Day Two

Submitted by shell74 on Wed, 05/18/2011 - 14:03.

Woke up at 6 am, feel OK did the ususal, packed lunches for Josh and Axe, 2 feeds for school for Callum, oh and 700ml bottle of feed for me!

 

Not a massive fan of breakfast during the week so no real hardship to go to work feeling a little hungry.  Felt quite energetic first thing and cleared a good bit of work before 10 am.  Now, an Army tradition at 10 am is for senior ranks to go to the Mess for coffee, and usually toast or bacon sarnies!!  A few eybrows raised when i declined this morning, lots of explaining followed by smellling of Elemental and turning up of noses, damn food snobs!

 

So whilst everyone was enjoying a hot bacon sandwich (i'm salavating), i had my first 200ml or so, tasted stronger than last night.  Lots of rubbed tummies when they all came back commenting on how tasty the bacon was etc... expect more all week.  Nothing extraordinary happened gor the rest of the day, managed the full 700ml.

 

Two things i noticed today;

the elemental fills you really quickly, but it also wears off just as quick, i finished my feed at approximately 2 30pm and by 4pm was feeling hungry again.

 

Secondly, as i have felt it a litlle more today, i noticed i made a lot of typos in  e-mails and am not as sharp.  As i blog on through the week i will leave my blogs unaltered to see how much it affects me.  Off now for dinner, wonder what that could be???

Ste and Callums feed

Well done STeve for surving day 2!!

I find it really interesting that you felt full then hungry quickly because our youngest used to get enough calories from his Neocate but would always wake at night hungry.  If it doesn't fill you up for long then this would explain why!

Look forward to seeing how you feel by Friday!! If i can't bear the Necoate then i may have to add a little nesquik too, if this is allowed!!

Good luck!

Hi The dietitcians often suggest that you add flavouring to the neocate and EO28 if you have to drink it. So I think you will be ok to add it to the neocate.

Good luck. xx
