About two weeks out, I was having smoothies made with soy milk, whey protein, a little bit of frozen fruit, and the supplements, yogurt, slightly heartier soups, juice, water, crackers. Eating about every two hours. About one month out, I was trying soft foods in additon to the above: grits, pasta, heartier soups, smoothies, yogurt, juices, cottage cheese. Eating about every two hours. I'm about seven weeks out, and I'm eating just about anything I want. I really like salads with lots of raw veggies, a small amount of meat, soups, baked potatoes, fruit, cottage cheese, some pasta. Bread and pasta and rice give me the hardest time, but I limit myself to just a few bites. Hope this helps. Good luck! Blair 8/9/00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
