As I mentioned in a previous post, I am very recently diagnosed (a week ago) and have been coming to terms with it emotionally. As a longtime member of AA, I think I have a bit of a head start on things like acceptance, turning it over, and living one day at a time. It brings not only a sense of peace, but also a feeling of empowerment.
Positive feelings might help me survive longer, as well as being helpful to others. I want to keep those good mood chemicals flowing.
Speaking of good things, I've developed this monstrous craving for ice cream. Not only does it taste good, it's easy to eat when one's swallower isn't functioning so well. Anyone else out there with similar cravings? I think it's helping me mitigate the weight loss. I'm also craving eggs and I usually never eat eggs.
Hey - does anyone have any good smoothie recipes? I have one. Frozen mixed berries from Costco. Trader Joe's French vanilla yogurt (or any "real" yogurt). And either pomegranate juice or papaya juice. And if you want some additional protein, throw in some soft Tofu (but it does taste kind of yucky). Throw it all in a blender. Lots of berries keeps it thick.
Berries are supposed to have tons of antioxidants.
