food or no food?

food or no food?

i haven't been able to eat lately, which is bad, because I'm severly under weight at a whoping 90 pounds right now.  But, you'll be glad to know that my three yr old just offered me her powdered donut, I took a big bit of course, but little did I know, it was soking wet with slober!  I'm done eating for now I think!

You guys need to try to eat something...just "graze" throughout the day...just little bits of food and drink as much as you can to flush out the toxins!  I ate wheat toast...gatorade. Lots of bland foods...bananas are good for the "runs" and losts of potassium which is impt as you loose a lot with the diarrhea. I was not hungry at all for a good week and lost 10lbs as well.  My apetite was back after about two weeks...Just do the best you can!

Sorry, rebecca, but that was too funny, and too familiar! My almost 2 year old is always offering me something gooey to eat...ewwwwwwwwww
I just pretend to take a bite, and he seems satisfied! lol
Gooey is NOT good..................

Try the carnation instant breakfasts...those are WAY better than slim fast. I never liked 'thick milk in a can' and thats what slim fast tastes like. BLECH!!!
Those instant breakfasts are really good though. They taste just like chocolate milk, or strawberry milk.
ANd they have all the vitamins you need for the day.
OMG, I sound like a commercial lol

Dont worry, your appetite will come back, and when it does, hold on to your socks. Because it will come back with a vengence, you dont remember what it feels like to be REALLY hungry. But you will. once the w/d's start easeing up on you. If I hadn't started jogging to help the RLS, I would have weighed 1000 pounds.

If you can't eat much, try some of the liquid diet foods, slimfast etc, they will give you the nutrition and may be easier to stomach.

So i've been making my husband these protein power shakes.  I bought a powder in the grocery store called MLO Super High Protein.

Put it 3 heaping spoonfuls into the blender, 1 cup apple juice, 1 cup yogurt smoothie (any falvor) and all the fruit and ice you want.  you liquify it and viola- yummy and nutritious.

I think all those shakes are gross and when you're already in discomfort - something tasting good is really important.  

Thought I'd share.
