Eyes

I've been flaring a bit lately.  Not sure if it's due to being back on the IP/IPA plan.  And I needed to take those Prednisones a few days ago.  I'm beginning to wonder if I should take a few more.  

In the last few days my face has become pimply.  Not that I have pimples.  It's more along the line of psoriasis.  The worse part about this psoriasis on my face is that those pimply-es are right near my left eye.  It upsets me.  I want to cry.  It's itchy, and it scares me of - could I loose my eyesight?  NOT something I want to lose.  So I get stressed over it, which doesn't help calm the psoriasis.

I don't know what to do.  I have been putting some Metro cream as near as I can on my face, but it's still there.  I'm upset.

Started this a few days ago......and got busy......and in pain.

Oh great, more whining about the pain?  No.  

So onward

We were watching Trust Me I'm A Doctor a few nights ago, and he was doing a study on a) protein and b) exercise.

Now with the protein I know from my FB IP/A sites that when someone posts they want to have their 8oz meat and then a package for dessert OR they want the package with the meal, that they can't have the whole 8oz and a package.  The others say that you can have a package with 4oz of meat though.  Apparently you are not allowed to have 8oz and a package.  Confused?

Then they ask why.  The story is that you can't have that much protein at once, the body can't handle it/use it.  Which leads me back to the show - it's true.  The body can only use so much protein, and if you have more - it just turns to fat.  Explains why on Dr Poon I wasn't losing weight as I was eating chicken breast after chicken breast when I was hungry. Per Dr Poon's directions.  Guess it was too much for my body.  I said to AJ now that I understand the why, I will watch to make sure that I don't over do protein in one sitting - or during the day.

The other about the exercise - they did a study to see if you burned more fat on a full stomach or empty stomach.  Turns out women burn more fat on a full stomach but men burn more fat on an empty stomach.  Lesson there is - I should be first having breakfast/lunch or dinner then exercising...... ugh yeah.  I'm just not an exerciser.  Though I do shovel some snow in the morning, unfortunately on an empty stomach.  Will need to work on that.  And maybe one day getting in some more exercise.  Summer is coming, and the garden is waiting.....  that will be my exercise.  Walking Jax, I don't really count as exercise so much as it's just a bit in the morning after his breakfast/before mine and a bit in the evening.  Summertime, probably will be more walking mid morning/ or afternoon so that will probably work better.

Time change this Saturday/ Sunday.  I'll be sleeping thru it.

on Saturday night.....
