Draglist's Journal, 18 February 2017

Woke at 218.4, up 2.8 from yesterday as the body adjusts to a new regimen. I showed 4.6 pounds of water retention this morning, probably from the candies they gave me to suck on during the stem cell infusion (to fight the taste of the meds). I also ate some pears in juice last night that probably were high in carbs, too. I will do my five miles and eat lots of good protein and fat today and maybe we'll shed this water. UPDATE: Did a high protein breakfast and then walked 3 miles until Denise arrived. Had a nice chat and then took a 45 minute nap. Delicious lunch then came and now are are both reclining and on laptops. Will visit some more and eventually do more walking. Will do another 3 miles later just to keep things symmetrical! Feeling great. UPDATE: A big dinner and another nap. Denise left at 7 and I did two more miles to hit 6 for the day. Then they brought in a new patient who needed my room (closer to the nurses). So I got another half mile moving my stuff! But I got a much bigger and nicer room. Got a 212.2 weigh in, which under the circumstances, is fine. Don’t know how the bod is going to process all this stuff. I only ate 1263 calories today and it’s hard to get big calories with only the protein and veggies I’ve been eating. But plenty full as of 11 pm, so just going to roll with it.

Just a thought and my keyboard is acting up< so apologies for the arrows>>> Could you drink protein shakes such as EAS which is 100 calories and 15g protein and 5 carbs.... Atkins is 160 calories.

As long as you keep eating eating nothing but proteins and veggies, I feel like that fluid weight will eventually drop off. Have you got plenty of water to drink? Since you can walk the halls, you must not be hooked up to an IV, ..... or are you? You sound great! Keep the posts coming, buddy!!

Did you take your treadmill with you?

Shouldn't hang around long, the candies can't have done that much damage. I think you're doing well sticking close to your usual eating when they keep on putting 'bad' food in front of you.

You are tossing out your treadmill? For real? Did it breakdown? I must have missed that post. LOL! So you have added some walking buddies as you go along, Bill? That is cool if you have someone to walk with.
