Doing Well.

Ok, so its been almost 2 weeks since surgery and im doing great. Ive lost 17 lbs so far. The first week was pretty rough and was freaking myself out about malnutrition since i only had one kind of protein powder and could not stand it. And this past monday i got to expand my diet from pureed foods, to soft foods. meaning i can have crackers, toast, peanut butter, noodles/rice, eggs, etc. Very exciting since ive been getting sick of my pureed tuna, and soup and such. Starting school soon, so that will be interesting. im just preparing myself for questions to be asked. blahh... but otherwise, thats pretty much it.

Oh yeah, ive been trying to get most of my protein from my foods since i CANNOT stand the protein powder. My mom ordered unjury for me so hopefully i will be able to handle that. Just waiting for the to come in the mail.

It's amazing the difference in each doctor's diets. I coldn't have hardly any of the things on my mushie diet that you can. My protein shakes were making me gag at the end of my liquid period. Good thing is that now I have been on mushies for 2 weeks I actually don't mind the shakes again. I don't really enjoy them but I can drink them for the nutritional value and not gag! Good luck!
