| Oct. 18th, 2007 @ 03:55 pm So I went to the surgeon today |
|---|
and apparently it's urgent I have surgery ASAP so I have it on Wednesday. For the following 3 months, here is what I can eat...
Milk, cottage cheese, yogurt
eggs, veggie burgers, soy products, tofu
fresh soft fruit without seeds or membranes, bananas, applesauce, fruit juice
vegetable juice, cooked soft or overcooked veggies, avocado (yuck), vegetable soup, tomato
bread without seeds, cooked cereal, cream of wheat, rice, oatmeal, grits, macaroni, spaghetti, potato, refried beans, bean soup, muffins, pancakes
and then some desserts
In bold print at the bottom is says IF YOU CANNOT CUT THE FOOD WITH A PLASTIC FORK, DO NOT EAT. NO CHEWING OF GRINDING
Now, this is not a large amount of food spread out over 3 months. I bet I'll lose about 15 lbs on this diet over 3 months. YAY for that at least! I predict I'll be eating a lot of baby food. Can you imagine now being able to CHEW for 3 months?!?!
There's also the possibility they damage my facial nerve and my face is paralyzed for the rest of my life. THAT is scary! |
