Hiya guys!!
I am just out to spend a bit of time at home to get a change of scene from the hospital, it is also my mums b'day today and we have been out for lunch which was cool.
I am plodding on, I am making progress, I have started to try some stairs in physio but it started off my other neuropathic (sp?) pains afterwards....but I think it is one of those things where I have got to go through the pain to get the gain and maybee the pain might be a good thing, I dunno, maybe it means I am getting better!! They have said another week so I can build up more stairs each day in physio and become more confident on them and also to try and get my head around all the diet stuff a bit. I am going o see the dietician again on wednesday (well I hope so anyway!), thats the day she is in and I am hoping she will help me write out a sort of menu kinda thing of what I can eat for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and tea- like have choices of this, this or this?? I am trying to write down all the foods I like so she could then do it.
I am just getting so fed up of eating tuna salad!!! When I get home I will be able to have more varitey, but it is getting a bit boring.
I thought when I had this bypass I would be able to eat anything but just smaller portions and healthy meals but now it doesnt seem to be the case it is all about getting high protein foods and getting my 90-120g of protein in a day!!! :sigh:
I have lost 4 1/2 stone though since my op, which does rock and at the time I did not see any other way out, I just want to try and find a way to make all this protein food more interesting and enjoyable!!! I am lovin' the soya beans that HC suggested- I think they where a very good find, they rock!!
Anywayz hope you are all doing OK,
