Whatcha eating today VSGers...Friday!!

Happy Friday and even better it's a holiday weekend. My brother served overseas and our family is so lucky that he made it safely home. I know that there are lots of friends and families out there who were not equally blessed and I encourage folks to take a few moments this weekend to think of the folks who haven't made it home and the ones they left behind. 

It's been a weird 16 hours or so. The last couple of months I would randomly feel some pain, almost like a really bad side ache, after drinking water. It never lasted long and didn't happen very often. I had decided it was mostly likely when I drank too much or maybe wasn't as good about breathing out when drinking. This week they have been happening more often and then last night it happened and lasted a really long time (multiple hours as opposed to the normal 5 - 10 minutes). I ended up calling the on call doctor last night and now I"m headed to the surgeon today to be checked out. Luckily things did subside last night and I didn't have to go the ER which was a huge relief. I really don't think anything is seriously wrong but it is frustrating to not know what is going on with your own body. And, I had to cut my walk short because of the pain. I think some of the other folks at the park thought I was cracked in the head when they walked past me and I was moaning. My meals are all off today as I try to baby my stomach at least until I see the surgeon. 

B: Protein Shake

L: Soup of some type

D: Heck if I know. It will depend on if the surgeon tells me to make any changes to my diet. I really don't like being this unclear with my daily meal plan. 

W&V: Started but I am being very slow with the water today.

E: I wish. I skipped boot camp and walking this morning just in case this is maybe something as simple as a pulled muscle. I don't think that's it but figured I would be overly cautious. 

NEXT?

B:  steel cut oats cooked in unsweetened almond milk, yummmmy

L:  summer roll from Wegmans, i think

S:  animal crackers

I hope you are alright.  Let us know what the surgeon says.  Good luck!

B: Quest bar - lemon + banana (I was very hungry this morning, probably because I had a very light dinner last night and played softball.)

L: Turkey and cheddar sub from Hess Express sans roll.

S:  Light & Fit Greek yogurt - toasted coconut flavor

D:  Probably a cheesesteak sandwich again without the roll.

W:  Ahead of schedule

V:  I forgot one!  I never forget but my morning was mixed up.  I will take it tonight.  Thank you for the reminder!

E: I am on track for my 10,000 steps but plan to walk my dogs around the reservoir tonight with my son. 

Thanks for the good wishes. The doc has a few theories and we are going to do more tests next week to see if he can find an answer. 

Happy Firday/ I hope to leave a little early today to beat the traffic. We'll see.

I'm so sorry that you're feeling so unwell!  I hope that your doctor figures things out sooner rather than later.  Do you have an appointment scheduled?
