Day 2 of Charting FBS

108 wake up at 6:40 am 8 points higher than it should be but 10 points lower than yesterday!

Breakfast was 4 eggs and pico de gallo again.

At 9:24 I ate a banana. It helped a little with the nausea.

Nausea all morning. 96 at 11:24 am. (2 hours after eating) I would have thought with a 96 i would have felt good but nope.

Lunch was Italian Sausage Butternut Squash Collars Greens Enchiladas. Delish! Nausea was instantly gone! I became full of energy!

2:48 pm 115. (2 hours after lunch) Nausea was back full time.  I drank 100% natural AloeCure. Instantly nausea/anxiety was gone!!

9:30 pm it was 100. Still no nausea which is incredible because I'm always nauseous.

Day 1 Testing Blood Sugars

Woke up with Fasting Blood Sugars at 118 at 7am. 100-126 is Pre-diabetic range.

Breakfast was 4 eggs and paleo English muffin (no dairy, grains, soy, sugar in it).
116 after breakfast 8:45am.

112, 2 hours after breakfast 11am. Feeling nauseous.

92 after lunch (pork roast, I had no veggies available) 11:45am. Feeling amazing! Nausea and anxiety is gone. I felt the best now than I did any other time today!

 91 at 1pm. Nauseous again.

123 at 3:30pm after 20 minutes Elliptical Machine and 2 hours after eating. The exercise helped my anxiety and nausea.

 120 5:45 pm 2 hours after I ate 2 bananas and cashew butter. Feeling good.

 123 at 8:30 pm 2 hours after dinner (Italian Sausage Butternut Squash Collards Greens Enchiladas). Feeling good.

Pre-Diabetes

Last Saturday, at 2 am, I got up to go the bathroom and fainted. Kevin said I was incoherent for about 10 minutes. We didn't go to the ER because I felt good after eating turkey and potatoes. Then the doctor called saying my glucose lab came back high (103, it should be below 100). So I made an appointment to get my A1C checked. My A1C was 4.9 which is normal. The doctor didn't listen to me, told me I was pre-diabetic and left. She told me I should see a nutritionist. When I told her I don't eat refined sugar or processed foods she told me I need a little bit of that in my life. Hahaha. She's so full of shit.

The whole appointment pissed me off because I had no time to explain that I'm a runner and my blood sugar and blood pressure usually run low. My friend sent me an article stating how runners have a lower resting heart rate and when they stand from laying the blood pools in their legs and can't make it to their heart fast enough so they pass out. This describes to me better what happened than saying I'm pre-diabetic.

So I was pissed and anxious about this experience for 2 days. Many on Facebook said I'm healthy and should get a second opinion. I think I'll buy a meter and chart my blood sugars for awhile to learn what it reads when I feel shaky or nauseous. I had a realization that maybe I don't have food allergies, maybe I get nauseous from some foods because my blood sugar is off. Maybe the nausea is caused by my blood sugars being wonky and not the food! I have never thought about it this way before. Maybe some day I'll see an endocrinologist.

Because of this experience I binged on low carb fudge leftover from Christmas. It was delicious but my doctor was wrong. I do not need this in my life. Makes me nauseous.

Other than this experience I've been 100% W30 compliant and been experiencing Tiger Blood! I feel happy, positive, and motivated about life! But my anxiety has been more pronounced than usual. I think I just hate being told I'm sick when I exercise/eat right and feel so healthy!

I know what's best for me and I'm going to keep doing ME! 😀

February W30 Another Round

After completing the January Whole30 I've decided to jump right into another round! Goals for February:
Yoga 3 times a week,
Run or walk MJ every day,
Eating W30,
Morning/Bedtime Routine.
I think I can do it!!

So far on D4. Today I woke up feeling positive and rested. Starting my workout routine today. Fainted on D2 so I feel happy to feel so good today!! I'm hoping I get Tiger Blood in full force this time!!

W30 D18-30

I meant to get on here and blog but never did. My tiger blood never came in full force where I want to clean and organize. I think because I was taking Candida products and was killing Candida. I went to the doctor because I itched so bad. She said it was hemmorhoids. So not a big deal. Caused by pregnancies. I don't have Candida so I stopped the products.

On D28 I ate Marcos pizza. It was intentional and tasted absolutely amazing. It felt worth it! Then I had coconut yogurt with rice starch and cottage cheese with applesauce. I never got itchy but the next 2 days resulted in a deep dark depression with severe anxiety. It was so bad. Reminded me of my dark days in Tucson when I went through my divorce and then again after having babies. I'm not 100% sure it was caused by Candida products or noncompliant food but I don't want to experiment and find out.

Started up another round on February 1 and have been compliant since!! I want to add exercise back in too especially yoga! Chale and I are going to start going to the gym and holding each other accountable.

On Feb 2 at 2 am I went to go the bathroom and fainted while washing my hands. I've been getting more dizzy than usual when standing up but this was the first time I fainted. By the time mom got here so we could go to the ER I had eaten turkey, veggies, and potatoes and felt better. I plan on getting my lab work done tomorrow. I think I hadn't eaten much for breakfast or drank much water and stood too quickly which caused me to faint. Also someone sent me an article about runners fainting because their resting heart rate is so low and blood doesn't have time to go from their feet to their heart. It said nothing is wrong. So it makes me less worried.

Goals for February: Yoga 3 times a week. Walk or run MJ every day. Morning/bedtime routine. Eating W30 compliant! I think I can do it!! 😀
