oh gosh i've been hungry today!

after weeks of next to no nutrition, it seems my body is screaming for sustenance. tim mentioned chicken at cell last night, so i got gutsy and took out some to thaw when i got home last night...

so, today i ate, with increasing momentum:

breakfast: i think a banana. hot fruit juice. (morning's a bit foggy for me, lol)

lunch: i think it was an ensure.... and hot fruit juice (may be my new 'coffee'!)

snack1: instant rice with garlic and melted peanut butter (yumm...). hot fruit juice.

dinner: two roast chicken drumsticks in my own marinate/cooking sauce, and broccoli/asparagus/(regular) rice soup. prolly some juice.

dinner2: grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich. prolly some juice.

dessert: ensure.

snack2: noodles. fruit juice.

snack3: leftover soup with the meat from 3 drumsticks (which was tomorrow's lunch!)

... and now i finally feel like i've eaten, lol!

ok, i am NOT - i repeat NOT - going to be eating like this every day... are you kidding? i don't want to gain the weight i've so unhealthily lost while i've been sick, lol. i will definitely be replacing the white starchy crap i've been living off of with the multigrain etc varieties that i usually go for.... but not too fast. don't want to shock my system.... so i hope to be off the starchy stuff in about a week....

...today is the first day i had *regular* rice instead of instant, so that's an upward trend... when i run out of that, i'll replace it with brown rice. same with the noodles... you can use whole wheat/grain spaghettini in place of noodles in many dishes... etc, etc, etc.

one thing i think i *will* keep is bread (whole wheat or multigrain of course)... you can't exactly grill a peanut butter and banana sandwich with a tortilla wrap.... well i guess you could, but you know what i mean!!!!... besides, i love baking bread, it would give me an excuse to do that, fortified and nutrified with onions or milk or herbs etc as i please.... and no preservatives. yum!

so YAY, it seems i can eat again without much (i hope!) gastric distress to follow (we shall see how the night fares...) so far today, i've had hardly any cramping. ...every day, better and better! thank You, Lord, for antibiotics! lol

btw, i'm gonna see if i can squeak ball class into my finances... if so, i'll start next week. i hope. i plan to. i will, darn it! so far as i can tell. ha....

now, must go to bed. g'nite, all.

THIS BLOG IS IN NEED OF AN OVERHAUL. there are posts from years back i would not be able to post in good conscience now. i plan to overhaul the blog, and either delete or add a disclaimer to those posts. but that is gonna take time....

The Radical Summons: "Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp and bear the reproach He endured. For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come." Hebrews 13:13.

"The Spirit never loosens where the Word binds; the Spirit never justifies where the Word condemns; the Spirit never approves where the Word disapproves; the Spirit never blesses where the Word curses." —Thomas Brooks

‎"God receives none but those who are forsaken, restores health to none but those who are sick, gives sight to none but the blind, and life to none but the dead. He does not give saintliness to any but sinners, nor wisdom to any but fools. In short: He has mercy on none but the wretched and gives grace to none but those who are in disgrace. Therefore no arrogant saint, or just or wise man can be material for God, neither can he do the work of God, but he remains confined within his own work and makes of himself a fictitious, ostensible, false, and deceitful saint, that is, a hypocrite." --Martin Luther (W.A. 1.183ff)

i will not let You go: "Jacob's sense of his total debility and utter defeat is now the secret of his power with his friendly Vanquisher. God can overthrow all the prowess of the self-reliant, but He cannot resist the earnest entreaty of the helpless." --Albert Barnes

i will not let You go: "Jacob's determination did not flow from his strength, it flowed from his weakness." --Charles Leiter
