re: Humpy Dumpty Falls
Hello, Well Humpy fell off the wall last night and all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't pick her up again. Not cause she broke, because she was a little too heavy still. Funny to joke about it now. I used o be so sensitive. I had pork, sauerkraut and potatoes. Hold the bread -n- butter please. Blended just every so smooth. It tasted pretty good until I had eaten about an ounce or so. I had a funny feeling starting to come from my lower old stomach area. Rumbling and an ache which made me immediately stop eating. I went over and re-thought the pork and potatoe mixture and chopped up a new batch without the sauerkraut. It didn't make me dump but the pain was like none other I had experienced since surgery on 1/26. I should have taken some of the codine Elixir I had and gone to bed. No I'll suffer. BooHoo. I walked and moaned. Moaned and walked like a child. Finally I fell asleep. This morning I didn't feel my perky self, so I made some wheat meal & flaxseed to warm the tummy. Sorry, I had my best BM in 10 days. I guess the sauerkraut the warm oatmeal did it's thing. Gosh I felt better. So warning don't eat it all, be careful.
Oh has anyone noticed how far I've regressed to early childhood. Thumbelina, TomThumb, & Humpty. Eating baby food, eating with a baby spoon, taking baby steps. No wonder I have regressed. Gosh I never liked Dr. Spock. Tell me again " I AM AN ADULT." This is only temporary. I apologize to all you post-ops that have had rough days. I didn't understand. It is not all about me. Sure I'm lucky to have the kids grown and out of the house. Lucky to have a supportive hubby & friends. It is great knowing that the last 10 days were about me. But being realistic my balloon was *****ed and my bubble burst. And last of all a definite reality check. Mommy please don't make me eat that nasty saurkraut again. I don't like it. BOO HOO ((HUGS)) Elissa
Hey girlfriend,
It happens. I did the same thing with potroast. I blended it nice and smooth. Tasted yummy, all of a sudden Bam(as Emeril would say). My stomach started gargling and then the pain. I didn't dump either. I also had a nice BM. lol. It's trial and error for us at this point. See ya Saturday!
I love your attitude towards all this I don't think I would mix all those things together but I have eaten pork, potatoes and kraut without any problem except gas. You know in the begining I felt like a little baby and regressed into early childhood also............I use to remember having to eat something every 3 hours or I would get nauseated!!! PLus i would take a nap!
I never did the baby food thing and only survived on pureed foods for about a week. I found I felt better eating some "solids" that were easily digestable such as saltine crackers and what not. Hope you feel better!! Hope
