Hospitalis

It's been a week since I got out of the hospital. Upon thinking about it I was in the hospital two years ago, too. That's two hospital visits in two years. I don't want to go to the hospital again.

Everything I normally eat is on the naughty list. I rarely eat anything on the approved list. Well…. That's changing.

I am not going to eat fried food. I pretty much eliminated caffeine. I am eliminating red meat. I'm eating oats, fruit, vegetables, chicken, rice. I'm walking regularly. I'm eating earlier. I'm eating less. Trying to create a caloric deficit.

I didn't have the prescriptions filled. I stopped taking existing prescriptions.

I'm drinking less water. When I was in the hospital I was told I was dehydrated. Not possible. Told I drink too much water and my body is third spacing. That means water is being purged with no nutritional content being extracted. Water logged myself.

Have Dr appointment tomorrow with GP. Ought to be interesting.

My wife is surprised I'm making changes to diet. And she brings in food I'm not supposed to eat. Just because I can't have it doesn't mean other people can't have it. Disturbed by her bringing in food I traditionally like to eat when she knows I'm trying to make a positive change in my life. I guess we will see who is stronger mentally.

My traditional way of altering diet was to not bring bad stuff in the house. I guess that didn't work. So now I will practice mental discipline.
