More Days Under The Sheets

I do not like using the blanket, it gets hotter under it so I sometimes take it off but will put my body under it again when I feel cold especially with my limbs. There is no perfect temperature for me so I would prefer it not to get colder but it gets colder because my country is just influenced by the weather in cold regions of the globe.

I remember when I was just a younger we take a bath outside the house because there lies our still alive artesian well where many years over our source of drinking water. It was very hard to take a bath during cold mornings before we go to school considering I am just young so we just boil some water and use it to make the water warm enough to be comfortable to use for bathing.

Cold Bath/Showers Are Only Enjoyable In Hot Days

But now I do not mind much the cold water during bathing since my high level of hemoglobin and red blood cells makes me endure more the cold water like a normal person does. It only makes my hands and feet numb but I do not get the shivers unlike the old times when I was as anemic as ash that was diluted in water.

It would be nice to indulge in hot beverages during these times especially hot soupy meals but I could not do that anymore because of the limitations in what I could consume and taken out with liquids going in and out from my body. Gone are the days when I could load up with five kilos or more with water and the dialysis machine can take it out without my blood pressure crashing because currently my blood pressure just crashes many times over because of the factors that I do not know of.

Overindulgence In Hot Beverages Just Makes Me Filled-Up With Liquids fast Especially In These Cold Days

Anyway eating much can raise my body heat for that matter and it gets uncomfortable really when my body temperature is raised like that especially when I eat fast foods, it doesn't make me fat but it just makes my body like any other person produce heat which doesn't help but really makes me feel unwell and it doesn't fight the cold weather although drinking hot beverages helps a bit in which i could never overdo.

I do not look at foods the same as before, I am always feeling the guilt whenever I eat because of the ingredients of the foods, the additives that contributes to my body's current bone condition like the phosphates, phosphorus, nitrogen compounds, uric acid, and such. That is why it makes me get picky with my foods

Eating Much Raises My Body Temperature which Doesn't Make Me Feel Nice At All

For me I just wanted to have some bits of protein in my diet because I needed it to maintain a near proper health support but in most times I just wanted to eat minimally because of the said reasons. So if I would get more frequent dialysis treatments I would surely change my eating habits which will depend on my urge to eat or my appetite which is my health complaint for many months now.

Regarding the weather it makes it hard for me to cope with it with all my dietary restrictions as a factor and my current health or body condition. All that I could do is to boost my blood's capacity to carry oxygen and nutrients to my body's cells so that I could endure the cold more than ever.
