Monday when I was at the doctor he ask me to start keeping a diary of my food intact and everything else since I am having so much trouble keeping food down. I decided that I would post it here and every day I will come back to this post and edit with the days activities and food. I am sharing this here because of the puking and the stricture part because if you ever think you have one you will relate to this part of my journey. I can tell you that I am so frustrated right now I want to cry. Today I picked my daughter up from school and had to take her to therapy I stopped several times to throw up on the way. When we got to the doctor's office I went and threw up again and have been thrown up a couple times since I have been home. Please click the READ MORE link to see my daily journal.

Just to note: Office visit. Start keeping diary. Had a long day away from home didn't eat until 7pm. Had alittle bit of chicken breast. As usual it stuck so I spent the next
several hours sick until finally at 2am I was able to throw it up. Everytime I tried to drink water during the hours after I ate it would come right back up. Reminder to
mention to Dr. Kehdy: I checked the label on the Muenster cheese I had been eating and it had 0 carbs, 6g fat, 5g protein per slice(22g) with 1 serving of the 98% fatfree
turkey this gives me 14g of protein.

Breakfast: Tried to eat a tablespoon of cottage cheese and a tbs of applesauce, it didn't agree with me had maybe a teaspoon of each. About 30 mins. later tried to eat a
half a banana. It stayed down but I was uncomfortable the rest of the day.
Lunch: I was at my urologist's office and Jewish hospital getting records during that time so I didn't get to eat.
Dinner: (5pm)Made a 4 oz. piece of fish, ate maybe 3 oz. of it. Made me sick again. After about an hour and a half of eating I drank some water, it came back up. Then I
tried a popsicle an hour or so after that and it came up. Wait another hour took a sip of water, came up again. Waited 2 hrs. took another sip and came up again. By
1am I was throwing it all up...this is why I can't sleep:(

Happy birthday to me! Sore throat from all this throwing up it feels swollen all the way down. Did the smart thing this morning, tried a couple bites of yogurt took my
daughter to school and amazingly enough it stayed down so I ate alittle more when I got back. Also made me a piece of bacon...but the jury is still out on this one.
Keeping fingers crossed it stays down.
Walked today, did 30 min. areobic exercise, and strength toning.
Lunch - 2 oz. Ground chicken breast. Some cucumber slices. Yeah! Another meal stayed down.
Dinner - 2 small pieces of grilled chikhen size of a quarter, 1 tbsp beans.
snack - salad with lettuce, cucumbers, bacon bits, and lowfat dressing

Breakfast - 1/2 scrambled egg, 1 piece of bacon
Snack - cucumber slices
Lunch - 3 small peices of grilled chicken about the size of a quarter, 1 tbsp beans.
Dinner - Nothing. By the time dinner rolled around I was throwing up lunch. I had no problems with this meal yesterday but today it did not agree with me. It took me
until 1am to finally, finally be able to drink 1 16 oz. bottle of crystal lite because everytime I drank anything I threw it back up.

Breakfast - 1/4 cup of oatmeal, turkey sausage patty
Lunch - Tried a 2 small bites of baked pork but it felt like it might make me sick so I ate a teaspoon of green beans and a teaspoon of cabbage. I may still try something
with more protein but I am trying to give my stomach a bit to recover...Just on that little bit I feel so sick. I am physically tired from all this being sick and throwing up.
Not unhappy about my decision....will never be unhappy because I am in such a better place than I was just frustrated. On a good note I did weigh today and am at
255.4 and I'm even on my period so go figure:)
7:38pm - I have been throwing up since 2:30 and all I ate was that little bit I had at lunch. Before I was miserable after dinner until I finally threw up several hours later
which meant I didn't get sleep at night. Now I am throwing up at lunch, forget dinner, forget drinking anything, all I can do is be sick. This is the 2nd day in a row that I
went all day with less than 8 ozs. of liquid in me and that was thrown up! I don't want to have to wait until 2 am again until I can finally drink some liquid and be able to
go to bed. I even took a phenagren suppository. This wasn't your normal throw up where your food just comes right back up no taste or the same taste it had when it
went down this was a horrible, gut wrenching foul tasting puke. I am just so frustrated and tired, each day it gets harder and harder to get me up because of lack of
sleep, each day my energy level drops more and my body aches. Sorry for the rant.
