Meat!

Aug 23, 2010

Tonight I think I am going to introduce meat into my diet. I'm 3 weeks out exactly. I am SO nervous that it will make me sick. But, only one way to find out.
I think I might go to Wendys and get a grilled snack wrap and only eat the meat out of it. Slowly, and dipped in a greek yogurt dipping of some kind.

I went to the Race Track on Sunday and it was difficult to see and smell all the amazing (but so bad for you) food. I realized I had the hardest time seeing people eat french fries. They have ALWAYS been my weakness and seeing hot crinkle cut fries covered in ketchup was torturous! Not to mention burgers, hot dogs, and pizza.

Anyways. That stuff is bad for me, and I SHOUDN'T want it.
I got a broccoli cheddar soup from Panera and ate a little of that. It went down well. Granted, I only ate a teeny tiny bit since I know it's pretty fatty and didn't want to risk getting sick. But it felt good to have something that I loved before surgery. It almost felt, ... dare I say ... "normal" .

I've been pretty proud of my pouch so far (knock on wood). She's been good to me. I've followed my surgeon and nutritionists instructions almost to the T. Scared to death that veering from it, even a little will make me sick.

Also, tomorrow I'm going back to my 2nd part time job at Lane Bryant. I'm going on vacation and need a little extra money. So I'm doing a 3.5 hour shift. I've been feeling good ... so I hope I can do it ok.
