Good Day

I am feeling quite well today. Not a lot of pain in the old gallbladder area unless I press on it. Still have the marcaine drip pump thingy but that will be gone in a couple of days. I'm doing well with my breathing exercises and I'm doing ok with food. I've only had a smoothie and a piece of banana bread so far today. I'm just not hungry.

My smoothie was an interesting one. I saw the entry on this blog . It looked interesting and yummy so I thought I'd try it. I didn't have chia seeds but that was ok with me. So I put in the 1/2 cup of blueberries, the 1/2 avocado and blended it. Needed a little juice, so I put in a little peach juice. Wasn't quite there, so I put in a big dollop of low-fat Greek yogurt. It was quite yummy and very interesting. Not sure I'd make it again, but hey, gotta try new things, right?

I made John banana bread last night, so I had a piece just a few minutes ago. It was good, but nothing special. I ate it because there isn't much to choose from in the fridge. When John gets back from getting his truck washed, we'll go to Sprouts to get some veggies and fruits.

So how am I doing mentally....? Since no gastric bypass yet, I'm doing ok. I don't find that I am even thinking of food, really. It's like it's no big deal. As I mentioned yesterday, I only had ice chips for two days and I didn't even care. I wasn't that hungry, physically or mentally. Today I only ate the banana bread slice because I needed something in my tummy because it was growling. I really don't have much to say about this subject because I'm doing ok. Really.

John's home, off to the store we go.
