Eatin' Good Tuesday....Beautiful

Evening Missouri....wasn't today just beautiful?  And tomorrow will be even better but then some much needed rain will hopefully be coming in.  My test today was quite uncomfortable....and the tech didn't say anything about what she saw.  I've had enough ultrasounds and scans to know when something isn't right.  They always say everything looks fine unless it doesn't.  Then they don't say anything.  So I will wait for the doc to call and see when she schedules the next test...ah, I love getting old.

Outta bed....NO coffee again....had to drink a lot of water before I left

Snacks....peanuts, protein bar

Late lunch....3 oz chicken and 2 slices cheese

Snack....handful of wheat thins

Dinner....biscuit, couple of tbsp gravy and bacon

Water is great since I had to drink so much before the test.  Vits are right on track.  The test ran long so I didn't make it to the farm but planning on going in the morning.

How did you all do today?  Let me hear ya.....

Good Evening Peggy... Sorry your test were uncomfortable today.I pray everything turns out ok.Maybe you just had a quiet tech today.
Only thing good here today is vitamines.Had coffee this morning  and at hosp.Had a couple bites of Gails cheeseburger minus the bread,a couple dill pickle slices and a few sips of water. Feels like i ate half a cow.
Today is one of those days i really question my decision to have had this crazy surgery.Because i wanted to eat so bad even though i wasn't even hungry.And couldn't even eat hardly anything.My crazy mind keeps thinking about oreos and taco bell.I am not hungry,feel like i have a cement block setting in my gut ,but i still am thinking about food.How flippin crazy is that?
No i am not taking my stomach meds anymore.Only had enough for 2 weeks.They seemed to help while i was taking them though.I will be telling the Dr about my spells and see if maybe he can give me another script for the stomach meds.But have a feeling not alot is going to help for awhile.
Hope you have a good day tomorrow.I love ya...

Love and Hugs Deb

First I want to send a huge hug your way....did you feel it?  Now, go ahead and get mad, upset, cry, scream....whatever you need to do to get it off your chest.  Give yourself permission to get upset and then to get rid of that pent up stuff you're feeling.  Don't dwell on it and more importantly, don't stuff it down.  Once you've had that session, you will be more clear headed and able to think and make the decisions that need to be made. 

Your emotions are all over the place and that's why you wanted to eat. (Even tho you can't)  We are emotional eaters and food used to comfort us....now it doesn't.  I go thru the same thing almost every day....with my counseling, that is actually beginning to improve.  (Praise God)  I do think you are going to need more stomach meds....you are showing signs of the same thing happening and I know you don't want to spend more time in the hospital.  Maybe your doc visit this week can help with that.  Looks like you are going to have a long list for him.

Deb, what you heard was hard.  But you can handle it.  I know you can.  I've seen you handle a lot of hard stuff.  We are all here for you.  We are praying for you.  We love you.  Hang in there. 

Hi ya all....
Another one of those days....But Im determined to make this work for me yet!!!!.
Breakfast~~ Crystal lite w/Isopure in it...made me a little sick at first...but kept going...
Lunch~~ Crystal lite w/Isopure still and about 1-2oz of Deli Turkey....That was when it all hit....AGAIN!!!
Snack~~ nadda
Dinner~~ Went back to good ol' Cheese cubes and Chicken bits....Yea keep it in...this time!!
Snack after bingo~~ Choc SF Pudding....upset pouch....but keeping in so far....
Im going to go back to basics starting tomorrow....eatting really slow, just like I did right after surgery. And going to maybe do the soft stage again...just till this runs its course...wouldnt hurt I guess....
Water is good today...more than I have had in a long time....yea!!
Vits...not too good today...got to work better on that too.....
Oh well tomorrow is a New Day....thank god!!!
Love and Hugs...

Hi kiddo....

Good for you for trying....even tho the results weren't so great.  I think the best thing is for you to go back to the basics.  I think your pouch got so used to you not eating that it is rebelling and you are going to have to teach it who's boss.  Just remember to get that protein in as you start over.

Yay for you on the water!  And like I said before, the balance of everything you have to do is delicate.  It takes practice and you are getting there.

You're going to be fine....and like you said.....every day is a new day!

Hope you have a GREAT new day!

Will call you sometime today for sure! ~ha  Sure hope your test results are not serious and can be taken care of easily!

Bec

Hi ya!

Sure doesn't look like you ate much...are you ok?  Or just cutting back....trying to shake things up a bit?  And you are the second person to mention strawberries....I'm going to have to look and see if they are in my store yet.  I LOVE strawberries.

I'm supposed to go to the farm and chase possums so if I don't answer I will call you back later if that's ok?

Talk to you later and sending hugs.

Tuesday what i ate

protein coffee

snack ;;;;protein bar

l unch;;;;; thin thin slice of deli ham and cheese in a roll up (no bread)

snack::::: laughing cow cheese wedge on two whole wheat crackers

supper ;;;1/2 cup of chili

snack ;;;;;atkins peanut butter cup

got in 96oz of water and all vits..... exercise was helping to build a fence ....try it is exercise for sure lots of pulling bending and stretching. and took about 6 hours...still need to do some more out there today then start on the fence for the garden....

Ahhh....building fence.  Brings back memories of growing up! Course I HATED it then....now I would probably enjoy it.  Today is supposed to be beautiful, too, so I'm sure will get tons more accomplished.  You are such a busy lady.

Looks like you had a good day....thanks for posting.  I think it helps the new losers to see how typical looks after a couple of years.  And that so many eat "normally" just so much less and much better choices. (Some of us still make poor choices...ME!)

Love ya!  And have a GREAT day!
