j_cheney: (Tired)
[personal profile] j_cheney
Did you know that when you go to the store and you have no appetite, you don't buy any impulse food? Believe me, nothing looked tasty.

Something at Hobby's Hoagies did smell good, and my tummy rumbled, but wasn't enticing enough to make me go in.

I went ahead and bought some Ensure. Not tasty, but nutritious. Now I'm exhausted. Time to nap.

Sympathies.

I lived on Ensure for a week when I had my wisdom teeth out. Bad enough the dentist referred me to an oral surgeon, and *he* called, (himself) the evening after removing them to see how I was doing. At the time, Ensure was the only "health shake" that wasn't milk-based, so... They seem to make fewer flavors, because I had mint chocolate. creamsicle, double chocolate...

Then came the Glorious Day of Eating Applesauce.

Hope you feel better soon!

If you aren't by Friday, probably should go to the doc...

I actually feel tired, but OK. Just nothing sounds good. I have no appetite yet. It'll hit me eventually.

And I like vanilla. ;o)

I don't think I tried the vanilla...

I always try to go shopping after a meal.

And Ensure isn't tasty, but it can be filling and is better in many cases than plain water.

Actually, I don't find it objectionable ;o)

I'd still rather have a "real" milkshake.

And I thought you were already better. Take care and feel better.

I feel OK, I just have no desire to eat (so I'm tired). I figure I've gotten about 400 calories for each of the last few days. I made myself eat dinner tonight....just for the calories ;o)

I've never tried Ensure, but Carnation Instant Breakfast isn't bad.
Hope you feel better!

One has not to be lactose intolerant for that...

I have IB in the pantry, but decided to go get the Ensure for just that reason....

Oof! Hope you feel better in the New Year.

Thanks. I don't feel too bad. Fever gone, no real nausea. I just still don't want to eat....or drink....not even my beloved Diet Coke. It's very strange.

Napping the new year in is a time-honored tradition.

I've gone to bed early on more than one New Year's Eve...

Though I see your post was put up next year, and so was this one, I guess... (11:19pm EST, 12/31/08, really.)
