thanks
Carrie at almost a week out I would eat:

B- yogurt
S- jello and or popsicles
L- cream soup and applesauce
S- jello
D- cream soup again
S - chicken in a mug soup - no noodles

Basically that was it for the first 2 weeks for me. I tried protein drinks, but could not do them at this point. I can now. If you can disguise the protein powder into things, even the better.

S= snack.....Nohr doesn't like snacks, but at this early out, I did them to keep up my stength. I drank about 8-16oz a day of propel or herbal tea at this point...I had a hard time getting in any more. Hot cocoa made with splenda and milk powder.

Hope this helps.

At the 2-3 week mark, I added in scrambled eggs, puree anything, soup that was blended - few chunks, oatmeal, cereal, cheese, a little fish.

Key thing is to eat very small, keep up the fluids, take your vitamins and rest.
