refried beans & cream of wheat

Nov 04, 2010

yesterday was day six and i could not STAND  the thought of beef or chicken broth any longer!!! last night i made my husband dinner and i made some refried beans.  a teeny bit spill over the pot and i picked it up with my finger.  so i tried it...nothing bad happened.  so, hmmmm i served myself about 1/4 cup and enjoyed it.!! i took the first bite and waited 10 mins (as my dr instructed) and no bad reactions, so i continued.  it was so good!!my husband of course is watching me like a hawk..making sure i'm doing everything right and making sure that i don't over do it.  i have never seen him so concerned over me and it's feels great.

this morning i woke up at 5:30 and made him breakfast.  spoiling him because he's taking so good care of me .  i made cream of wheat for myself. i used the toddler portion (too cute) and it was perfect.  added cinnamon & 1/2 packet of sweet & low and it was AWESOME!!  so far two items off the list are a hit. 

ever since this surgery i have waken up early every morning.  i'm off from work and can not sleep in at all.  oh!! and i go to bed late too as if i have all this energy!!! has anyone else experienced this as well?  i can't wait to get back to work.  i feel so blessed to have done so well so far and can't wait to see the dr on monday.  i wonder how much i've lost?  hmmm
