Depression and Fudge on Keto Diet

SUMMARY I request your best prayers. It is my best guess that the keto diet is causing my liver to detox and heal. That is why the symptoms have come and gone for weeks. All other parts of my life are just the same as before I started the keto diet. Some of this is complicated by aging so that my body does not respond to challenges as fast as it did. These challenges include my jaw, rash, cramps in legs, constipation, sinuses, cough, eyes, wrist, and sitting. Coping with all thee health challenges has been discouraging. There are nutritional supplements recommended on the videos by Dr. Berg to relieve these pains. But my funds are exhausted. So I have felt depressed and discouraged. That led me to start to fudge on the keto diet a little and a little more. At this rate, I could be off the diet before the 90-day goal. I need to request support again. I put most of my priority needs on an Amazon Wish List. Then any person can sponsor one or a few items. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3H7G9454ZEHE2?type=wishlist&filter=unpurchased&sort=priority These are arranged by priority and my shipping address is embedded. For those who like details here is a copy of my health update that I shared with my doctor yesterday. https://guidemejesus.blogspot.com/2019/08/my-health-update-for-august-20-2019.html There are other details to follow. FUDGING ON MY KETO DIET Recently I started to fudge on my keto diet. My intention was to stay faithful to all the guidelines of Dr. Berg about what to eat and not eat. For the first 6 weeks, I did excellently. Then the same keto rash and keto flu symptoms wore me down. I started to buy and eat things that are recommended to avoid. For example. I bought some pimento cheese spread with all kinds of additives that Dr. Berg would recommend to avoid. I guess next time I could make my own. But I wanted comfort food that reminds me of my dad and childhood. There have been other minor violations Nutella and unsweetened cherry preserves. Recently I suddenly woke from a dream because I was feeling guilty that I had been pigging out on a chocolate cake. This cheating has been small but at this rate of decline, I will not be able to justly judge the keto diet according to Dr. Berg in 5 weeks if I keep cheating more at this rate. DEPRESSION I had set up a Go Fund Me to raise the 333 dollars needed for the supplements and other aids. I announced it one time but I failed to promote it as the Go Fund Me site recommends. The result was that only 15 dollars were raised so far. I will need to ask again soon. It works best when I ask key individuals after I have prayed and others have prayed for me. The symptoms keep shifting and my funds are super low. I need financial help to get over this hump. I have been coping with the rash on my fingers as well as my arms and legs. There have felt different cramps in my legs as I sleep. There has been mild constipation. Some nights there is an abundance of mucus. I lost weight on my belly as well as my bottom so sitting in the desk chair hurts like it did not before. Some days my right wrist hurts more than other days as I use the computer mouse. I have had pains come and go on the left side of my jaw. Weeks ago it started and I hoped that it would have healed itself by now. But my body is not operating in an optimal way. The funds will buy the nutritional supplements address the causes of these symptoms according to the videos by Dr. Berg who has helped thousands of patined with the keto diet for many years. Even after the funds are raised it takes 3 to 5 days for them to enter my bank account. So I must persevere with the discomforts. I must muster the humility and courage to promote this fundraising campaign. ASK You are invited now to help me in this time of my need. Any support will be greatly appreciated.
