Thursday Roll Call
Good evening all,
Today waws my two week post op dr's apt and all went well. My doc gave me the go ahead to start pureed/soft foods and to start slowly introducing a general diet. YEAH!!!! No more soup or clear liquids, time for something with tastes.
Actually don't tell him, but I have been trying pureed chicken and tuna the last couple of days. I was worried about not getting protein so I cheated 2 days early and yeah me, no negative reactions.
For lunch today to celebrate, I cooked myself a hard boiled egg, and had egg salad. It was yummy!!
I am still having issues with protein. I ordered the Vanilla by Unjury and it is ok. Tastes like very sweet marshmellows. So today I add a few frozen no sugar added fruit pieces to make a smoothie. It is ok. I wish I could gulp it down but no, I must sip it. I am forcing myself to drink, but on the brighter side, every sip of the protein drink I take a sip of water. I will get my fluids in this way!!!!
Well, I am off to brave the traffic as I need to get to Bass Pro Shops tonight. YUCK about driving out there.
Take care and stay safe
Debbie
