I finally had a pretty decent day although I still haven't eaten enough veggies. I managed to stay away from half of the sodas I was drinking and that helped a lot with the cravings. My carbs were around 35 which is normal for me in OWL. I just need to keep working on the veggies. I have managed to try several new recipes for veggies this week. I ate spinach souffle, and okra with Parmesan cheese. I am managing to drink more water now that I am drinking less soda too. Tomorrow my husband has a spinal MRI which I hope will show something about why he has such terrible back pain every day. It isn't related to lifting because it hurts whether he lifts or not. It hurts as soon as he stands up every day. He went to the neuro-opthamologist on Monday and the eye doctor said he thinks he has something called eye accommodation syndrome where his eyes turn in toward the middle and cause double vision and blurriness. He didn't see any nerve damage which was great but he said eye accommodation syndrome could be related to MS. So some information but no definite diagnosis for the major part of his symptoms. He gave his doctor the info. to be able to refer him to the Mayo Clinic.
We had to put off our visit to our older daughter because we have to save money for the Mayo Clinic visit.
Our puppy had her final set of shots and in two weeks she can go to the dog park. I am nervous she might get attacked by a dog there. Anyone have tips about how to deal with the dog park?
