I am keeping track of my food per day and time taken. Out of interest and to help me plan ahead. I am following Sunderland Royal Hospital's plan.
Day 4 Post op Saturday 25.5.13
5am Meds Lansoprazole, paracetomol, hrt and hayfever all taken with bottled water. ( I had taken all up to bed with me) I sipped water until 5.50am
6.20 1/4 wheatabix with 125ml of warm milk I did not eat all. I had about 2.5 teaspoons. It took just under 15 mins to eat. Meds taken with breakfast Urso acid , a-z vitamin, docusate.
7 am - 9am I had a herbal lemon and ginger tea 1/2 a cup. which is about 75ml I also supped the rest of my water bottle so thats 300ml down
9.30 am mid morning protein snack - today was fromage frais. tiny pot two teaspoons.
10.15am -11.30am continued with fluids I had another herbal tea 1/2 cup and sipped water stopping before full.
12.30-12.45 lunch. one soup spoon of puree game soup and one aunt bessie mash ate 2 teaspoons of it. also had paracetomol.
1.15 started my fluids again. Kept sipping until 2pm.
2.30 -2.45pm protein snack fromage frais
3.15-4.30 drank more fluids (sipped water)
5.15-5.30 tried to puree cottage pie. The mince would not puree so hubby had his with veg and I froze rest. I had mash and game soup plus puree green beans ate 3 teaspoons of food. I also took the 2 urso acid tabs with dinner.
5.45-7pm fluids had 3/4 herbal tea followed by sips of water
7.30 I have prepared puree tinned peaches drained of juice and a tablespoon of greek fage 0%fat yogurt.
8.15pm continue to drink fluids until reached target.
I have had no problems so far but taking it gentle, apart from if I drink water too quickly I need hubby to rub my back. Like burping a baby.
So tomorrow is another day. Energy levels are ok. Husband goes back to work tuesday so going to try and get into a routine before he does. I have manage to read in the garden and gentle pottering around.
