Yesterday I was so sick:( I just had to have 3 kisses (chocolate) with cherry and wow, did I get sick. It was a stark reminder as to what happens when I eat sweets or drink carbonated beverages while taking topamax. It also happens if I eat too much. I did force myself to drink my water and I did get down a sandwich. I usually never would eat any kind of bread, but I wanted something more in my tummy, so I put pnut butter on it and had 1/2 c cottage cheese with it. I am feeling much better this morning.
I have a couple of goals I am going to work really hard on. 1 is to write my food journal on here and 2 is to start back on my treadmill and get my exercise up a bit.
I am keeping up my vitamins and have not been really sick sick in over 2 years since I added D3. Because I do so low calories, I take 2 prenatals per day. I am not crazy about a lot of protein as too much causes glycogen to store up in the liver, raising blood sugar. I am sure doctor will not be happy that I do not take a full 90g per day.
I am trying to not let numbers get to me and eat when hungry and eat what and when I need to. Years ago, I was treated for anorexia and do not want to follow that path again and therefore til recently while trying to lose weight avoided counting calories (no wonder I could not succeed). Now, goal is PORTION, PORTION, PORTION:) Yes, I struggle daily with these issues.
Two years ago, I was down from 254 to 206 and doing so good. I was on HCG (naturopathic). My husband was ill and needed liver transplant and for 2 years our lives were upside down. He was in hospital for 4 months and when he got his transplant, I gave up diet and everything and it took less than 1 month to go back up. I just was too tired to care anymore. I had a relative living here to help with the kids and had no idea all my husband's power tools were being ripped off. Over 1 year later, things were still being discovered missing. Now, he struggles with his kidneys. I can't be in the past..I have to look for the future and take care of me...

sorry about your hubby. Sick on topamax? That is ODD! I get sick from the prenatals, that is a LOT to take BTW! Please follow your doctors orders, you need the protein, it isn't going to screw up your liver, 90 isn't too much. Try not to fall back into the anorexia manipulation of stuff. The internet is full of crap that will give you poor information. Don't fall for the junk! Protien is YOUR FRIEND!!!!!! You can do it! We didn't get fat by eating protein! I can see you trying to micromanage, instead of eating to feed your body with things that make it strong. Think of food as your friend.. It will help you. Then you will be able to learn so much about yourself, enter your food, calorie count is ok, but focus like the doc said, protein. portion, and good food! HUGS!!!
