how do you do it

I struggle with this more and more

the thought of eating while I am in pain just doesn't apeal anymore. I know I have to, (and I do), but I end up coughing agrivating my pain even more and find myself only able to eat half of what I have (and then I'm hungry!)

I can't win

I deal with this during my flare ups. I eat yogurt, jello and fresh fruits. I get soup sometimes...it’s harder for me to get soups because of all my food allergies/gluten sensitivity.
I try to tell myself I have to eat enough to take my vitamins, immune supplements and medications.

I hate when the pain is severe and I want to soak however am not able to because the pain is also in my hands and shoulders. Which I would not be able to get out of my bathtub because of the pain.

Keeping you in my thoughts

thanks for this.

yogourts.. well, I guess I don't hate them (I won't eat them with bits), but some flavour ones are nice- vanilla and strawberry are good

my only issue with eating yogourts is that it agrivates my incontinence and for the rest of the day (or at least until it's out my system), I am basically changing.

but, I suppose if it means I eat.. guess I'm just getting old
