about 70 pounds down

Thanksgiving and Christmas are over. I have pretty much stuck to not eating wheat and sugar things.  The other night we were at friends house, she always tries to fix for me.  She had been baking pies and knew I could not eat them, so she fixed me the let over crust with Cinnamon and a sugar substitute on it.  I had to eat it, I could not tell her I couldn't eat it after she had fixed it for me. Other people liked it and ate most of it.
I think I have been through all the things that happen when you eat too much or something you shouldn't.  Although I have not thrown up.  I have had dry heaves and the foamies, and after Thanksgiving dinner I think I had a sugar thing to happen.  It was about 2-3 hours after I had eaten.  All of a sudden I had a cold sweat and dizzy.  I made it to bed and after awhile I felt better.  I had eaten some sweet potatoes, I think there was pure sugar on top, I remember the grainy texture of it.
For Christmas we went to Granbury, Tx. and made it through a snow storm, and did the rest of the family.  I took nuts, a potato casserole and a breakfast casserole, and wine.  I have never drank much wine, but now it really seems to help my stomach/digestion, even though I'm not crazy about the taste of it.
I just got results of my last blood test.  I think I am low in many areas, I need to go over it with some knowledgeable people, like my pharmacist who is a good friend.  Getting down all the pills is a challenge everyday.  I don't think I have accomplished it.
