Diet For DD

Posted , 2 users are following.

I'm struggling to find anything to eat that doesn't set my pain off

and as I'm possibly facing surgery I need to build my strength up.

Could anyone give me some meal ideas please ?

I can't tolerate soups, eggs , meat, vegetables.

I'm always hungry and feel weak from lack of nourishment.

    Hi Linda

    I'm guessing if you are currently having an attack and are on antibiotics, you are on a liquid only diet with no fibre, until things calm down.  I have meal replacement drinks as they contain all the additional vitamins and minerals you need.  If you can't take dairy, I think you can make them up with things like unsweetened soya, almond or rice milk.  I also had plain yogurt, and steamed white fish.  The other things I could take, like chicken broth or soup, grilled chicken I guess are on the no-no list for you.  Hope you start to feel better soon.
