So this is Day 1 of my blog. I figured I have spent plenty of time on the site why not make a daily blog. WARNING: Now this is going to function more like a public diary, most question I post on a questions thread.

So this is at the end of week 3 for me. I went to the doc today (well his assistant) because these dang stitches are not healing. I am on another antibiotic for another week. She looked at my stomach commented on the rashes ( allergic reaction ) told me the incision wasnt too bad and was pretty much done. (((see attachments))) I also asked about hunger because the past two days... Whoa buddy I have been starvin'! So she took me off the pureed diet and told me soft food for 1 week (not 2 yay!) as long as I tolerate soft food well I can progress to normal .

I was reprimanded for eating too much protein. She told me too much protein can cause kidney failure. WHAT?!? crazy right. Never go over 90 grams are much instructions. So when I asked her what to do if I got hungry since protein shakes are not really an option (depending on how much im at) she basically told me to deal with it. Well... umm okay?

After leaving the doctor office I go home and my phone has BLOWN UP with messages. Apparently my brother has been calling nonstop today. Backstory - grandmother and brother were both nurses brother went back to school grandmother retired.This past weekend I freaked about because my incision still looked infected after my 1st round of antibiotics. It was weekend doc office closed so I asked if she could look at them. She did I called after afters nurse got refill blah blah blah blah... So my brother calls me asking if I left doc already. I told him yes and long story short my brother doesnt think I am getting the appropriate care. He asked me to come see him tomorrow. Is brother being overprotective? Maybe But I am in NO PLACE to fool around with an open incision so I will go tomorrow and see what he says. Cant trust anyone else like family right!

Last topic of the night - FOOD!

I was put on soft food today and I was excited! So I cooked lemon pepper fish, sweet potato, and peas. Well I did 1/2 cup of fish 1/4 pea and 1/4 potatoes. 1 cup all together MISTAKE! I have been eating 1 cup of food but it never struck me that 1 cup pureed food IS NOT the same as 1 cup of solid food. Well lesson has been learned I will stick to 1/2 food total and if I'm hungry I can pick at some more. Im at 863 calories... might eat some cheese to bump it into 1000 as the doc ordered. 72grams of protein.

I think I can do this...

Fill in 2 weeks, cant imagine eating 1000 with a fill. We will see.
