Trying to get a bit fitter for my OP ,any fittness you can do will help your recovery. I wish everyone who's in the same situation we found ourselves all the best for treatment operation and recovery. I must admit its a scary time for us all
I ate foods I didn’t usually eat! High calorie and high protein…the main issue was portion size at first so I calculated a cupful and gradually increased it. I used a small plate and didn’t eat and drink at the same time.
Dinner.half a baked potato with cheese, chicken casserole with mashed potato
Breakfast. porridge made with coconut milk and banana with a spoonful of yoghurt,
Lunch . avocado with a cracker or toast…although bread was avoided at first.
It is a bit of trial and error especially at first!

Life is what happens when you are making other plans!
Peanut butter by the spoon full, he has that about 4x a day. Mix protein powder in with Greek yogurt, soup anything that you can mix it with, He left hospital with the fortisips shakes, the dietitian prescribed them again for a month. X
breakfast: porridge, breakfast smoothies with yoghurt and oats, or soft eggs like half boiled or scrambled. After the puréed diet stage possibly crepes with filling savoury or sweet. Nutella for sweet as it’s calorific as heck or savoury like pesto with cheese to beef it up a bit.
lunch or dinner: risotto or Mac and cheese (over cooked pasta) rice based dishes like curries with coconut milk possibly some fish in it, noodles with a peanut butter and soy sauce. Maybe soft steamed dumplings after the puréed diet.
snacks: smashed avo, mashed sweet potato with feta
