I agree with confused, not being able to keep liquids down is not good. You run the risk of being dehydrated. I can do liquids and really soft food like tuna or crab salad, other things usually come right back up. I had a slight un-fill a few weeks ago because it hurt to drink and no food, absolutely none would stay down. I want to lose the weight, but not at any cost

hope you feel better

Thanks everyone for your condolences and prayers! You guys are the best. I love to cook, so I'll keep the recipes coming. I still enjoy it eventhough I can only eat about 1/2 cup of it.

Cioppino is italian fish stew (made with chicken broth, clam juice,stewed tomatoes, white wine, italian seasoning, garlic, onion, and any kind of seafood).

You can use anything you like yesterday- b-south beach living tide me over l-cookies and cream muscle milk d-salmon burger wrapped in lettuce with a yogurt, lemon dill sauce, tomato and grilled onions (could only eat a few bites), I am really tight.
