Next time, I will definitely get the "broiled" chicken as the
extra-greasy/crispy (not crispy!) threatened to have the dinner come
back up before I went to bed...I discussed this with Kathie the next day and she was upset about her "origional recipie" chicken being too crispy. So, it seems the KFC "crew" got the chicken switched...

Snack: a bit more choc ice creamme (my dog did such a great job of

easy to make meal was indigestion and the fear I'll blow chunks later

Dinner: We went out to dinner at Montana Mike's with two friends; I had
salad with 1000 Island Dressing, most of a 16 oz steak, a "fully loaded"
baked potatoe and a large roll with butter. Since Kathie was driving, I
had a beer! (A regular Coors) It wasn't all that great but it was
adequate and wasn't cursed with the words "light" or "lite" or "Ultra".
A couple of hours after eating, my stomach was bothering me so I drained
the last of the Pink (Pepto), took three Tums and slept well enough...

7 August 2009

Breakfast: a pork chop and two scrambled eggs, two sour dough bread toast and coffee

Lunch:

Snack: a cup of coffee followed by sharp chest pain...

Dinner: about ½ of a 6" subway sub (chicken breast on whole wheat) and water

I was feeling nausiated when I was looking at the selections...
I tried taking Tums but it didn't help. I ended up barfing twice and after Kathie got home (and after I finished watching Eureka, we went to Dillions and I bought a bottle of Mylanta. Now, Mylanta's label says Ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are taking any drug for...diabetes

Well, I'm diabetic so I was supposed to ask the pharmacist (but the Dillions pharmacy was closed for the night) and I wanted to get a good night's sleep. The stomach pain had dropped off but minor pain becomes major when I try to sleep. So, I decided to accept the short term risk for the short term gain of being pain free and being able to sleep at night!

Pre-Bed Snack: Water and then some more water...

6 August 2009

Breakfast: cold oatmeal and coffee

Lunch: two largish egg salad sanwhiches and a can of DP

Dinner: roast beef, baked potatoe chunks with onion, creamed corn, that cabbage stuff, two biscuits with honey and apple crisp for desert.

I had a gin-n-tonic before going to bed.

Around midnight, I felt a very sharp pain just below my sternum. I rolled around in bed, hoping the pain would go away and went back to sleep for about an hour. Then, I went to the bathroom and took a couple of tums. It didn't do any good. I sat on the toilet and waited for the pain to go away. Kathie was worried and asked me when I was going back to bed. So, I went back to bed.

I repeated this cycle of get up, drink some water in the hall bathroom, fart, sit on the toilet and read an excellent book "Viet Nam Above The Treetops: A Forward Air Contrtoller Reports" by John F. Flanagan) for a while and then go back to bed. The last two times, I was feeling like I was about to barf. I finally put my finger down my throat and after I got done barfing, I drank some water, went back to bed and fell asleep immediately. The pain was gone.

This apparently was a really bad case of GERD but it damn near sent me to the Emergency Room!

 Breakfast:  Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls Sausage (Eggs, Potatoes, Sausage & Cheddar Cheese) and coffee

Breakfast 2: bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant

Lunch:  Gazpacho, cold cuts, some potatoe chips and almost of glass of non-sugar-free Pepsi and Mug Root Beer (about a half glass each)...

Here is the recipe I tried to get my co-workers to try.  Only one was willing to try this.  It was quite expensive and I feel like I got ripped off by their not having the testerone to try it!  Next office luncheon I attend, I will go as cheap and as non-adventuresome as humanly possible!


Gazpacho

Spain's noble contribution to the world of soup.

2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded & chopped

1 large green pepper, seeded & chopped

4 cups cold tomato juice

1 tsp crushed red pepper

5-6 med tomatoes, peeled, seeded & chopped

5 cloves garlic, crushed

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 large red onion, chopped

1 Tbsp olive oil

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Garnishes -- sliced stuffed green olives,

                      chopped red onion,

                      peeled & chopped cucumber,

                     homemade croutons.

 

 

Stir all ingredients together thoroughly. Chill thoroughly. Stir again just before serving. Serve in frosted bowls with small bowls of the garnishes alongside so each person can add their own.

NOTE: This is not an original recipe;  I lost track of where I got it.
