Hi Joni, I'm so excited that this is happening for you. I'm sorry you are having such bad luck with finances. Here's my lists: List of liquids that helped me get through the liquid stage: Water Chrystal Light SF Jello SF Pudding Low Sugar Yogurt Apple Juice with no sugar added SF Popsicles Protein Shakes SF Carnation Instant Breakfast mixed with milk and 1 tbs of peanut butter Cream of Mushroom Soup, blended Cream of Chicken Soup, blended Bean and Bacon Soup, blended My Soft (Pureed Food) Diet consisted of: All of the above mentioned liquids Gerber Chicken and Gravy baby food - trust me, it smells just like chicken and gravy and if you can get over the fact that it's babyfood, it's actually good! Gerber Turkey and Gravy baby food Gerber Beef Roast and Gravy baby food Soft scrambled eggs no yolk, shredded cheese added String cheese Quaker "Nutrition for Women" oatmeal Ricotta cheese mixed with SF jelly or jam tuna or chicken with boiled egg whites sent through the food processor Anything I cooked for dinner that would survive a trip through the food processor chili (homemade or Wendy's) sent through the food processor
