new food eyes
Jul 17, 2010
7/17/2010Very few things taste or look good to me. It's as if I am seeing everything at a distance- nothing reaches out and grabs me anymore. We just came back from vacation; we went to Padre Island, so I wanted to eat seafood. I tried several things, but everything was too rich and I couldn't eat more than a couple of bites of anything. The smell of grease made me nauseous and stayed with me for days. We even skipped the waterfront grill we usually go to, because I didn't think I could stand the grease smell. This from someone whose favorite food groups were fats and starches.
When we got home, my grocery list included Fage yogurt, and egg foo young The yogurt is pricey, but fabulous. 10 gms of protein in 5 oz. and really yummy. Creamy even at 2% fats. I'm also back to drinking milk. I've always been a fan of milk, and it may not be the best for me, but it goes down without an argument, and I am getting tired, really exhausted, of my stomach and I not being on speaking terms.
Though I have used a food diary and strict calorie count before to lose weight, I didn't think I was going to have to do that this time. I may have to. It's weird having to be so careful about what I eat. Even salad throws me into mortal fear. I can just imagine the pain and don't want to feel that. We're going out tonight to a bbq place where friends play in a band, but the menu is not very new RNY friendly. I could take something with me. I may.
