crackerbread with philly extra light,

cottage cheese on it's own!

pate with crackers

Fish in sauce... the boil in the bag portions are good if you hate cooking/faffing!

risotto...

slow cooked chicken casserole- loads of sauce really helps things slide down

Mashed potatoes with gravy (sauce again!)

Quorn mince made into chilli con carne/ or shepherds pie again with extra gravy

Veg soup homemade (al la weight watchers recipe!) with added minced chicken/quorn....

Keep what you eat 'wet' with lots of sauces and gravy and you'll find it'll stay down...

Don't forget.... eat slowly, chew thoroughly and if in doubt leave a couple of minutes between bites to make sure it's going to stay down!

You might want to try yoghurts, lots of people can get them down although I struggle unless its greek yoghurt!

Hope this helps a bit... the thought of a slimfast as you're only option would fill me with depression!!

I have become a soup eater! Even the cream soups. I have found that Progresso soups are really good.

I also found EAS vanilla protein powder ( a big bag that has lasted me 3 months) was only 28.00 at costco. I mix 1 cup skim or 1% milk, 2 1/2 to 3 scoops of protein powder, some crystal light fruit punch flavor, or other flavor, 3-4 ice cubes and blend. It really tastes good.

Hope this helps.

We can get the Protein powder, but what's Crystal lite? We don't have a costco and I've never heard of progresso soup!!

( sorry, we're from the UK!)

hi everyone

thanks for that information over the weekend things hve slackened off a bit l have just have had a couple of crackerbreads cheese and 30 mins later l hada weightwatchers rice pud and are full tothe brim

thanks

oh..darn!!

well, do you have a "nutrition store"? A shop that sells Vitamins and such? They should have some kind of Protein whey powder. Vanilla is the best cause you can flavor it any flavor.

Crystal Light is a soft drink mix sweetened with SPLENDA...it comes in different fruit flavors...do you all have KOOLAID? its kind of the same just with no sugar..

Progresso soup is just a brand of canned soup at the grocery store that tastes homemade.

sorry I did not know you were in the UK...I am sure you all have similiar things, just different brands.
