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.
