I was put on a liquid/soft food diet for
over a year. So I got very creative.
I drank slim fast shakes. I cooked real
boneless chicken breast and rice with
cream of mushroom and cream of chicken
soup and then blended and pureed it while
adding plenty of chicken bouion (boiled)
and spices to taste. I also ate oatmeal
(flavored). If I wanted a hamburger or
meat I got those romain noodles that had
the beef flavor that I could slurp down
without chewing or whatever flavor I
wanted. For my chocolate fix--i would
put a piece of hersheys chocolate bar in
my mouth and let it melt. One bar of
chocolate would take at least 30 minutes
for me to eat that way. I ate yogart,
cottage cheese, puddings, (all low fat),
mashed potatos, a milk shake every once in
a while, soups that were like tomato,
split pea and bacon, veggie and beef, etc.
I drank lots of water to help flush out
the toxins that were building up in my
system from all the pain pills and other
medications that I was having to take for
the tmj. I ended up getting all 4 basic
food groups believe it or not. And I
ended up loosing weight! Which I was
elated about.
