Puree Stage

Today is my first day on pureed food. Slowly easing my new stomach into eating again.

As of today I will be slightly obsessed with how much protein is in everything because besides having 1L to 1.5L of fluids, I must have between 50-60g of protein each day. Doesn't seem like a lot but as my stomach is much smaller it will be quite difficult.

Protein, protein, protein!

My plan for today (will see how I go) will be:
Breakfast - one scrambled egg with skim milk
Morning Snack - 180ml Chobani yoghurt and 1 tsp berry fruit
Lunch - 30g Pork, 1tsp Sweet potato, 1 tsp peas and 1tsp corn
Afternoon - Strawberry Optifast shake
Dinner - finish the day's leftovers or vegies if I have finished.

Fluids - water, diet cordial, skim milk

My egg this morning was very nice. I ate very slowly and only managed 3/4 of it.  I stopped after 20 minutes and seemed to spend the next half hour with small burps. I'm still learning what 'full' feels like and am too scared to push too far.

I will be having my yoghurt soon. I will keep track of what I am eating and will post later in the week if anyone is interested.
