Frozen Cooked Rice

On Friday 22.dec.2023, he is still not feeling well, having to make 3 trips to the WC in the morning so went to pharmacy to buy activated charcoal and rehydration salts. Ate brunch and then went to care center to drop off items including 2 packs because they use around 5 pieces or more per day. One Teena M size pack has only 10 pieces MYR 17.50 nett.

1.33 pm - I ate the remaining two containers full of frozen cooked rice from about 1 month ago from the elderly's dinner that wasn't eaten. The above photo was taken after I have eaten most of the frozen rice from the container on the right. Both containers are filled to the brim so that was quite a lot of rice and I ate them all with nuts. I just pour hot water onto the frozen rice so the hot water turned cold and the frozen rice is no longer frozen and ate them as cold dessert.

Morning 43.1

Next morning 42.5

This number is in line with those studies that say freezing turns starch into resistant starch which has lower calories. That is why the number went lower although I ate two full containers of rice because they are frozen rice with starch that has turned to resistant starch.

*** Status ***

7.48 am ish reading 14.2 which is high as it was taken before breakfast so he advises the elderly to not eat too much simple carb food such as biscuits. It has been high for the past 3 days because the elderly always feel hungry and is snacking and the elderly's system is not responding to the max diabetic meds. Last resort is to request doctor to inject insulin and the care center needs to test blood sugar and calculate the amount of insulin to inject every day.

11 to 11.30 am - at care center. He talked to the elderly's room mate's son. The room mate is 92 and has dementia, always mumbling which the elderly finds very noisy. The son said he no longer brings his mother to regular specialists consultation. Just let the care center doctor manage his mother's meds and well being so his mother doesn't need to commute to hospitals.

11.30 am - elderly walked out and ate lunch but couldn't remember what was eaten and how much when kid1 called to inform about the lunch she sent.
