Beginning Week #4
Aug 30, 2010
Here is what I have learned since my surgery:* Eggface is a Goddess. I have been making so many recipes from her site and each one has been delectable.
* Carbs work for me. As soon as I added a complex carb to my daily plan, my hated stall broke.
* I am determined to get my protein needs from food sources. I tried About Time Mocha Mint and immediately gagged.
* Constipation and the resulting impaction has been my worst complication so far. Oh man, I don't wish that on anyone.
* Still concerned over my ability to eat almost anything (albeit in tiny, tiny amounts). I have yet to find a food that makes me sick or clog or anything else. Course I have not introduced rice or pasta yet and plan to wait many months for that. Those were the foods I still had trouble with last time and I can just imagine what they would do to me now.
* I'm surprised that I have not yet had the urge to drink my beloved Diet Pepsi. For too many years to count, it was the only thing I would drink.
* I'm still pumped about exercising. I only get about 30 minutes a day but it is a hell of a lot more than I got pre-surgery.
* I have cravings every now and then but it never goes beyond that point. We had cheesecake and carrot cake today at work and I was able to sit with the group while they gorged themselves on the yummy food and I was happy to just drink my ice water.
* I have noticed though that I am finally starting to feel hunger. I hope that does not lead me astray.
Here's looking to one month out! Three days to go. :)
