Confused? :)

Well... I've got tonsillitus... And it's a PITMFA to eat most anything solid. Sometimes I feel better than others and can muscle down food, but sometimes the pain is too much to bare. I still have an appetite, but I just can't eat anything that's crunchy/hard and what not. Today I had a banana and some Instant Breakfast, lunch I had soup and a fruit smoothie... Hopefully the pain won't be too bad in a couple hours when I eat dinner :action:

Is there anything in particular I can drink, besides my whey protein, that will give me the nutrients my body needs to run? Hopefully I'll be feeling well in a matter of a day or two and I won't have to worry about this...
 
for breakfast, lunch, or diinner porridge is the way to go man you can eat it at any time and its like a complete meal and takes like 5 minutes to make but yeah the blender would also be a good idea :p
 
I had my jaw wired shut for 5 months once. Stick it all in a blender, it works just fine, and you'd be surprised that it can taste good too.

I got to eat both Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner that way, and they were surprisingly good.

Make a regular meal. Blend it with some water. Heat it up again and drink.

It might look a bit odd, but it tastes just fine.
 
Well after the first day or two it wasn't bad, I'm feeling a helluva lot better now. My left side gland is still somewhat swollen but not enough to really get in the way of my day. I ate a fair amount of Cream of Wheat these past few days for breakfast, and drank a number of protein shakes :)

Last time I had tonsillitus, it hurt so bad that I couldn't eat or drink squat. It took all I had to take the liquid antibiotics and pain meds they gave me. It hurt to talk, swallow, breath, spit, anything! I hope I don't get it again for a long time.
