31 October 2008

Breakfast: A single ham, "scrambled egg", cheddar cheese on a bisquit samwhich and a cup of coffee.


Lunch: An orange, a container of strawberry yogurt and at home, a chicken breast from Dillins plus a can of DP. About a frac14 to frac34 of an hour later, I was definitely feeling hunger so I had a package of "Little Debbies" powder sugar donuts and a cup of coffee. That set up to rights (as the Brits say).


Dinner: Boiled chicken with boiled broccoli florets and some white rice (about a frac14 of a cup unboiled).

30 October 2008

Breakfast: Oatmeal and a peanut butter and reduced sugar grape jelly samwhich and a cup of coffee.

Lunch: An orange, a container of strawberry yogurt and at home, a peanut butter and reduced sugar grape jelly samwhich (as well as a can of DP).

Dinner: Overly cooked hamberger, a baked potatoe and a can of DP. Then, feeling a lot of sugar hunger, six little Oreo cookies...

I vomited about an hour after going to bed.

Normally, this is prestaged by me coughing up globs of yellow crap and then vomiting. This time, I barely made it to the bathroom before vomiting and the coughing up of yellow crap didn't come for maybe 10 minutes afterwards. Not a goog way to end a long day! My wife was/is concerned about my health and was pissed off at me keeping her awake!

I am writing this at 2:07 pm on the 31st and I can feel the early stages of the vomiting already.

Maybe my brother Charlie is right about me needing to see an internist and maybe my wife is right about me needing to see our family MD. However, I don't like "going to the Doctor" if I can help it...

The solution to last night's horrifically high blood sugar reading of

I had forgotten to take my blastedmedications with dinner (I went out to dinner) and didn't remember until almost an hour after going to bed. By that time, I would have had to eat something, brush my teeth again and this would have completely waken me and upset my wife. Besides, my dog was sleeping between my wife and I and our boy cat (Frosty) was sleeping between me and the edge of the bed. Our other cat (Kelly) was sleeping at the end of the bed between Kathie's feet and the edge of the bed. By this time it would have been too late to save me from my A1C test and I didn't really want to wake up the family...

putting in old entries

For a long, long time, I simply didn't entry my daily reports into this
blog. I decided to start by entering my missing October 2008 entries.
What a hassle! After uploading a mere five or so, I've decided to call it
quits.

It was just too boring to do!

This score is the highest it has been in a long time. So, what could have caused it? I'm thinking it is the food I ate (snack and dinner) and more important, not exercising. I worked from 8 am to 4 pm (7 52 am to 4 28 pm actually) and then went to the Montezuma Kansas Lions Club meeting.

I intend to walk tomorrow morning and since it will be a Wednesday, I will also lift weights. I can only hope this will help be with the A1C test come the 23 of November...

12 October 2008

Breakfast: Aunt Jemima pancakes and sausage and a can of DP (also a couple of cups of coffee)

Snack: A small piece of the peanut butter samwhich I am going to have for lunch...

Lunch: Remains of that peanut butter samwhich, 1.5 oz bag of Cheeze-Its and a can of DP.

Snack: Some of those little powder donuts and a can of DP.

Dinner: Homemade speghetti sauce of

  • 1.24 pounds of 85/15 hamberger,
  • 3 cans of tomatoe sauce,
  • a small amount of onion,
  • three teaspoon of Splenda "brown sugar",
  • about a quarter to a half cup of red whine wine and some "Italian Seasoning.
I had a Foster's oil can (Aussie beer) and a "small" gin-n-tonic for "desert".
Drinking that much beer and gin-n-tonic was a big mistake!

About an hour after going to bed, I started burping up stomach juices. I'd swallow them and go back to sleep. Then, I woke up realizing that I had stomach juices coming out of my left nostril. I must have been really asleep to sleep through this. (Thank God I never sleep on my back or I could have chocked on these juices like Jim Morrison did! Howver, I was sobor and the legend what that he wasn't...)

Well, enuf is enuf so I went into the main bedroom bathroom and sternly told my stomach "Time to barf if you want to!" Naturally nothing happened so I stuck my finger down my throat several times (6?) and that brought up enuf stomach juices that I was able to feel comfortable in going back to bed.

First, I had to wath my hands so I left this bathroom and went to the hall bathroom and found my wife getting ready to come to bed. Conversation:

Her:"Are you OK?"

Me: "I am now..."

Her: "Were you vomiting?"

Me: "Errr, sort of..."

Her: What do you mean, sort of? You either were or you weren't!"

Me: "Yeah, I was..."

Her: "I thought so; don't try to hide this from me."

Me: "Yes, dear..."

It all came down to my stomach not emptying worth a damn and that I can not consume too many liquids before going to bed. Or course, I can't eat too much grease before going to bed. So, it is a toss up
as to which (if either) is the causative factor in my barfing withing two hours of going to bed. Fortunately, this typically only happens once a month or so. I won't let myself consider the times it comes in clusters of a couple or three nights in a roll...

  • a head of boiled broccoli florets,
  • a small amount of sliced beef (fried)
  • and a glass of water.
My morning blood sugar was 111 and my evening was only 113! I guess that shit (broccoli) works!

It left me hungry so I had a half peanut butter samwhich on a slice of sour dough bread before bed with a gin-n-tonic.

They put a cautionary note in: "you're going to have gas like Sauda Arabia" [or words to that effect] if you increase your fiber intake. I had that gas this morning; I practically "jet propelled" myself out of bed and to the main bedroom at 4:16 am...

06 October 2008

Breakfast: Oatmeal and coffee.


Lunch: Some left over stew but not too much of the meat (it was stringy and tough) and a couple of largish potatoe chunks plus a can of DP.


Snack: I was fairly hungry so I bought a can of cheap corn beef hash, put it into a sauce pan, cracked an egg over it and cooked it over low heat until the egg was done. It was good but a couple of hours after eatting, I was afraid that I'd spoiled my dinner. My 29th Anniversary Dinner!


Dinner: We went to Mike Casey's "Casey's Cowtown" and I had

  • salad with thousand island dressing,
  • a nice KC strip steak,
  • baked potatoe (looked small but was more than I ate),
  • roll with butter and
  • corn.
I thought about having desert - their flaming custard but I didn't because
  • I'm worried about the upcoming A1C test on 20 November 2008,
  • I was afraid I'd end up getting sick from both the steak fat and the desert and
  • I simply felt too stuffed!

Who would have thought I'd feel too stuffed?
