Last night wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I had wrote that I was uncomfortable with aches even after taking a scheduled dose of Tylenol. I couldn't take the last dose of Tylenol until 11:45pm. I waited it out, and finally, I felt relief from the aches and pains. I was able to fall asleep without a problem. At 6:00am I woke up a bit earlier than I had planned. I felt fine but grabbed another couple of Tylenol before going back to sleep for another hour. When the alarm went off, I was still ache-free.
Today I wanted to start weaning off the pills so I took the 12:00pm dose but skipped the dose at 6:00pm. I wanted to move up that last dose of the day from 12:00pm to 10:00pm so I could go to bed earlier. It's hard to take round the clock meds every 6 hours when you want to get 8 hours of sleep. So I haven't had any Tylenol since 12 noon and I am definitely feeling the aches again. Not really bad so I'll hang in there for another half hour. It's almost 10pm.
Everything else is manageable. We went to Souplantation for dinner tonight. I still find most foods funny-tasting or have no taste. But salads and most veggies are still appetizing to me. I filled my plate with lots of good salads and stuff and ate it all. Had a small bowl of mac&cheese and then a bit of vanilla frozen yogurt. I still can taste vanilla and choose it over chocolate. I just weighed myself in my pajamas. I made it back up to 118 pounds. Yay! Of course I'm a bit bloated from dinner, but hey, I'm getting there. I better make sure to keep getting my walks and exercise or I'm going to get fat. That is not where I want to be when these treatments are over. Fit, fit, fit! Like in the military. Ha ha!
