Meet with the Nut!

Feb 28, 2009

February 26th I meet with the Nut.   She went over the post op eating plan with me.  I will start right off with pureed meat even while in the hospital.  She says I feel full on 1-2 T. of food.  A lot of what she was going over with me I already knew from doing so much reading and being on this web site reading.  We talked about the stuggles I was having with the liquid diet I am on.  The shakes and thick, I have a upper respiratory infection with thick drainage and ofcourse my friend gerd.  All of these combined are making it difficult for me to get the shakes down and keep them down.  I explained to her how I examined the Nurtrional values of the shakes and bars and feel I could eat the same amount of values/calories eating normal food.  She smiled and told me I was too smart!  She said while she can not officially tell me it is ok to not use the shakes, she has had several patients that did exactly what I told her using chicken yogart and cottage cheese and lost weight.  She said the key is to just lose wt, that is what he is expecting.  Well I am, so we'll see what he says. wt  228.2
