  • Carol Sue I wondered if the place DH gets lottery tickets is a connivence store and easier for him to go in and out of and he isn't confident enough to go to grocery store by himself. Men are strange. They won't admit that they are afraid. Just a thought he might be afraid to walk around in a store by himself just in case something happens.

    New low this morning after 1st day on carnivore; weight 147.2 lbs and FBG 99. Still have some stomach heaviness but I have about 13 days until next infusion and hope to get the bloating under control. I know I will probably do carnivore at least another few days but will eventually switch to ketovore but want to get the bloating under control before I switch.

    Have a good day.
  • DH has been in the grocery store himself. He wont buy food in a convenience store.

    We are going to the casino. im not happy about it. He better be okay.
    I didnt get weighed again.
  • Carol Sue I hope your trip to the casino went well. I also hope if he was able to do the casino that you will be able to get some sleep.

    New low again, 146.2 lbs today and FBG 96. Amazing what carnivore + IF does. Not sure how long I can do this before getting bored with it, but sure like the way it is going.

    Have a good day.
  • Im happy to say I weighed this morning. 176. Maybe im on a new downward streak. Im glad to see you are continuing down Trish. i wish I could catch up.

    We didnt go to the casino but are planning to go today as long as he feels good. I dont think he is taking all his meds as he thinks they are making him feel bad.

    my tester fell on the floor behind the end table and I cant reach it. DH will have to try. He has a little grabber they gave him after his hip surgery. It helps him pick things up.
  • Carol Sue I'm glad you are starting to lose weight too. I really think the mushroom coffee along with restarting If along with more of a ketovore woe is why I'm beginning to lose. I don't call it carnivore because I eat dill pickles and 1/2 an avocado along with different kinds of meat instead of just beef.

    I watched Dr. Berry yesterday and he still eats carnivore but eats all meats. His wife does ketovore and they feel their 2 kids and even the dogs and cats the same way. I just figure it can't hurt me. I'm blessed to be 82 yrs old and I just need to get to where I can feel better and hopefully have a better quality of what life I have left.

    Weight this morning was 145.2 lbs and FBG 94. DH wants me to stop losing weight but I told him that I'm not trying to lose weight. I'm just trying to feel better and if I lose weight I will lose. This woe is supposed to help improve my immune system and get rid of a lot of inflammation and improve digestion which hopefully will get rid of the bloating. I am not going to tell people I'm eating this way. I just say I'm doing low carb again.

    Hope all goes well if y'all go to casino. Have a good day.
