STARTING TO EAT REAL FOOD
Dec 08, 2010
It's not as easy as it sounds. I can only eat 1/4 cup of food at at time so a real meal is out of the question. I had 1/2 a scrambled egg for breakfast with 1 tbls of hummus on it mushed up. Lunch was 1/4 LF cottage cheese and dinner will be 2 oz of tuna with 1 oz of LF cream cheese on it mushed up. I still depend on my shakes to get my protein needs and help with the liquids. I drink 3 shakes a day and 24 oz of water, tea or crystal light to make up to the 48oz needed. My protein is about 80 grms a day. So I am staying on track. I can't wait until I can have a small meal with more than one food.... Like meat, starch and veggies. I miss my salads right now I am down from 234 to 207 and have been going down a lb a day so that is good. I have another week before I can start eating something I can chew. I know this will all get better but I miss going out to lunch. I don't' care about volume in food just something that is normal like a salad or a bowl of soup.
