Day 15 25 Days Left to go

and i maybe in trouble,

as many of you know i am a big man, i mean in weight, height and all that crap, but i am guessing no matter how large you are you are not suppose to lose 21 pounds in 13 day, and the last 10 pounds were since last Thursday, oh that is so not good.

I been pretty messed up all weekend, the mouth sores are getting worse, 2-300 they all kind of run together now, they put off this foul smelling, foul tasting liquid, add a little blood, and it makes you not want to eat or drink.

so i haven't.

boom goes 10 pounds.

i have started showing all the signs of dehydration, cold clammy skin, fatigue, change in urine, damn i knew most of this stuff from when i lived in the desert, its one of the first things they use to teach you in health class, they don't anymore from what i understand, because of all the air conditioning units out there now, well when i went (late 60's-Early 70's) no A/C..so you learned.

but i see the signs of dehydration, mentioned them to the Dr. today and i have a date with some IV bottles from now on, a couple here, a couple there and i should be good, for now.

but all in all i think since this all Begin i have lost close to 30 pounds, not like i could not afford to lose it, i am thinking if i do this right, and keep from getting too sick in the process, i may end up cracking into the 290 range before i stabilize.

now that is sad.

i will update you all tomorrow after my battle with the bottle, at least i hope it will make this headache go away.

Oh Cory, hang in there! I'm glad they're going to do some IV for you. As miserable as you are, you will feel better when not so dehydrated. I'm thinking good thoughts for you.

IV fluids are your best friend. I watched my wife go from not being able to stand to fine in 1 hour thanks to IV fluids when she was severely dehydrated.

We are proud of you!
