12 days post op

Jan 15, 2012

12 days post op and feel really good!  Nothing to complain about, except that my belly itches!!  I guess that is a good thing considering that my wounds are healing.  I have been struggling with my emotions these last two weeks....crying a good bit.  But it feels good to get it out and deal with it!  If it was apparent before my surgery that I was a food addict, it sure is now.  The "break up" with food has been interesting and hard.  That being said, I am learning quite a bit and learning that food is fuel for my body!  My goal is to get to a stage where I feed my body and meet it's needs and am able to have "fun" all at the same time, while not going back to my old ways.  That maybe silly...but a girl can dream.  I am looking forward to cooking again.  I love cooking!  In fact I really love finding ways to cook light and make things healthy...My problem before was eating too much and also going out to eat too much!  

I am trying mashed up (to death) tuna with low fat mayo, extra minced onions, and Worcestershire sauce....and it's going down and I feel good!  I am testing the waters a little bit...I have to...this protein shake life is for the birds.  I will definitely become a protein bar gal as I progress in my journey!  :)
