Great to hear from you Nate. Ensure and Boost would be great as well as milkshakes (add some protein powder to 'em if you can.) I remember Teresa eating all kinds of soups, grits, mashed potatoes with gravy, but mostly the liquids for about 2-3 weeks. Pudding, yogurt, ice cream were also on the menu. She gratduated to mac and cheese (mashed up really well).

I think Christine has posted the easy to eat recipes a few times... try a search on Recipes.

I know it's hard to make yourself eat, and when the taste goes it's even less appealing but very very necessary. The difficulty will pass so both you and Michelle just keep plugging along and getting those calories.
