O Doubt,my Constant Unwanted Companion!

Today was a little more difficult for me as far as the drinking was concerned....I WANT TO EAT!

There,I've said it! Now,I will let it go!

I am constantly worried about calories.Being onw of the only people who still havent lost weight at 5 dys post op I am questioning myself seriously even though I know that is crazy!

Drinks for the day:

3 cups of clear beef soup.It has about 50 calories in each cup I think.

1 scoop isopure protein 110 calories

A small little bit of sf puding in liquids generously 70 cals

Then I had about 100 ml skim milk...dont know how much say 45 cals

And as an encore I had a mushroom liquid cup-a-soup for dinner 70 cals

Only about 30g of protein though.

That is a whole lot...almost 500 for day 5. My goodness.

Part of the issue is that I add something to all water as I have a real hard time drinking water.So I am sipping something all the time but it is not just water.

What is going to happen to me?Am I going to out eat this sleeve right from the start?How will I do when I get to eat?

I am so full of doubt and then I really struggle to understand the instructions for This pureed phase.

It says: half cup per meal

6 meals per day

30 minutes per meal

Water,broth,fat free milk,fat free gravy ( whatever that might be) PUREED POTATO AND PUTEED VEGETABLES.

Two weeks long,food must have consistency of a smooth paste or a thick liquid.add spicey or dairy slowly and in small amounts.

I am really stupid and will have to look up which veg will go down well.I will start cooking fresh though as my tumm never liked instant anything,even before.

Will also consult a friend that had the surgery the 28th of Feb. About what she ate.Lucky girl is now on stage 3 with soft solid foods.

Just hope the next week passes quickly and I can start to drive my car ( dont know when I can)

Stitches comes out next Saturday!

O well,another day another whatever..LOL
