keep me from overeating.

I have not gone backbto exercising yet. I know that really helped when I did it before. My blood sugar and triglycerides were perfect.

I did a 5 hr eating window yesterday. I am pleased to say I did a 19 hr fast. This will be my way of eating again. I will be doing low carb, not sure if it is keto but I find it very difficult to do 20 g of carbs. It does seem easier to keep the carbs under 40 g. So I will be doing that. I think if I was actually doing Atkins this would be Phase 2. The difference is that he allowed subtracting fiber but Dr. Westman does not. I hope this woe will help me get rid of that heavy stuffed feeling I have. I probably will eventually combine this with IE/IF woe.

I talked to DS last night and her complaint is the same as mine as she also has that full/stuffed feeling when she eats. However, she is trying to eat so she can get her strength built up.

Weight is moving down 173.6 this morning so I am really happy with that. Also, very happy that FBG was 105 and BP was 120/53 which is good as well. I was supposed to take an extra Lasix today but doing such a low carb/ketoish woe, I am not going to take it. I remember Dr. Atkins saying not to take an fluid pill when doing Atkins. Therefore, I am hoping I won't need it at all sometime down the road.

DH watched a few of Dr. Westman's YouTube videos with me last night and I think he finally understands how I need to eat. I am using MFP to keep up with the carbs but may have to stop using it because I am having to show me eating more than I will be eating to reach the 1000 calories. When eating Atkins woe, I don't get hungry and don't even eat 900 calories most of the time. There will probably be days I will not be low carb, but 90% of the time I will be.

Have a great day everybody.

I did another 5 hr eating window yesterday. Weight today 172.4 lbs, FBG 103 and bp 124/68. So this is working. I read info on an oncologist from 1920 who spoke about how to eat when in cancer treatment. It seems to be 2 woe... CR (Calorie Restriction) or Keto Diet. So I feel good about eating a combo of CR and KD which is more like a low carb woe for me.

I have lab work Friday so I'm cooking a beef roast hoping to have more improvement results.

Have a good day everybody.

This thread seems to be dying out and I have interests other places so I'm leaving it. It has been a real blessing to me. I just felt like I should let y'all know that I won't be posting here anymore.

I have not been able to get on this site on my tablet for some reason but find I can get on using my new,tablet, so I'm back.

The,scale has,been wavering around 177. I need to get that,going downward.

Carol Sue So glad you are able to get back on here. I left because it seemed crazy for me to keep it going just for me, but I will come back now that we can stay in touch.

Weight this morning was 170.4. FBG 104 and bp was good too. I am trying to get back on keto since I read that cancer cells don't like ketones. My reading was 1.4 this morning. Keto just might help me with my treatments. Carbs are around 50 g, but I will work towards lowering them to less.

Good to see you back. Have a great day.

I'm glad to be back, too. This place has always,felt like home,to me,and our,friendship has,been very long lived.

I'm trying to get my password,saved on MY small tablet that I use at the,casino. I wish I could,change my password to a,real password instead of using that temporary password.

Carol Sue I have to use the pw they gave me too. My original one quit working a long time ago. When they gave me the temporary, I was afraid to try to change it because I wasn't sure it would work. If I ever lose the password, I won't be able to get on here either.

I've had a good day. I've settled into Brunch and Dinner. I use a protein shake in my coffee throughout the day and then before 6pm, I drink the rest of the shake. This gives me 6 to 7 hr eating window and calories between 1000 to 1100 and carbs around 50 g. I read that ketones should be between 1 to 2 and mine was 1.4 so I'm good if I can keep it around that I'm doing good keto.

Today I was able to get in here on 3fat chicks with my old tablet. I dont understand. I will use whatever one works. My new tablet is the same as my old one, a Kinfle Fire, but the old one is 10" and the new one is 11". Sypposedly has updated features, probably things I never use.I stull want to get on 3 Fat Chicks with my small 7 inch tablet I use at the casino.

Today the scale was still 177.2 down from 177.8 yesterday.

Today,June 19, is the 68th anniversary of my fathers death, and also the anniversary of my nephews death but i dont remember what year. He died the same day as his grandfather.

Good morning. Weight this morning 169.8.. . I was so excited to see that number. FBG up to 115 and my ketones .7 so I'm either out of ketosis or only have a trace of ketones. I need to look that up again. This shows that I do better eating 2 meals a day and limit cheese in order to stay in ketosis. If I was just dieting to lose weight, I could deal with this as is, but since I'm fighting cancer and I've read cancer cells don't like ketones, I need to stay in ketosis.

I love eating keto because I wake up ready to get up. All the benefits are slow but I do love this benefit.

Hope everybody has a good day.

Carol Sue I'm glad you were able to get back on 3fc on both kindles. I hope you can get the smaller one you take to casino. I also like being able to get on here. I missed it when we weren't able to come on 3fc. Hope we have it going for us for good now.

I had my miscarriage on June 19th 41 yrs ago. I hadn't even thought of that until you mentioned your Dad and Nephew dying on this day. Time does fly.

Trish, I will be happy to be back in the 160s too. Its been so long. I havent tracked food for so long. I want to get backbtobthat, and back to lower carb.

I am amazed that I can get in here on my old tablet after so long of getting the error message. I will have to work on my small tablet before we go to the casino next week. I just need to enter the password and get it to save.

Carol Sue I think pc have a mind of their own and with AI that is probably true. My pc seems to know what I want before I ask these days. I heard that would happen some day and today seems to be the time.

Weight this morning is 168 lbs. FBG was 108 and ketone was 1.2. I want to work at staying in ketosis and will be slowly switching to that woe.

I talked to my niece yesterday and my sister has decided to into hospice. She doesn't want to fight anymore and is tired of going in and out of the hospital and tired of all the pain. I am working toward adjusting to this. We have been so close and I will really miss her when she is gone. I have prayed and decided to make what time we have left as good as we can. I plan to go see her sometime this weekend. She doesn't call anymore. I heard her laughing with someone while I was talking to my niece. She seems to be cutting me off. Probably thinks that is best for me. I haven't talked to her since she was in the hospital.

Headed for my infusion. Hope you get all your machines doing what you need them today.

BBL

Trish,my neighbor went into hospice but came back out because she kept improving. it was a few years before she actually passed. So you never know what will happen with your sister. I will continue to pray for her.

The scale was up this morning to 178.4. I have had some extremely high blood sugar readings lately. My A1c is not going to improve.

We are not supposed to go to the casino today because he did not win on Wednesday, but we had planned to go there to eat the fish dinner with our comp money we have accumulated. About once a month we have enough money accumulated to eat free. He likes the fish dinner but its too big for 1 person so we split it. They have a few other things I would like to order but then he would waste the fish by not eating it all. He just assumes I want fish because he does.
