I am in the middle of a bad cold and feel aweful. Very nauseated. I'm having a hard time eating anything. Any suggestions on what is good to eat during a cold.

I am 10 weeks post-op.

Thanks,
Vicki

I don't know if this will help but when i was 2 weeks out and had to eat puree food, homemade Chicken rice was one of the only things I could tolerate. I would put it in the majic bullet and then heat it. I have not sufffered a cold yet but my family have clods now so I know it's coming and I was worried about how I would deal with it.

Even for normies, nothing tastes good during a cold :(

just making sure you don't get dehydrated, and get in your vitamins is the most important.

If you feel like eating then stuff like chicken soup is still the best way to go! Yes, it is a slider food but you aren't making a habit out of it, it's just temporary.
God Bless!

I've had a cold the last couple of days also. Last night I had a hot cup of Tomato soup with a few oyster crackers. For once, tomato soup tasted really good. I think just because it was something hot.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
