my week 4 experiments



Recommended Posts

Woke up this morning on the 1st day of Soft food. decided id see how bad having fats affect me. ( had whole egg on day 1 of my very soft, did not go down well but not bad. ) and I am happy to say, 1 cup of cafe creme down and no ill effects.😁

the big test will be tonight and see how some chicken does.

May it slide down smoothly and neither get you with its spurs or try to peck your esophagus to death! meat and me still have a very tenuous relationship, worsened by the fact my Previous Pouch does not like Greek yogurt or cottage cheese. She sort of tolerates ricotta and harder cheeses. like chedder, gouda, Monterey Jack if it's pepperless, mozzarella and occasionally Colby. Weird isn't it? I cut the cheese into postage stamp sizes , chew- chew, she probably sighs but doesn't send it back up. Lady cream of cauliflower last night, use the Green Giant broccoli, cauliflower or cauliflower medley in it, 3-4 meals of it, I take out and 1/4 cup, try to be optimistic but she usually makes me stop before the mini- bowl is empty. Last commodity box I got had multiple cans of mixed vegetables so make some sort of veggie Soup, been thinking I might branch out to the almond, coconut and cashew soup based I saw at Wal-Mart, then try some seasonings for other tastes like cajun, Thai et, Spanish/Mecican, maybe even Caribbean?et cetera,

yeah, funny how things go like that. Sofar the only thing my stomach objected to was the Tomato cream Soups and that was week 1. Cottage and greek yougurt go down fine, even 2% fat stuff ( which I had to get as the store was out of the 0 i normaly get. )

Next on the list is lunch, Sardines and triscuites ,

Wish me luck

Did you realize that Tomato Soup is HIGH in sugar, especially the Campbell's and many people can't handle Tomato as a flavoring right away , comes later for most of us. One of my pre-surgery meals was tomato Soup, I would take a chunk of cheese, cut it into small chunks, put them inside my homemade biscuit dough, drop them into the hot t soup, put my see - lid on and cook them as dumplings. So so good, you would take a bite and there was the melted cheese inside. A memory I can't duplicate anymore.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
