Next food phase started
I'm 19 days post op & am starting my next phase of food. I believe I'll be in this phase for the next 3 weeks. I started it a day earlier as I seem to be doing OK holding things down, and the nurse thought it'd be OK.
Breakfast
1/4 cup of Crystal Farms All Whites egg whites with 1 tablespoon of crumbled feta cheese
As it turns out, it was quite the large serving. I felt a burp, so I stopped eating figuring that was a sign from my stomach saying, "time to stop, I'm full." I probably ate 3/4 of it.
Lunch
2 oz of tuna fish in water w/ low fat mayo & balsamic vinegar.
I almost ate the whole thing. Hard to believe that this little amount of food can be so difficult to eat. I'm not complaining though because I don't want to hurt my stomach by just 'shoving" food in my mouth!
Dinner
2 oz of almond crusted flounder w/lemon & melted cheese
Haven't quite eaten that yet.
Snack (NOT the smartest thing I've ever done):
God help me, but I had 2 mini peanut butter cups today. Why? Because old habits die hard. IDK why I did it, but I enjoyed the hell out of it. Yup, need to focus on snacking on healthy things. I know better!
Also, had a harder time getting my liquids in today for some reason. I worked from home today because of the snow, but it seems that I struggle with getting enough liquids in when I work from home. What's up with that?
