starting chemo thurs! very afraid

everythingisrosie Try oat ‘milk’. You can get it from Holland and Barrett or larger Tesco, It’s called Oatly. I go for the one in the green pack. Make sure you shake it before pouring. Oats are good for lowering cholesterol I think too. Because I’m not always in the mood to cook I have lots of things in the fridge I can whip up a tasty cold buffet with. Reduced fat hummous, cooked beetroot, sundried tomatoes, watercress, artichoke hearts, olives. Also tinned wild salmon (good source of omega 3 and rich in calcium). Snack on nuts, seeds, dried fruit. Make lots of fresh juices. Drink lots of water and herbal teas. Also lots of fresh fruit and veggies. Costco do some very tasty wild salmon burgers that make a convenient and healthy meal. It can be tough at first because modern eating habits (and supermarkets) aren’t set up to encourage healthy eating but once you work out some good things you can enjoy eating it gets easier.
