Fatty liver

Fatty and enlarged liver

So I got the report back from my ultrasound I took the other day. Fatty and enlarged liver. So I am bummed out about that information. I am fat, 318lbs at recent doctor’s visit. So I expected a fatty liver. I still have to talk to my doctor over the phone to see what he thinks. Ever since I became type II diabetic in August 2021, I have worked on my diet. I totally gave up colas. So, I still have to lose weight. I asked AI if fatty and enlarged liver can be reversed. It can, just by losing weight. So my motivation to lose weight is really strong now. I had a former co-worker/friend die of a liver tumor a few years ago. His tumor took him out fast, it was very aggressive. He was in hospice care and within a year he died. So I know that the liver is an important organ that you don’t want to have any problems from.

My focus

I have to get my weight down. So I am eating more vegetables and I drink lots of water. I don’t drink colas anymore and I very rarely have a few  beers. I found in the past I lost 50lbs on the Keto diet. Lean, un processed meats, vegetables, fruits, water. Less breads and pastas. Low carbs and more proteins. When I lost 50lbs after I first found out I became diabetic, I was eating one meal a day and exercising 25 mins each morning. I have to find a diet and routine that I can keep up for a long time. So, I will be paying attention on trying to improve my health be dieting and cutting back on meals.

As I get older

I tell you, as a person gets older (I am talking about myself) , things that you used to do without thinking about it, you start to think about everything. At 52 my libido has dried up, so that fun is gone. The only thing I really liked to do was eat. I love food. Now I find that I have to restrict food. But I am restricting food for my health, my mobility and my personal image. I am tired of being fat and sloppy looking. In the future I hope to finally meet people and hopefully make more friends down the road.
