So many of you have called me via cell phone, or have emailed me personally, or even commented here, thank you SO much! It helps to know I have such wonderful friends and family, such an incredible support system, that will help me succeed to the fullest! So many have had such great advice, what to do... and what not to do! I am doing my VERY best, and I have eaten what they told me TO eat, and have AVOIDED everything they told me not to eat! So far... strictly on a liquid diet, (with smooth vanilla yogurt and clear jello) and I really am NOT hungry! There has been 2 times now, when I hadn't eaten for quite awhile, that I felt that I did need to eat, then about 4 bites later, I was completely satisfied! Yes... I did say satisfied! Incredible. I do know that will change, and will get my appetite back, but... the most important thing right now... not to stretch out my tummy pouch, only put in a tad bit at a time!
I had another wonderful nap this afternoon. When I woke up, I really felt great!!! I did a little bit of laundry. Started the washer, put clothes in, one and two pieces at a time. Then when they were done, piece by piece, I put them into the dryer. When the dryer was done, Benjamin held the basket, and put the basic stuff in, and I hung up the shirts, then he hauled the basket full to the livingroom. So, it just felt good to do something! That is something I WILL need to be careful of though, as I feel better.... I could over-due and cause a problem. I am suppose to keep my lifting UNDER 10 pounds!
My dad is still here, probably until Thursday morning. I sure have appreciated his help!!! But, has been so nice just having my daddy here again! I miss having him living here... but... he has a fabulous wife Glenda, and I couldn't be happier for him! She is a wonderful step-mom... who I most surely consider my Dear Mom now! I also have even more love for her now since she was so supportive of dad coming up here... and for an unlimited time... as long as I needed him! I am doing very well, so I cannot be selfish, and he is looking forward to returning to her as well, what a great feeling! I wouldn't want anything different for dad! He is happy, so I am happy for him! I have the greatest dad in the world!
Oh... blood sugars? I am so excited! I have had 104, 102, so we are getting there! Still go up at times, but they are on their way down!
Some knew I was already having trouble with my feet. The neuropathy that had started in my feet, and toes has disappeared! YEAH!!!
Well, hope you all have had a good weekend. Good days ahead!
More later... Love, Eydie
