I went to the wound care doctor yesterday. I have a terrible looking fourth toe. It's all black and red and looks like it's going to peel off. Dr told me I have a 60% chance of keeping my toe. This is so stressful. I have to be careful not to stress eat. After I was in the ER I stressed so bad that we had two days of not eating good things for us. 2 days of Burger King, Chinese takeout the evening which was very salty and then we ate ice cream, and then we ate a Dunkin' Donut. That is really out of character for me because I don't even like ice cream. I haven't had a donut in Forever, and we don't typically eat Chinese takeout because we know it's very salty. I got back on track yesterday, took my medication, ate good food and today I'm back down where I started. Thank God I didn't gain fat pounds and the water came back off quickly.

BigDaddyRP, Minminp, Retta Smith... I so appreciate your support and your prayers. We are trying to stay focused on the Lord and his promises of healing. Trying not to stress. Stress causes cortisol, and cortisol causes belly fat. I sure don't need more belly fat. Trying to get rid of the belly fat I already have. LOL. Thanks again.

Thank you, GZ9GJG. We are doing the best we can to take care of me. We are praying for complete healing of this toe so they don't cut it off. I have a hard time thinking about it. I get really stressed. My husband has to clean it and dress it everyday sometimes two times a day. I'm on a strong antibiotic. The wound is very sore and feels like someone smashed it. Praying for healing. Thank you for your support.

You can have a few bad meals and not gain a lot of fat as long as it doesn’t become a habit or the norm. Sorry you are going through such a stressful time!

Peeperjj, when I was stress-eating the evening and the next day after my emergency room experience, I still did not exceed my calorie limit. I did exceed my carbs obviously. I am not supposed to eat sugar or grains because I get the blood sugar spikes and my pre diabetes goes nuts.

Peeper, tom, shirfleur. Thank you so much for your encouragement. And your prayers. I will get through this. It's just a bump in the road. God is with me and he will calm the storm. Shalom.💙🙇♀️👍
