It has been one month since the surgery. This surgery is still more about my emotions than anything else as I have had no physical side effects (knock on wood). This is the week I can add food that is more solid. Soft foods like chicken breast, cooked vegetables...etc. If there are problems I just go back to clear liquids for a day or so to let my system rest.
I started this post a couple of days ago and yesterday had my first full day attempt with food and did have a physical response to eating...basically my stomach was not thrilled and let me know in the good old-fashioned way by not allowing the food to stay down. Not fun!
I wanted to talk about how great my kids are this week though. We have changed many things in the household to accommodate the new healthy eating habits I want us all to have. I am so grateful because there have been no complaints. I don't know whether this is because they don't know how I cooked things before or because they are just awesome. I like to think the latter.
Anyway, some of the changes they have had is moving the pasta to all whole grain...not a hard switch and very tasty. Changing from white to brown rice. An occasional bag of chips. Fruits and veggies with sandwiches instead of chips. Just basic healthy eating. Anyway, just wanted to say they are so cool. I have been so blessed with this family!
