askye, good luck. Your anxiety makes sense, but I hope it isn't as bad as you fear.
Went to the urologist today. More tests. No decision yet on what we're going to do as far as treatment goes yet. I'm so tired.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Amy Garvey, I might think about your company for some things of mine...they are not quite ready yet, but shortly, perhaps.

Rest up, sj. And take care of yourself, askye. Hope you are both feeling better soon.

Oh, yes, totally. I thoughT I typed it, but I thought it instead.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yes, this.
I'm also suffering from the summer cold, and boy howdy, is this not fun. I think I'm maxed out on all possible allowable medications right now. Whee.

juliana, feel better.
It's quiet in here today. I went to the market today to see if i could find any sort of frozen food or other convenience food that would fall into my carb limit for a meal or snack but no luck.

Punishingly Intricate
What about nuts, sj? Or, popcorn?

Have you considered string cheese, sj? It's nice and portable.
Also, I was in the oncologist's office reading a cancer magazine, as one does, and there was a tip that smelling rubbing alcohol can help with nausea. The article suggested putting alcohol on a cotton ball.

I'm eating so many nuts, seeds, and cheese at this point. I was really looking for something that's a complete meal that wouldn't require me to have to measure things 7 times a day. I just had my banana and cashew butter evening snack, which I'm trying to convince myself is as good as an ice cream sundae.

Huh. I may have to try that. The nausea is actually getting better with this diet, probably because I am never allowed to get hungry. Although my acid reflux and stomach issues are worse because I'm eating more protein and fiber than my body is used to.

Not sure what your precise targets are, sj, but based on knowing that for the diabetics in my life a single carb portion is roughly 15 grams of carbs - here are some things I have currently on hand that are 15 (+/- 3) grams:
- Lite bread (45 calories per slice, Sarah Lee's Lite Wheat is a nice one), a little butter or low-sugar peanut butter might be good with it.
- 100 cal Greek style yogurt cups, if you like chocolate with strawberries, a little drizzle of chocolate syrup would bring that right up to 15.
- Caramel corn flavored rice cakes;
- Trisket Sun Roasted Tomato & Olive Oil.
If you wish, I will do my best to be of use in brainstorming more ideas.
