You know what happens when you start to celebrate early? You find out the celebration is going to be much later than you want. I don't know this yet, but it's what usually happens. So as I sit, super excited about my icky diet being over tomorrow- I know in my soul that the Dr. will probably tell me to stay on it for another week just in case I have to have another treatment. Ugh.
Here's a small list of what I've been eating the past week:
Water- I can have juice, too. But I prefer Water.
Chicken- grilled on the Foreman. Very yummy- but not e.v.e.r.y.d.a.y. blah
Fruit- Strawberries- YUM!!! Still not getting old. Unless I get a sour one, then I'm grumpy. Also apples, bananas, dried apricots. tonight? fresh pineapple on the Foreman. Uh, yeah- you heard me. :o)
Pepitas- Pumpkin seeds. Roasted/no salt. they have a naturally salty flavor that lasts for a milli-second. I'm getting tired of them too.
Home-made bread. not in my home though, are you nuts? I have a wonderful friend who made me 4 loaves of wheat bread with non-iodized salt. it's so yummy.
Jam- apricot or raspberry. it's become my new condiment of choice. it's great on the bread. Pretty good on the chicken (unless you're just plain tired of chicken), and makes the nasty crackers I have taste a little less nasty.
Organic PB- decent, when you're hungry enough. Pretty good on granny smith apple wedges.
Brite crawlers. Y'know, the sour gummy worms. This is my sweet of choice right now- because I CAN eat them. And I don't have to share with the kids because it's one of the only things I CAN have.
Cream of Wheat- no milk. not too bad. I usually cheat and put a tiny bit of milk and add a little water. I know, I know. but as long as it 'looks' like milk I'm fooled.
Last night I made a yummy mixture of fresh tomato and grilled chicken. It was suposed to have zuchinni in it, but my zuchinni was bad :o( Tomato and chicken, sauted with some garlic and a little pepper- YUM! a slice of wheat bread on the side. Almost cured my craving for the O.G. Except the wicked heart burn I got from that tomato. Yowza!
So I'm planning a celebration of the Olive garden on Wed. night. It's a splurge- but I deserve it. That is unless my Dr. crushes all my hopes and dreams by telling my to stick with the diet. Oh, it will be SO SAD. oh well, there's always next week I guess.
Tomorrow I become radioactive for 24 hours. i'm interested to see if it messed with the car radio at all. I'll let you know.
i'm getting bored with my food choices. I know there's more i CAN eat out there- there's just not a lot that i WANT to eat.
