Journey through weightless surgery and beyond

November 1 – 3, 2019 – What not to do

I learnt a major lesson last night.  For the past month, I have only felt nauseous when I’ve had to much to drink.  I’ve pretty much kept my food consumption to the guidelines.  Well last night, I was cold and tired and decided I would have a slice of Toasted whole grain bread with cheese.  The bread I chose was Daves Killer Bread thin sliced 21 whole grain and seed.  Lets just say this didn’t sit well with my stomach.

Within about 20 minutes I was in excruciating pain.  I tried to throw up,  by shoving my finger down my throat, that didn’t help.  I finally curled up on my bed in a fetal position and cried myself to sleep.  Honestly, that was the most comfortable position.  I have now started creating a list of food that my body will not tolerate.

So check bread.  I may try this again in a few months, (does break freeze?).

The weekend was not much of a challenge food wise. I just need to remember to eat and drink water.  I found wheat / corn tortillas that are really pretty good.  Corn I know I can handle.   The wheat was my issue.  These are good,  if I take small bites and chew it a lot I can handle it.

Breakfast this morning  (Sunday November 3rd)  was the wheat / corn tortilla,  a scrambled egg and some Swiss cheese.  Something in that combination did not like me.  I was so nauseous after that.  It lasted for about 45 minutes.   To make things easy for the next week at work,  I’ll do Cream of Wheat for breakfast.  I also made ground turkey curry. and  Chicken curry.  Those will be lunches and dinners for the week.  I did buy a piece of salmon so I can do that with avocado for my dinners at home.

This is certainly an adjustment.  a few months ago,  I would have  ordered dinner from Doordash and had a salad and / or taco’s with chips.   No junk food was consumed this weekend.  Woot..
