Start of LID Diet today...fun!! 9/20/2010

I will do my best to get my blog all caught up today so I'm able to give you a true picture of my feelings through the next couple weeks.  I have a feeling this will be harder than recovering from surgery!!

I have to start my LID diet today.  I know I can have fresh veggies, fruits, the insides a potato, egg whites, my coffee WITH NO CREAMER!!!!, and just a little fresh meat.  I'm going to limit the meat intake as much as I can.  I'm going to make an actual menu today and go to the grocery.  I do have a few things on hand so I can be good this morning, but if I dont plan out every meal-even a snack-then I'll be more likely to want to cheat.  When it comes to food, I was not given alot of will power, but I'm not given a choice in this.  The statisics show people that have RAI after the surgical ablation of their thyroid almost never have reoccurance of their cancer.  I have to do this diet, and I have to be successful.  So mission for today.... find some recipes!

My voice is still basically non-existant.  In the morning I "sound like me" but its a volume of about 2-3.  I need to start looking for a  job but I cant even get on the phone much less interview with anyone!  I'm still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up... do I go the healthcare route which mean crazy hours that will not make my family happy... or do I go through the agony of finding another low paying admin route which means being unfullfilled.  OR do I jump into school and see where that takes me.... which means, I'd still have to choose to work.  Life is so complicated today!
