Right in front of my face

So I have to say that I am 7 days post op and feeling awesome. I don't even feel as if I had surgery 7 days ago. That is positive right??? Well the downside is that today I feel as if I relapsed on my diet. I'm supposed to be going to puree's in about two days and really excited to eat (somewhat) real food again. The only thing is that i have been letting myself down with the food I'm eating. Today my dad decided that he wanted Chinese. Usually on a Friday my mom and I eat Chinese because I'm craving it. Since the surgery we've drastically minimized eating out and what we eat. My mom has been such a great help and my dad too but my mom was right there with me eating soup even though she didn't need to. My dad wanting Chinese put all these foods in front of me and it made me kinda sad to see it because I couldn't eat any of it. My dad talks a lot of shit saying how he can't control himself when it comes to eating and does nothing about it. I know he wasn't the one who had surgery , but was this a little messed up to be talking about food constantly when I was around? To top it all off I had 3 crab rangoon. My stomach paid for it , but I was like damn this is messed up I ate this like it was no ones business yet a week ago I was laying down in the hospital having my stomach removed. I had some (no sugar added) ice cream as well which is on my post op diet, but still feel guilty because of the crab rangoon. Believe it or not I was not one to fawn over food. I loved food, but it didn't control my life. It was just a nice friend I could turn to. I'm very happy I have this restriction because honestly I would have been continuing the cycle of food distortion if I didn't. All in All I'm not really upset about tonight, just having a feeling of guilt because I took a huge risk eating something I knew I wasn't supposed to. I'm not blaming my dad for wanting to eat take out because it is my responsibility. I just feel there should have been some more consideration.
