1 month out..

4 weeks out and on regular foods, trial basis for each item. I took advice from the board and am consuming 1 protein drink,

1 protein bar , 1 greek yogurt and one string cheese a day. This amounts to 54 grams of protein and with my dinner and other bits of food here and there I am sure I am meeting my protein needs.

I am feeling so much better physically and mentally since getting of soft foods and soups. I use to like soup, I can't imagine

having soup again in the next year.

I have lost 15 lbs, I am happy with that and now am starting to exercise.

I still need to work harder on getting in my fluids and vitamins.

The short time of frustration and regret has passed and I still feel blessed to have had this opportunity.
