From March-June I was on a strict diet and ate so much salad I can't believe I didn't turn into a lettuce leaf. I also had to test my blood sugar several times a day and was forced to take a 15 minute walk each day (not an easy task when you are HUGE and uncomfortable). But like you said, the prize at the end is SO WORTH IT! Hang in there!!<BR/><BR/>Catherine (cat429)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6148005409865497698.post-68466501617446132632008-01-24T15:42:00.000-05:002008-01-24T15:42:00.000-05:00Gingerale helped with my nauseau.I'm glad that eve...Gingerale helped with my nauseau.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad that everything is going well.

I had to test my levels 4 times a day and it was really annoying.

I'm not too much help though, since I never got MS w/Toby, just nausea. :-(<BR/><BR/>But, at the very least, maybe you can make some kind of ginger salad dressing?? What about milk? Anything to coat the stomach would help, I'd imagine.<BR/><BR/>Did your doc give you any suggestions on how to combat the nausea while staying away from carbs?!?! Good luck.. and I am so THRILLED to keep reading your blog! This is going to be a fun ride! :-)Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15137862800708426790noreply@blogger.com
