zevia is the only soda with stevia that I have noticed because I look for that.
here is to some weight loss.
I just bought some hard sugar free candies....that sweeten with sugar alcohols. I will have to go lightly with them as the last time I had sugar alcohols was the chocolate when I ate the entire bag and had extreme gas and explosive D.

I believe dannon makes a yogurt called zero that has stevia as their sweetener so few sugars carbs.

I bought some Atkins bars when I was on the South Beach Diet, and most of them were really good. But I bought one that Corey tried first. He said it tasted funny, and it gave him terrible diarrhea. I didn't realize that it was high in sugar alcohols. He was not happy with me lol.

One bar would not normally do that. He must have a sensitivity to the bar.

He has digestive issues. He's sensitive to a lot of things and everything runs right through him.

Sorry about that Kay.

I ended up having to cancel the fair I had been looking forward
to tonight. I got up with dizziness and a slight headache and problems
with my neck. So much so I had even slept well, but went back to
nap at 2pm. Ugh so much fun.

Its better now but someone is screaming in the neighborhood, its kids
but they sound like they are in my yard. Which they might be.

Well its been a nice day other than it rained all morning. I am relaxing
after going to get Derrick this morning he has track this afternoon.

He will spend the night and tomorrow we will go into town for the
arcs board meeting and then I'll drop him and Doby off at home.
I"ll come home and relax on Friday. Yesterday was a packed busy
day. So I'm ready.

I went to my doctor yesterday, I'm not sure why but seems I've gained
some weight and for some reason my blood pressure was acting up
yesterday with their electronic machine. So they waited a while and
re-took it with the non electric one. It was lots better, so I think
they want me to get a meter, and I need to find one I can take it with.

I also have to start remembering to take my sugar readings, I don't want
to and keep losing my equipment. That is not good.

I have an cyst on my right eye and will see the opthamalogist in May for
that and a diabetic visit, together. Ugh, I hate getting my eyes dilated.

could another dr. see about your eye?

2 months is a long time to wait.

does it bother you much??
bizi

Dmom3005 03-20-2019 09:55 PM

No it honestly doesn't bother me at all. And this is the opthamologist that
I always see. And most of the other ones in town have at least this
long of a wait. The doctor didn't really think it needed seen except that
I need a diabetic check up anyway. So I'll just have to wait.

The other thing is the one I don't want to do at all. I will probably have
to bit the bullet and have to see the doctor about the colonoscopy doctor.
I am not thrilled with this idea. I still don't want to have to try to get
a different example of taking the prep. To many are still being told they
didn't get cleaned out enough.

And I'm getting another bone density test at some point.

Any way,

Donna :hug::grouphug:

I rescheduled my mammo and bone density for tomorrow morning.

I'm sorry that you have to do all this unpleasant s- :hug::hug::hug:

If I can clean myself out, anyone can get cleaned out lol. When the time comes, let me know what they want you to do for prep, and I will help you out without blowing you away, Donna :hug:

The best BP monitors are made by Omron. I would buy one made by them. An arm cuff is much more reliable than a wrist cuff.

I hope you have a nice, relaxing day tomorrow! :)
