Nigel, my husband's Imrt therapy ended July 8th. While he is 63 and not in as good physical shape as you are, he is doing well and eating well[with only 4 teeth left]. We do lots of homemade soups with beans, fresh veggies, chicken stock, mashed potatoes, fish, risottos,steamed brocalli, asparagus tips, spinach, turnip greens,sweet potaotes etc. and lots of butter and gravy. Best luck to you. Amy
