My journey to a happier me!!

[Meggie moo]

I could eat a horse!!! Starving today

My appetite seems to have come back today with a vengeance - no easier post op lol

 

[Meggie moo]

It is hard work but I'm never really hungry, drinks fill me up. It's just sooo boring... Alternating soya milk, oat milk and lacto free semi skimmed as I discovered I can't tolerate lactose on the first week. Never had enough milk to notice before!! X

Ok so today is my first day on mush I can't tell you how much I've been looking forward to this - yet feeling quite anxious about having something other than liquid - guessing this is normal?

I only did one egg with milk and think I managed about 1/3 of it ate slowly chewed lots and feels like its stuck in my throat!!!

Wonder if that's how it will feel from now on when eating?

3 more days for you Paul x can't believe how quickly it's gone can you?

Almost no tenderness at port site either now - can really feel the port when I lie down - freaks me out a little bit lol guess I will come to love it x

 

[Tobi]

I was wondering how you were getting on with soft food

Can't say much about the stuck feeling obviously being pre op! Let's see what the more experienced banders will say - curious now xx

Yeah I know, all that wait and researching and to think its inside us! Same thing my port even standing I can feel it underneath, not really that bothered though.

Just been food shopping and brought tesco healthy option shepherds pies, cauliflower cheese, mash etc. Oat so simply porridge for breaky, cottage cheese, soups again.

I'm anxious and want to see what it's like eating, wonder if I get full etc!

 

[Meggie moo]

Still feels like my egg is stuck in my throat

Been and brought from m&s (never shop there normally lol) colcannon/ sweet potato mash, bubble and squeak, tiny cottage pie and shepherds pie - want to try them all now lol

Need to add marvel to them make sure getting protein!!
