Traveling

[Sharrinslife 2]

One of my major concerns post surgery is that I travel a great deal for my current job. Although I have arranged to have have 1 month at home right after surgery i am concerned about being ready to be on the road again . I am also very concerned about how to navigate eating out . Any suggestions would be very welcomed. Thanks

If you're going to have a month off work, you'll be fine. There are a lot of things you can order eating out. For the most part, if I don't have someone to share a meal with, I order off the appetizer menu. Fish and Shrimp are always easy for me to eat. Soups are good choices too,

but they don't always stay with me as long. I've always been able to eat deli meat pretty easily too, so if I order a sandwich, I just take out the fillings and leave the bread.< /p>

Do you use Protein shakes and bars to augment meals? Mostly worries I will not be eating anything other then mushies and trying to travel.

I drink a Protein drink every day for Breakfast. I do use Protein Bars as Snacks.

There are a lot of things you can have on the mushie stage. Fish is a mushie, so is chili, tuna salad, basically anything that is

not completely solid, such as steak.
