Good morning everyone. How was your holiday season and new year?
We are starting off 2014 in Victoria. Visiting my family and friends. We arrived late on January 1st and are staying to early January 7th ( Tuesday morning) It is so good to be back. We have only been back to Victoria one other time since moving to kamloops. Our last visit here was February 2012. So almost a year. It has been hard being seperated from my family and friends and it feels good to be back. I have enjoyed visiting some of my old favorite places and walking through my home town. I defiently do not want to move back or to live hear but its great to visit.
I will admit whenever we travel I have a difficult time staying on track with my eating and my levels. specially since we have been eating out so much. I am not feeling the greatest and I can feel that my levels have creeped up. I did bring some low protein pasta, pizza pops and my low protein bread for breakfast with me and of course I am drinking all of my formula. its hard to keep control when I want to visit my favorite restaurants that are not in kamloops. Like Mychosen Cafe and Moxies. I am dehydrated to. However my pain is better than expected and I have been having ok sleep.
Today I am meeting my sisters and my best friend for pottery and then later another friend for starbucks or sushi!
Cole has gone fishing so it gives me a chance to walk around on my own. I am taking alot of photos and will be sure to share some.
I hope everyone is doing well and I will be in touch soon

I am PKU Strong 
Hello Amanda, I been reading your post for the past several months since my nephew was born. He was diagnosed with PKU and I am trying to learn as much as possible so I can better help my sister and my nephew managign the PKU. I am not going to lie I still think about every time I eat something “he is not going to eat this” he is not going to eat that” I want to focus on the positive, that he is going to be healthy. How can I help him and my sister without overwhelming them?I read you were frustrated by people telling you what to eat and what to do and I hope my nephew is strong enough to accept PKU. any words of wisdom will help. thanks Yadira
