I cheated

I was beating myself up at first but now I am ok.

 

So last night I felt like I was sooo hungry, I had a protein drink and it did NOTHING. Then I just decided to go to bed. Well I woke up this morning and still I was hungry. Honestly I thought I could gnaw my arm off. So I made really runny SF oatmeal. I had 4 bites (sips really because it was so runny) then felt guilty. After that fourth bite I was really full and threw the rest out too.

 

Who would have thought that little amount would make me feel so bad. My hubby (which I love even more now) reminded my I have gone 4 weeks now on a liquid diet and should be proud that even though I "cheated" it was with something healthy and that I really watered it down so I didn't actually eat to much of it. Was more like drinking the flavor from it. (just incase you don't know. I was on 2 weeks ALL liquid diet before surgery and have to continue on it until 06/09, for a total of approximately 41 days)

 

So first I will say I learned my lesson and no more cheating. Felt way to guilty for such a little amount.

 

Second I have already planned my first couple of mushies and will make sure I have them in the house when that stage begins. Fill on 06/06 and I should be on mushies by 06/09.

 

 

mmmmmmm, looking forward to

mashed potatoes

Avocado

hummus

fruit in my protein drinks

steamed veggies (pureed of course)

 

Here is to a better day tomorrow.

I cannot believe how different your post/op protocol was from mine! 2 days clear liquids, 2 weeks full liquids, 2 weeks soft food then on to my life. Also, my surgeon didn't believe in 2 weeks full liquids before surgery.
