Hi I am leaving for France tomorrow and am still on mushies for another week. Anyone have any ideas for me?

Also, do you think they will let me take liquid prescription meds on plane or do I have to check it?

Congratulations on your band, and how exciting to be going to France. I personally would get a doctors note for your meds, they are so funny at the airports these days........wow, it is hard when u have just been banded getting used to different mushies and learning what you can and can't eat. Hopefully you won't have an appetite at the moment so won't be tempted by those yummy French delicacies............I don't know much about particular foods in France but am flight attendant for work and always have to look for mushies in certain countries.........here are some things I eat........guacamole, hoummus and baba gounush, soups, cottage cheese, maybe you could stomach some of those yummy soft cheeses up there, put on a cracker but don't eat the cracker..........I carry miso soups with me to keep up my protein, maybe you should take some protein powder with you in your suitcase just in case...........

Don;t know if this helps but let us know how you get on, also you should be able to easily have a fine French wine....

Cheers Fi!!!

You are just about to go on solid foods. My doctor has us on "soft foods" the last three weeks. That includes things like cottage cheese and fish. I would absolutely steer clear of any breads, pastas, rice. But if there are fish dishes you can get, you can probably have those. Especially with some kind of sauce to help soften it. Don't touch any fruit with a skin (like grapes) or any pulpy fruits...that could be bad. Really, just judge the consistency of stuff and be sensible. You are so close to being on solids that if you see something you want I imagine you could have it if you are careful. To be quite honest, I followed my doctor's orders to the LETTER about the 30 days before solids. When I went in to get my fill and I told them I had just started solid foods on day 31 they were SHOCKED. They said MOST people don't follow it to the letter.
