mutterings

I cooked meals for family and made everyone lunch today. It was grand although I was a bit tired. The test though was going to a friends BBQ this evening with family and grandparents. We were two hours late but we do have a smashing awning up and also I took a nap. I was fine from the sausages to the chicken to the bread to the dessert. Politely said no thanks to all of them as I'm on weight watchers and here's my protein drink and grand.

Now if that was Ireland sure folks be shoving food down my gob or saying are you sure ? Here though they pass on and it's ok which is gratefully appreciated. I'm a food pusher myself normally so now I learn also in this journey not to. I had a lovely time at the Bbq because at end of day it's about the people there and socializing and chatting with friends. Found out a friend is just expecting so thrilled with that and keeping them in my prayers. It's first BBQ ever been to where I haven't eaten anything at all and been wonderful.

Down the road I will be eating of course but for now in liquid stage is hello protein and water and some decaf tea. Thankfully I can also do mothers milk tea so help keep my supply up for nursing. F2 is such a wee dote and so is F1. Got blessed with both of them and my wonderful hubby. I know going to be ups and downs in this journey but thrilled my folks here celebrating my change by supporting and helping out and husband supporting me the same. Now to take some painkillers and I gratefully accepted hubbies help to do a feed. He's right in that I need to let go sometimes and accept I can't do it all.
