As a person who takes a lot of medication and us used to downing pills by the handfuls I have been severely brought up short by having to haul out ye olde pill-splitter. Among many of the adjustments I have had to make for my new small stomach is cutting my big pills in half. I have quite a few that need to be cut in half and now I take my pills one small piece at a time.
It's soooo boring and I had to admit I put this off as long as I can (well within the time lines that I have to take them in) Before: everything in my mouth, big swallow of water and down the hatch. There is quite a skill in getting them all down at once without any of the nasty ones getting stuck inside your throat somewhere.
Well I sure did get my comeuppance. Now I am forced to take a small piece, large sip of water and repeat, and repeat until it is all gone.
Anyway getting by that I had a pretty good day today. I cycled slowly for 20 minutes and intend to do the same again later. My supper was what I had yesterday...blended thanksgiving leftovers. I was real tempted to blend up some green bean casserole but figured, maybe the onions would give me problems. I guess my best way would be to eat simple combinations and keep the fancy stuff for down the road.
The things I am supposed to add to my food list was scrambled eggs, cottage cheese and yoghurt and the last two I will get this weekend, they are no problem. I really don't think I get along with scrambled eggs that much. They give me the burps. I will be real happy when next week comes and I can have Cream of Wheat for breakfast. I love hot cereals and this would be great as it is so cold
