14 days of cream of wheat.....was NOT on my bucket list!

Jan 17, 2010

Hopefully two and a half days left of the full liquid diet.  The only thing that really goes down easy is cream of wheat.  I think because it really is pretty tasteless, I just put a sprinkle of sweet and low and we are good to go.  I never thought I would be so excited  to have cottage cheese!  I'm feeling pretty good.  Not a lot of pain.  I can sneeze and cough and it feels okay.  My biggest struggle is to get the liquid in.  I did really good today afte struggleing the last two days.  Hopefully I can keep up with it now.   I need some different tastes soon!  Had a serious revelation today...Food is not love....For years my family has expressed affection through food, any kind of food.  I realized today that my kids are being set up to fail the same way I was...sadly.  Grandma's come to visit and what do they bring, cookies, candy and treats.  It's actually pretty sick.  Hopefully I can stew over this and actually gain some real perspective now that I am being forced to view food differently.  This is going to be a wild ride!
