A little better

Feb 05, 2010

Started mushies today and for the first time in 2 weeks I felt a semblance of satiety. I made a sort of runny puree with a little boiled chicken and its broth, mashed potatoes, mashed carrot and mashed brocoli, added some lemon juice, an extra chicken broth cube, plenty of paprica and a little mustard and I thought the result looked a lot like baby food but it tasted pretty good. It would have been better if I'd used a little less broth, but I thought I'd make a gentle transition from the previous all-liquid diet.
I had my first Jell-o since the surgery too, since that too had been forbidden to me and although I never liked Jell-o before, I felt like I was eating one of the best deserts! LOL
I don't like the fact that I'm thinking about food so much. For years I have been trying to learn to not center my thoughts and activities around food and for the most part I had been successful. Now, however, I have to re-learn how to eat with my new baby stomach and I can already tell it's going to be a steep learning curve, as old habits die hard.
