doing better today
despite bad mouth pain
starting some antibiotics again
the 7th batch in 11 months
doing better because i know
they will help in a few days
new food plan--
i like fasting and i know
how to do it safely with my
insulin
so i wanted to try a 12/12 hour one
to eat every 12 hours
omad was a little difficult for me
the dilema i first had to solve
was at what time to eat
i get up late due to pain issues
and hourly bathroom trips
so im not ready to eat til noon
this makes it noon and midnight
now i need to figure on a quick meal at midnight
not with a long time of cooking but Soft too
and not high in sugar or carbs
but at least 500 calories
any ideas?

was hoping to get off so much processed foods
sometimes it feels gross to eat
and i want it back out of my body
but how to do this?
veggies have to be canned (no freezer) so not too great with all the salt
limited veggies available canned too
canned meats loaded with salts and nitrites
cheese is ok but i cant seem to limit it then end up needing assistance to poop
(laxs are bad for me to go near)
eggs seem to be an unprocessed food
um maybe eggs and soymilks
pretty boring
sometimes i think a mono diet / mono foods
may be simpler to
prevent all the food thoughts
and always trying to come up
with a plan i can live with
it would be easier to just eat when hungry and
not think about it
but
when you have no sense of fullness
you need some parameters around food
some sort of limits

very hungry today.
on a liquid diet
per dr instructions.
(too much pain to eat)
but no help for the
nutritional drinks
he said to have.
The cheaper ones were
sold out today and
not going to be able to
check again til friday
(presurgery appt,)
can a diabetic last that
long?
maybe if i dont take my insulin?
it requires food with it
or at least liquid carbs.
i tried the food bank but
was told they cant look for
anything specific for ppl
maybe when i go to the
appt. on friday someone will
have mercy on me?
its at the hospital.
its so unavoidable to
have a person have to be like this
a few pain pills for a few weeks
so they can eat normally til surgery
o well
heres to hoping i stay on my feet
until friday
and not faint

i really like walking outdoors as exercise
it does not seem like exercise
i dont do it because in the winter its too icy
but yet in the summer my feet swell too much to
wear running shoes
walking in sandals are too loose and end up
cutting into my feet
its too early to exercise right now
as my head even still hurts with movement
but
hoping someday to go walking again
right now is a good time of year here too
as my feet arent swollen yet
but its still icy out
i have to catch that time period right between
the ice and the swelling
the other part is that i hate only exercising
for one season because then its hard
to get started again
all the improved shape you get in is lost
its like starting all over again
and again
with never any increase in conditioning
but its the only thing free and enjoyable
ah o well
