Let Him Eat Bread!!!!

So, this past Monday I had a oral surgery. Nothing horrible just a tooth pulled out. It was one in the back of my mouth so it took about 8 stitches to close it up. (If it was one of my front teeth that would've been a whole different posting). Well, I get the stitches out in a week but in the meantime my Periodontist(not sure spelled right?) tells me that I can't eat solid food for the entire week. I asked if that included Deep Dish Pizza, Chicken Wings and other healthy food I like to eat. He not only informed that those items weren't allowed but gave me a written list of what I could eat.

Yogurt
Mashed Potatoes
Soup
Pudding
Apple Sauce
V-8
Protein Drinks

The only item missing on the list is rice and then I would have diet of a dog that has a bad case of the runs.

So, I'm on day 5 and it's been pretty unpleasant.Hungry and bad headaches. The one thing I realize and should have known that this would be painful is that I need bread or a breadlike item at least once a day.( I usually have a bagel,sandwich,roll or bun once a day everyday) It must be the yeast,wheat or something because I'm getting carbs from the other stuff I'm eating. The last time I went without bread was about 8 years ago when the Aktins Diet was the rage. I went 2 days with no bread and other carbs and was such an irritable S.O.B. that my assistant at work said "If you don't go the SUBWAY right now and get a sub, I'm quitting!"


So I'm weathering these daylong headaches from no bread and just have to make it 3 more days. Fantasizing about watching my Bears play the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football with a Lou Malnati's X-Large Deep Dish Sausage Pizza in front of me.

By the way, the next person that ask me "Are you hungry?" will get this reply back.

"No, it's really not that bad because I distract myself by thinking about how big of morons people are that ask me "Are you hungry"
