Moving
I will be moving on Saturday. I get the keys Friday, have lots of friends over Saturday to help, Sunday clean my old place, monday turn in old key. I have a lot of stuff. And, I think just like throwing away food, i dislike throwing away my stuff. I think we all think our [...]
Something Else for the Article
(Im probably going to write a sociological article about my WLS journey.) I should talk about responses after surgery. I had a myriad of responses before surgery, and now am getting a few types of responses after surgery. Mostly, the people that knew about it wont say anything to me, until 1) we are in [...]
Friday P&C
ConsIm not taking my vitamins/medication that I should.I am very overwhelmed with school.I will probably be moving, and I hate moving.With the move, my budget is now stretched too far.Lunchables are now gross to me. And, I need to stop buying bad foods (baked cheetos, while delicious, are not good for me).Still not drinking. Anyone [...]
Foods
So, bologna, that was perfectly fine two weeks ago? Now my stomach refuses it. Silly thing. I miss chicken. I miss being able to make chicken into anything, or just eat it plain. Turkey is so expensive! I can buy turkey cutlets, but its like 5 bucks a pound! Argh! I am about to (well, [...]
Stuff
My therapist says I dont have a disorder. If my food obsessions start interfering with my daily life, i’ll have an issue. Otherwise, she chalks it up to a new eating habit. I also have a short appointment with the facilitators of the body image group. Part of me is reluctant, because someone struggling with [...]
Trials in Food
Vegetarian sausage and gravy? No go. bleh! Tasted bad, and my body didnt like it. Tea with sweet and low? Awesome :-) I will try the splenda tomorrow, see if I like that. Otherwise, I can deal with sweet and low. (splenda and saccharine tablets were gross, and most other artificially sweetened things dont taste [...]
Meals
(Thinking out loud). In the fridge, for this week, I have turkey meatloaf, italian sausage soup (not as good as my dads, but passable), italian sausage tomato sauce, and two turkey/cheese/small crackers lunchable things. (I also have 4 servings each of the sauce and the meatloaf in the freezer for later). Monday: Holiday! One serving [...]
P&C
Hmmm. Cons:Threw up once. At least I know the difference between “Hey, my body cant handle this” and “Idiot, you ate too much” vomiting now. :-)Still intolerant to Chicken.Eating bad things. (Potato Chips, fruit snacks, chocolate).Not drinking enough. Water just doesnt do it for me, and a lot of artificial sweeteners are not good either.Hit [...]
Portions
I really like my Gladware Mini cups. Four ounce containers, filled half full, is about that I can eat right now. Ive stopped getting mad at the food that I cant eat. But, I still have this pathological desire to eat all my food that I serve me (or that gets served to me). I [...]
Foamies
Okay, I finally got a case of the foamies. At least, the first that I actually noticed. I felt kinda icky, then noticed that my nose was running. And I was swallowing a lot. This was the “one bite too many” throwing up. Which was different than the horrible cant stop salmon throwing up, so [...]
