Sorry to hear you arent doing so well right now. I agree with Ray about having your thyroid checked. Your body is still healing from the devastation of radiation. At one point I was getting around 7000 calories per day for several weeks without gaining weight. Your body needs all those calories to heal. I dont remember if I gave you my choc. peanut butter milkshake recipie before. Of course, try to get the most nutritious things down, including lots of ensure/boost/carnation vhc. You probably would feel so much better if you upped your calories considerably for a few days.
Its easy and has alot of calories, probably at least 2500. All ingredients are approximate.
3 cups chocolate ice cream
2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup choc. syrup
1/2 cup carnation instant breakfast
