Hi all,
Writing this post has been on my todo list all week. On Monday I tried to go on an all liquid diet, the result was a disaster. Mostly it was due to the amount of insulin I injected the night before. I went from a diet with plenty of glucose to one with not much glucose at all and the result was the worst sugar crash I have ever experienced.
This was a good thing, mainly because now I know that for my liquid diet, especially the night before I start, I need to adjust my insulin intake. I am going to see my doctor next week and talk to him about how I should proceed. While it was not fun I needed to try it once before I started just to get all of the kinks out of it. I found the liquid part of it to be miserable, mainly due to the fact that I wanted food so badly, but I think I would have made it were it not for the insulin issue.
I guess the main thing is that this is why we do experiments, even with ourselves as guinea pigs, it is to gain experience we can use later when the time comes.
As an update my paperwork was submitted to insurance last Friday, so I should know in the next week or so if I am approved for surgery, after that is a surgery date. I know this is two posts in a row about my health, but well that's just how it turned out. Next post will be about me trying to change my oil for the first time or my unending quest for a decent cross platform IDE. (Integrated Development Environment)
