Comfort foods - what gets/got you through tx

I've been drawing up a shopping list for comfort foods before I start tx. I was wondering what things you kept on hand to get you though it.

Here's my current (and ongoing) list as of today:

Ginger ale
Mrs. Grass chicken soup
Campbell’s tomato soup
Saltines (lightly salted)
Grilled cheese
Gelato
Ice cream: (HD’s Dulce de Leche, B/J’s Cherry Garcia, fresh peach)
Homemade chicken soup (finely chopped stuff)
Homemade vegetable soup (broth or pureed)
Ginger snaps
Tea (peppermint, ginger)
Cottage cheese
Plain yogurt/fruit for smoothies/frozen
Lime juice popsicles

I got to the anything I could grab stage too, would lay for 2 hrs. hungry and not get up to make anything so broke down and bought junk food. My sis about fell over when she saw me with junk food all over my room! My sons came by a lot and fed me :)

Ice cream was a biggie tho! Since tx I've eaten it about 3 times! Also lived (literally nutrician wise) on smoothies and put all the good things I could in it-yep, cranberries, and even started putting instant breakfast in them. Made with yogurt mostly. Thats something you can usually get down at your sickest.

Good luck, whatever you eat just make sure you DO eat! Days I ate little I'd feel worse.

  Oatmeal!   It's really good with cinnamon. It will always go down, even when you're not hungry.                          Good Luck,                          -Libby

"If Mr Softy made guns  we would have bullet dipensing machines at every street corner,and properly be all dead by now "

Nah - they would never work.  You would have to unplug them and plug them in again.  Then you get a message "access denied"  - very helpful.  

You could always call and talk to support at $55 per hour.  When you finally get the bullets you will probably kill yourself out of frustration.
