OK! getting back on track! 

I feel off track for one week, but havent done a blood test since April 1st. Time to get working on it again. I emailed my click for tips about my schedule and formula. Taryn says I could be having higher levels cause i am actually looseing weight now. she said ” When you are losing weight your body is in catabolism, and thus sometimes we see higher phe levels” 

Even thought i have been loosing very slowly and havent lost that much it could still give them a push. 

Also I am suppose to break up my formula through out the day. I have been having 2 pkgs bettermilk at 5 am at work with breakfast and then not again untill dinner. I find it more filling that way. If I drink them one pkg at a time its not enough and not very filling at all. 

However Taryn has asked that I break it up to 3-4 times a day. So today I tired having 2 at breakfast, 1 at lunch and 1 at dinner.  I dont feel very full actually im still hungry and i had a high supper. mashed potatoes and kernal corn. 

so tomorrows goal for me is since im breaking up my formula to break up my meals to. I have always had 3 meals a day. But tomorrow im going to take my dieticans suggestion and have my 3 meals but a morning snack and a afternoon snack.  see if i can adjust to that. normally i eat every 4 hours when I am off. 

We went grocery shopping and I got some special K bars, crackers and other things that are on the lower side of protein. my crackers i got are wheat thins and there 1 gram for 15 crackers. I also got some fresh fruit and i am going to do some baking tomorrow. I think i will start with muffins and a loaf of bread for my night shifts.  i miss having my bagels cause all the cerals i can have are two sugary. The only cearels i can eat are froot loops , corn pops, captin crunch and sugary kid cerals. EVen though toast with jam and butter is about the same in calories, its proboly better for me than the ceral. 

so now that i have a plan I can push back at it and try this again. heres to trying again and not giving up! I will get this sooner or later! you would think about 26 years I would have a handel on it but PKU is an on going roller coaster ride even as an adult! 

it never stops and its always up and down. depending on the rest of your life an finances. Trouble is when my finances and life are off track it makes my levels off track and then having my levels off track makes me feel sick and harder to get my life on track. constant merry go round! 

well thats all for now. Wish me luck!
