Day 13, first outing!

Feb 11, 2017

My Dad took me to the grocery store today.  I wanted to go to the Met because I love the Met and know the store inside and out and could have been in and out in 10 minutes, but my Dad wanted to go to the other, bigger store that I hate because he gets points there.  We were there for an entire hour, and it was so packed I was terrified someone would crash their cart into my incisions.  It worked out fine though, and I got a lot of walking in, which was good.

I got most of the items on my list (cottage cheese, greek yogurt, cream soups, refried beans, etc), but still need a few more things for my puree stage.  No hurries though, as I don't start that for another 3 days.

I had a medicine cup (30 ml) of fat free cottage cheese today and it was so yummy.  4 grams of protein too, according to myfitnesspal.

I have been really focusing on getting my water in today and tried some chocolate herbal tea too.  It was delish, but I could only get a few sips down before I had enough.  I think I'll try peppermint tea next time.

I'm behind on my shakes because of shopping, so I probably will have to stay up extra late.  That's too bad, as shopping wiped me out and I'm fighting to stay awake now.  I also got really hot shopping, then really cold when I came home. I changed, washed up, bundled up, and am now sitting with a heating pad.

I've been coloring in my adult coloring book to pass the time and now want to go out and get a bigger pack of pencil crayons.  I only have 24 colors and would like at least 48, lol.  I'd like to add a photo here but it won't let me.  Oh well.  I'm so tired I can barely keep my eyes open.  Maybe a short nap will help.
