I am three weeks out of RT and just starting eating after to many weeks 5 I think of having an NG tube. The tube was horried but saved my life.
I have lost 13kgs but feel better for it and feel happy with my weight at 79/80kgs which has been consistant for 2 weeks.
I have started by getting protein in first to aid healing but with a juicer I have been able to eat melon juice, carrot juice, weetabix, scambled eggs, loads of complan and build up drinks. I can also eat pasta and have blended mash and sweet pots as well. I have heard of egg custard, and eating the egg off egg custards and the cheese element to cheesecake.
I have also eaten other stuff with the aid of drinking water.
I hope this helps.
