Day 3.

I can't believe I've made it this far.  Two days is 4 times as long as I made it last time.  I've got so much stuff cooked and in the fridge right now that I won't have to cook anything for myself for a couple of days.  That helps me think I might get through it today as well.  It truly is one day at a time for me and I am tempted to give up at every moment.   I saw something on Facebook yesterday that said "When You Feel Like Quitting, Think About Why You Started"  and I keep trying to do that. 


In the fridge, I have Mongolian beef, broccoli soup, chicken salad, banana bread, bone broth and pumpkin bars, also, part of a peach I started yesterday.


Symptoms this morning:
Sore knees.
Sore feet.
Sore hands.
Dry eyes (3 times eye drops last night)
Dry mouth (3 times last night, but maybe not as bad as usual.)  (I'm also on Plaquenil for these 2 symptoms.)
Up to pee 3 times during the night.
No thigh and back ache like I had yesterday.


My dream is to make a mashed potato substitute.  I'm going to try (in a couple of days) mashed parsnips and cauliflower but my hopes are not high.


When I add foods back in, the usual thing to do is add ghee, then maybe egg yolks ... very slow.  I'm thinking of going with M&Ms the first trial and then Bob Evans Mashed Potatoes for the second one.  :-P
