LittleRedFlatBack's Journal, 09 March 2015

This has been a tough week. My mother was close to going into a diabetic coma last Thursday so ambulance was called and we've been at hospital ever since. Fortunately, I've been able to pack lunches to stay on track.....for the most part anyway. I'm certainly happy to see a weigh drop this week. I'm ready for some CALMER times! Have a good week FS buddies.

Thanks everyone. My family has always been very lucky health wise. There just hasn't been much sickness. I'm making arrangements for some home healthcare for my parents now so hopefully things will get easier for everyone soon. Even though my FS scale numbers don't show this, I'm 9 lbs away from the halfway mark, considering where I started 5 months ago. Have a great day everyone and remember that it will not taste as good as healthy feels!

I use what the flight attendants say, "Put the oxygen mask on yourself first, then assist others next to you." You must take care of yourself in order to take care of others. Best wishes to you!

Thanks for asking Devoted. She's doing much better this week. I was able to get some home health care that appears to be helping. I think it's just going to take her a little time. Her doctor has put her on a low carb diet, like I'm on. It's a challenge to get her to eat right.

I'm glad your mom is doing better. Some older people lose (or its diminished) their sense of taste and smell so it is harder for them to get the nutrients they need.

We'll continue to keep her in our prayers, LittleRedFlatBack .. I'm glad to hear she's doing better! :)
