Liver, UGH



Recommended Posts

Having had my blood work done at 6 months out it was determined that I am a bit low on Vitamin B 12. I thought I'd just add sources to my diet instead of taking a supplement.

I went to foodtv.com found a recipe, went to Whole Foods, bought some liver, cooked it up all like I was told.

Took a bight and immediately thought is tastes like a dirty barn smells. But the second bight wasn't too bad.

I didn't realize I was hurrying it up in my mouth.

By the third bight I knew it was all going to come back up.

OH For the love of god, this is horrible.

This is the worst PB to date. I write in present tense because as soon as I think I am done, there is more. It's like an informercial, "No wait, there's more."

The lesson to take away from this LIVER=BAD.

I had never eatten liver when I was a kid because my parents hated it. When I had my first job as a salid girl in a 5 star resturant the chef Ali made liver and he told me to taste it to see if it was seasoned properly. when I told him I had never had liver before he told me to try it. If I didnt like it I could spit it out. I think it was so tasty. and from then on I loved liver...if it was cooked properly. My grandparents have a tendency to over cook it and make it dry or chewy. chewy meat= bad

Yeah, I've worked as a chef and it was cooked fine. It was absolutely not over done.

It's a texture/band thing I believe for me.

My co-workers were digging it. I still work in a kitchen, hence being able to cook liver in the middle of my day...

I have always hated the texture of liver, and if I take a bite of something that has a similar texture, I start gagging. Oh, and the smell... I'm almost gagging just thinking about it.

My step-mom made beef stew once....she used liver in it. I knew it was liver the second I stepped in the door, and she insisted it was not. I went hungry that night, there was no way I was going to eat that, she finally 'fessed up the next day.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
