I am Hungry | Arthritis Information

I am hungry, but then again I am always hungry.

Me stummy is growling.

I want a spicey chicken sandwich w/only mustard from Wendy's!! Ok make that 2!!

joonie39009.5430324074Ohhhhh, sounds good! Yeah, it does sound good Man, now I want to go to Wendy's!!! Me too! Maybe tomorrow!! I love Wendy's chicken sandwiches, too. It is really the only fastfood besides pizza that I crave (Oh, and french fries, of course).

But to curb hunger, my hubby as turned me onto those whey protein shakes. You know the stuff body builders use? The stuff is made from extracted protein from milk so it has all the benefits of protein, including making you feel full for hours, without the calories (this really isn't an ad - RE: IT REALLY WORKS).

I have to say, my husband used to be so moody (I suspected a blood sugar problem), but since he started these shakes he has been much more pleasant. Go figure-he should have started drinking them YEARS ago.....I'm starving all the time. Could eat a dead carcass off the side of the road if it was covered in chocolate!!!!

But for that one month I was off of pred, I did not even feel like eating. I thought I was sick. I would no longer go to sleep hungry or thinking of what I can eat when I wake up in the morning. I would also forget my food I would microwave, and when hubby would come home from work he would find my food hours later

I wish I could come off of pred again. But without the pred I would not do as well as I am doing now.

Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich here I come... tomorrow

MTX is a better option than high prednisone if that helps.

I want a big, juicy steak at a fine restaurant with beautiful surroundings and a good looking man to pay the bill. Good conversation is a must too. One, I don't feel good enough to cook myself anything more elaborate than fresh fruit, microwave or open a can.

I desperately miss the meanderings of a man's mind. Seriously, I miss it.

And, I want to get out and about.

No, fast food it not going to cure this craving.

Yes, I agree, sometimes we just need to make ourselves get out. We were supposed to go out to a nice dinner for my birthday, which was August 1, its now mid October and we still haven't gone because I'm always too tired after work and never feel like leaving the house on the weekends.

Deanna, where do you live? I'd loan you my hubby for an evening, he can be very charming when he wants to be!!

The just opened a new fancy brewery by our house and my hubby LOVES good beer so I told him we could go out to dinner after work tonight. My girlfriend will join us. I don't like beer myself and they just have sandwiches, salads and pizza's, nothing to fancy but it will be nice to get out. I just hope my energy level isn't completed depleted by the time I get off work at 6 tonight.

I did my weekly jab of humira last night so despite still being in a flare, I'm feeling better than I have in over a month.

I'm worried about the nausea and tiredness of the mtx. Also the fact that it takes months to work and you have to stop it months before you can even try to get pregnant. I'm 36 with 5 miscarriages and infertility so that would pretty much close the door on any future attempts of trying to get pregnant. But, it may be time to face that reality. I keep thinking well maybe next year I'll be healthy again and we can try but I know the time is coming that I have to accept that we may never have a baby.
