Whinge whinge, moan moan in Hello.

It’s hard, the restrictive eating thing. I tracked my food yesterday and found I’d consumed just over 800 calories. I’ve lost 4lb this week. While I could do with losing a few (about 50lb to be no longer classed as overweight) I do wonder if I can continue at this rate. I know I’m ok with food as long as it’s not too fatty, but any fruit or veg with a membrane or a skin has my stomach creeping up my oesophagus. So no legumes, oranges. Same for anything slightly acidic. I don’t want apples or berries. Bananas I find I’m ok with, I had one for breakfast yesterday. Lunch was the weight watchers risotto again (it has a handful of peas in it, which hurts a bit, but it’s the most tasty meal I can handle right now!) Nothing too “claggy”, I’ve come to realise that the pain I feel when I get mashed potato or white bread stuck in my throat (I’ve always had problems swallowing them) is identical to the pain I feel when I eat something I shouldn’t, so I’m beginning to wonder if they’re related somehow. Tea last night was a tin of seafood chowder. I tried to up my calorie intake with veg juice and coconut water. I also had a couple of Wethers Originals, which seem to be ok as long as a suck them as opposed to crunch. Same for malted milk biscuits (I had two.)
Cold water hurts, so I’ve been drinking it hot or tepid.
I appreciate this is a boring entry, but I thought I’d write it for my own future reference. Heads up: if you find you get pains in your stomach after eating certain foods/a lot! I urge you to go to your doctor’s to get it checked out. As I rule I don’t go to the doctors very often (my doctor actually looked surprised that I hadn’t been in 6 years, not since I bruised the bone in my arm! why would I go unless I needed to?) Anyway, I thought that these pains warranted a trip, I’m no hypochondriac by any stretch of the imagination!
