I was upgraded to purees for dinner tonight - the last big milestone for being discharged. I haven't eaten actual food in nearly 5 days. I was psyched. I don't have a pic because my phone was charging but it was pork puree, mashed potatoes, pea puree and apple sauce. They serve you regular size portions though and it's up to you already to decide how much to have. Tough stuff.
Thing is.. I'm not actually hungry. What? I know! I did have some though to see how I tolerated but also because of something they call head hunger. I'm a fat girl, there is a plate of warm food in front of me at dinner time. Duh! Eat it. Only, wait....
I wouldn't have touched the catfood looking pork puree a week ago but it's my new life and it wasn't bad. Potatoes were good. Had probably 4 bites. Meals are supposed to last 20 mins and no drinking during meal (not until 30 mins after). It's a lot to learn but it's going to be an adventure!
