Hi guys,

Good for you Gina!    How many days are you going to do the challenge?  Blueberries are on my allowed to eat list and I've been thinking about buying some....maybe I will rethink that.  My scales are really up this week.  I don't feel like I am stress eating but I probably am eating on the run more.

Sounds Good!

When you get a chance check out my post called Sugar in Wendy's Chili. You just might be ok with it.

Mine and my hubby's parents passed away before we had to  deal with any issues like you are having, but my dear aunt who is 93 is moving to a nursing home this week.  It is so sad to see her decline.

B protein pancake, puumpkin and walnuts

S almonds and apple

S greek yogurt, raisins, walnuts and bran buds

D pork chop and veggie salad

miles 45 minutes treadmill, vites yes, fluids 11 cups so far,  numbers good.

Anne

I have begged her to come and live with me but she refuses.  DH says he can't live with her and she would drive him crazy but if she would decide to come I guess he would have to move out....lol. 

Sounds Good!

Hi Roz,

I'm glad your mom is home and feeling better.  Al's aunt has been in 2 different nursing homes in the last 2 months.  She got to go home for a couple of weeks and then got sick and had to go back in the hospital and then to another nursing home.  She is hoping to go home next Saturday.  We are all feeling like she should not be living alone, but she is pretty determined.  She has so much medicine and seems to get it confused.  She still knows what is going on and pays her own bills and everything, just gets a little confused on all the medicine.

S:  Decaf Coffee
S:  Lemon Tea Protein Drink
L:  2 Meatballs, Spaghetti Sauce

D:  Sausage, Peppers & Onions

Linda

How old is his aunt?  I couldn't figure out why my Mom was confused about her pills because I put them in pill container and and then I read that Dementia Patients can not tell time anymore and the days all blend together.  I got my Mom a HUGE digital wall clock that has the time, day, and date.  She is really good about taking her pills now and she also knows what day it is.  She reminds me when we go to church and when she has a Dr. appt.  At the hospital this week Mom looked at the wall clock with confusion and she could not figured out what time it was so now I am a believer.

I'm having a terrible time finding foods to eat.  I can't have any processed foods.  You know I am NOT a cook....I don't know what in the world I am going to eat.   I've been cramping all day. 

Your Menu sounds Wonderful!

Things seem to better than they were.  I didn't realize older people get dizzy and confused when they have a UTI.  I'm going to have to read and pay attention to her symptoms.

Sounds Yummy!
