Sabbath…
I woke at 4am this morning…. in great pain. I had been having a Gout attack in my right foot… about half strength (which hurts enough). Today my right foot is fine, but my left ankle is fully engaged in a Gout attack…. and I am at hospital levels of pain. Taking Indomethacin on an empty stomach means I will have great stomach pain as well, but it is my only option right now, as any anti-oxidants I can take have calories. Luckily Church doesn’t begin until 12:30pm today.
It is 12pm now and I have managed (with blessings from Him, as I prayed for intervention) to get the pain under control. I can now walk again and go to Church. I must ask about my uric acid levels and see what is causing them to be high in my assigned diet. I have a feeling it is the sugars in the drinks and bars.

I began taking Amoxicillin immediately yesterday for my leg problems. The Doctor found I had an infection going from when my legs were swollen weeks ago, and had opened sores. I can already see a difference. On a different note, I have gout throughout my body from over indulging greatly over the past few years. Even now, with eating only 1 nutrition bar a day, I am fighting my uric acid levels. My right foot is inflamed currently…. and hurts badly. Luckily it is not a full on attack.
I am back to wanting food. The more I am without it, the more I am wanting it. I fear that I will not get past this feeling, and possibly gorge myself when I get back to food. That stated…. this is most likely a temporary thing… and I have 24 weeks left anyway…. so I really don’t know what I am thinking. Plus… I really don’t want to ever…. EVER be fat again. I suppose that though will be enough after all. I do miss food however.

I was walking with Daniel this morning…. we are pushing hard… very hard. It is greatly hot and tomorrow we are trying an earlier hour… 7am. During the walk, I began to have chest pain in my heart area…. 5 times this happened and we had to stop each time.
Went to the Doctor today for my leg issues… was prescribed Amoxicillin. I also had an EKG done… they see no issues and tell me to greatly watch that just in case.

I am looking forward to tomorrow’s weigh-in. I have really been pushing hard in my activity levels, and because so, my body is very hungry all the time. I will speak with the class tomorrow at what can be done. Of the pain in my leg, it has become more centralized, now only painful in a smaller area. I am wondering if I may have been bitten by something. I cannot see any marks, and thee is no swelling. The pain, however, is intense still, and I cannot touch the spot that it is.
I find myself thinking about how much longer I must be on this program. Even knowing it is saving my life, I am getting tired of not being able to eat food. As I stated, now MY BODY is shooting these weird feelings to me, and my brain is actually thinking it needs to eat. I cannot explain it better than that. It is truly a non pleasant feeling. Very strange.

It’s HOT!!! Even in the morning when we walk. By the end of the walk, I can barely stand, and I am completely parched. Plus… something is happening to the rear of my right leg… where that sire originally opened a month ago. I cannot even touch that area without having extreme pain…. and it aches as I type this. I will contact the Dr. tomorrow.
Daniel has reported to me that he has been doing a stair climber at the gym sometime after we have done our walks. He is amazed at how he is feeling, and the range of movement he suddenly has again. He says he feels like he can conquer anything now! That is awesome!

Very tired, and pushing hard with walking. I am in great pain, and yet I am able to walk miles!! I have also noticed something new. I am not craving food, but I am getting signals from my body to eat food…. which is really weird. I have never had this feeling before… even while homeless.

I miss food. The more I think how much I miss it, the more I find myself thinking of eating it all when I complete this course. This is something I must resist, keeping to the schedule I set daily when I do get back to normal life. The more I walk and swim in a day, the more tired I am. I know.. that is normal life, but what I mean by tired is complete exhaustion, barely able to even lift my arms. I cannot even think properly. This is something the Program Dr.’s tell us to watch closely. I reported it on my last turned in sheet. The pain in my Liver area comes and goes, and is a stabbing pain. I am not convinced it is Liver related at this time however. As I type this, I find myself disturbed with the way I feel, and lack of thought process I am going through… and I am quite grumpy.
