The first part of the 12-week program is The 10-day Clear Change Diet Plan. It's a metabolic detoxification program. Days 1-4 are an initial clearing. You begin to eliminate potentially allergenic foods (dairy, red meats, eggs, coffee, etc...) and increase intake of supplemental nutritional supplements in shake and capsule form. Days 5-7 are the metabolic detoxification period. You eat only cruciferous vegetables, fish, apples and pears. (Plus the supplementation, which is now up to 4x per day.) Days 8 & 9 are reintroduction days. We begin to reintroduce approved foods and reduce the amount of supplements. Day 10 and beyond is maintenance. Slowly reintroducing foods and waiting 24-48 hours to see if you have a reaction. Very similar to my previous elimination diet except that one was 30 days, I had no supplemental support, and my doctor did not approve. This is being done through his office and we're being monitored weekly. Yup, I said "we." My husband is on board with me, which makes everything so much easier. ...and I must tell you he is a Saint for putting up with me. Strict diets make me very angry in the beginning. Mostly because we're still trying to figure out the new routine. (We're now on day 6.) BUT IN MY DEFENSE: Saturday, January 11, I went to bed at 11:30. My husband woke me just after Midnight to tell me we had about an inch and a half of water in the basement. We didn't really know what to do, so we called the insurance company, who told us to call Servpro, who told us to call a plumber. (Of course, these things never happen at Noon on a Wednesday!) My husband shut off the main water, because we couldn't find the source. We put a call out to all our friends on Facebook and went to bed. We woke up to nearly 3 inches in the morning. Apparently, our perimeter drainage failed, and because we'd had a major thaw, the water found its way in. DH Ran to the hardware store and bought a pump. Two of our friends showed up with pumps. 3 men, 3 pumps, 2 shop vacs, and several hours later, the water was outside instead of in our basement. Servpro and the insurance adjuster came on Monday. Our contractor came on Tuesday. The basement is partially finished, so they had to pull up all the carpets and linoleum, and cut all the sheetrock up two feet. We still had boxes and boxes of stuff stored down there from our move. We spent the next few days sorting through sopping wet cardboard and trying to rescue mementos. Most homeowners insurances don't cover outside water. We are lucky in that Nationwide will cover up to $5,000 if you have a sump pump or perimeter drainage. (While re-reading for typos, I read this in Dennis Haysbert's voice! LOL!) It was enough to cover the cost of drying it out and doing the demo (...for which I am wholeheartedly grateful), but it's certainly not enough to repair or replace what we lost. We called a couple of dry basement guys. They can install a sump pump for $2K, but don't recommend refinishing unless we install a 10K system guaranteed to keep the basement dry. First the roof, now this. (Ugh!) The band has cut back on my dates because the girl I was brought in to replace has decided she wants to go back to full time. And to top it off, the hip surgeon responded to my email regarding the second opinion. He reviewed the arthroscopic surgeon's notes and agrees with his conclusions. So I'm in limbo. Not bad enough for a replacement, but too advanced for repair. My injection is scheduled for the 30th. Let's hope it works! You know how they say stress makes you fat? Yeah. I'm feeling frustrated and fatalistic right now. Can't even celebrate the above loss because I don't trust it. I'm trying to stay positive, and remain grateful.

First entry of 2020. Hate that I'm back at 200, but it's a nice even number to start with, huh? I just emailed my original hip surgeon to let him know I am in proverbial limbo and asked him to refer me to another arthroscopic surgeon for a second opinion. If there is anything that can be done, I'd like to do it. I told him that I felt like I'd been told to sit down and deteriorate. It took him a month to look at the MRI Results and refer me the first time. I wonder how long it will take to hear back from him this time. I'm hoping he will decide to just replace the dang thing. I'm still late with TOM, but I'm okay with that. It's much better than what was happening before. I am feeling much better. Pretty sure I started minor hot flashes this week. (sarcastic YAY!) We are back to the naturopath this afternoon. DH and I will be starting a 12 week diet program through them beginning next week. I'll let you know what it's all about once I find out. Have a phenomenal week!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I feel like I have come back into the light! TOM is still late, so it's probably because I'm not perpetually PMSing. LOL! (In part, at least.) It was a wonderful Christmas. The kids (my son and his GF) dropped by unexpectedly on Christmas Eve and joined us for dinner before having to head back to her family celebration. They came back afterward, watched "A Christmas Story" with us, and spent the night so we could do our Christmas morning together. They originally planned to go to her sister's afterward, but they decided to stay with us for the day! We all headed out for Chinese, came back to the house to pack up, then they headed off to her Aunts for the evening. It was such a nice surprise to be able to spend so much time with them for the holidays. I got through my first solo wedding gig. That was nerve-wracking, but fun and done. Phew! I am still waiting for a phone call about the injection. They are supposed to have referred me to ANOTHER doctor closer to my home. I have left 3 messages for them to let me know who that is so I can follow up with them. I received one call back, but all she could tell me was that a referral was sent. Whomever sent it did not indicate where she sent it in the notes. I expected a call back with that information, yet I've still heard nothing. The messages I left for them today were not as upbeat and sunshiny as I usually leave. Their outgoing message does not indicate they are out of the office today. I have no more gigs on the books until June, although I suspect our schedule will begin to fill up starting in May. I begin physical therapy on the 2nd and I'm hoping this injection will get me back to optimal performance level (and exercising) again!

*EDIT TO INCLUDE:
Finally got the call!! Apparently my local hospital does not perform injections through radiology like other hospitals. My options were to be referred to their orthopedic office to become a patient and be re-assessed, or be referred to a hospital 45 minutes away who will perform the injection based on current assessments. My injection appointment is the 30th. Thank goodness I got that done this year! :D

Probably shouldn't have stepped on that scale. Holiday baking, dinners out, movie theater popcorn... At least this time I know it's probably what I ate instead of the usual struggle to keep the weight down while eating very little. I am feeling a bit better emotionally. We connected with a couple of friends this past week and it really helped! Thank goodness I didn't call and back out. We're still waiting for a call to have this injection into my hip. I've decided that if it doesn't help, I'm writing a letter to the doctor about replacement. Why wait until I am debilitated? In doing so, I will have compensation injuries. I have too much stuff to do before I'm too old to do it. Quality of life, Right? OH! Have you noticed I haven't mention TOM in a while? I'M LATE! (Finally, a month without bleeding!) Fingers crossed. :D Well, I'm off to the bakery (No, not for goodies. For the 7-grain sourdough that doesn't bloat me.) then back to finish wrapping and put the dinner plan together. Hope you all have a wonderful holiday, whichever one you are celebrating this season.

Well the news was not great. The arthritis is too advanced. The doctor showed me where the cartilage was thinning. He showed me the bone spurs. He showed me where cysts have begun forming on the bone. As a result, he feels I would not benefit from surgical intervention. So I'm in limbo: not advanced enough for a replacement, but too advanced for a repair. He suggested we try a steroid injection, a round of anti-inflammatories, and PT. I can't even tell you how utterly deflated I feel. The injection seems to work for some people, maybe I will get lucky and this will hold me until I need a replacement. In the meantime, I'm just devastated. I broke down and ate a bag of chips and dip. First time since I discovered the nightshade sensitivity more than a year ago. It wasn't as good as I had remembered, and it certainly didn't make me feel any better. Saw the Naturopath to follow up on the blood tests. I was extremely low on vitamin D, so we added that to my regimen. It may help with the depression I've been having. Also added a B-Complex. I printed out my crazy cycles for her and she has decided to switch me from a supplement which helps metabolize estrogen to a supplement with helps stabilize perimenopausal symptoms. Of course it had to be ordered, so I haven't started it, yet. Still trying to get through a day without crying.
