WOW....

Well it's been almost 3 weeks since I had surgery. I am doing ok. Yesterday I didn't have a very good day. I don't think I can tolerate tomatoe sauce or anything with tomatoe based anything. I threw up 3 times in a 1 hour period. I am fixing to go now and eat lunch. Probably a piece of deli turkey with swiss cheese and spicy mustard. I am just so scared to eat anything!! It's horrible. Hopefully it will get better. Well that's about all the update that I have for today :0)

Oh yeah, Han took a pic of me last night....here it is.....

Home....

Well I am home. I have been home since Friday afternoon. Had a bad day Saturday, thinking I had made a huge mistake having this surgery done. I have since decided that everything is going to be ok. :0) I have to think positive. I am starting the puree stage of my diet tomorrow.

B: 1 oz. scrambled egg substitute
1 oz. grits with 2% cheese added

S: 8 oz. CIB NSA
8 oz. diluted juice
8 oz. water

L: 1 oz. pureed chicken salad with fat free mayo
1 oz. grits with 2% cheese added (possibly)

S: 8 oz. CIB NSA
8 oz. diluted juice
8 oz. water

D: 1 oz. deli turkey
1 oz. beans, peas ?

S: 8 oz. CIB NSA
8 oz. diluted juice

Just a sample of what I may be eating tomorrow. I am scared but excited to begin eating. I haven't dumped yet. I hope that I don't!!

My blood pressure was up last week a little and I had a slight fever. Hannah and Richard have been staying with us. I feel 100% better than I have been feeling last week. :0)

Well more later!! SLP

Day Five.....

weekend, week, happy



Ok....so yesterday didn't go so well....I cheated......I ate a small McDonald's Cheeseburger without the top bun and a chicken strip!! I felt horrible!!

So far today has been better. I just keep thinking I only have five more days!! I am so tired of being hungry!! I don't know if it is all in my head or if I truly am hungry. I try not to think about food but....what's one to do when previously I admit I ate a lot??

Trying to start getting everything in order for next week. I am making sure I have things that I am going to need packed. I have to make sure my baby is taken care of...which I know he will be because my sister is taking care of him. But I have to see what days he isn't eating lunch at school and put all that together for her to send with him on those days. Whew!! It's a lot of work!!

I'm going to be ok though!! I just know it!! Well 5 days down 5 to go!!! :0) Later!!
