My relationship with food and 4th day update
Well its the 4th day after surgery. I tried to work today. Boy, it's 9 at night and my but is dragging. Owning a Franchise doesn't give me much time off. I realized I worked 4 hours Sunday on Sport Clips sitting at a desk, pretty tired, but did it. Today I put in 2.5 hours this morning and 2.5 hours this afternoon. In between I walked 30 minutes outside in the morning and afternoon. Sitting down I realize how absolutely tired I am.
Getting in food has been a challenge today. Couldn't eat this morning. Tired but couldn't keep it down. At lunch I tried to puree chicken in a can. As soon as I got it pureed and opend up the food processor and smelled it I wanted to puke. I had to throw it right out.
I find my stomach tonight is still very gassy. When I walked I got some of it out..but it seems like it keeps building. I wonder if it has anythign to do with the one glass of milk a day I'm drinking?????? But how else can I get my 60 grams of protien in?
I find that I still WANT food. But the stomach just can't handle it. Saturday night driving home from the hospital I passed a McDonalds and thought to myself Boy I could go for a Shamrock shake. Then, "oh yea, I'd puke if I had that!" sigh, drive on.
I walk in the house from the hospital, open the fridge to get some water and there in front of me is a home made pizza and a container from Chili's the night before. "God! that looks great!" oh yea. can't have it.
Sunday. I worked in my office in the morning, came out of my office to the smell of brownies and that pizza cooking for lunch. OHHHHHHHHHH. Drewl. Well my brain still works. Walk in the kitchen looking at it, I WANTED it, I had the kitchen scene from American Pie in my head and what I could do to that pizza and brownies. I thought "Kids, look the other way, pay no attention to what dad is doing to the brownies!" But oh yea. I'll puke. "Can I have my 1 oz of pureed turkey please?"
I'm assuming I'm learning new habits, new lifestyle and old habits don't die easily.
My stomach still feels filled with 1000 lbs of gas. Could it be the one glas a day of 10 oz's of Milk I'm having? Lets hope it dissapears soon! Well it's 9:10 and I need to eat my last 2 oz's of Pureed turkey and tilapia. cheers!
