Finishing liquid diet- Reintroducing food help!

[nellie456]

Hi. So Christmas is over and I'm on the last 3 days of my 3 week liquid diet.
My family have been so supportive over the Christmas break with not being able to eat.
Christmas Day was easy though as my consultant Said I could have a small Christmas dinner.
I wasn't given any chocolates that should have been given to me as Christmas presents as to make it easier for me.
I'll be getting these when I finish my liquid diet *EXCITED*
I've also been taking some of the chocolates off the tree and from the boxes (celebrations, quality street etc...)

So anyway. What I was wondering is if I will be allowed fudge and toffee or is it a must avoid food.
Thanks for any replies x

When you finish a liquid diet it's usually advised to start off with bland things (such as mashed potatoes and chicken - those two were definitely on the reintroduction list my dietician sent me), but I know how it feels because I finished my liquid diet two days before Christmas when I was on it!
The point is that you work your body up to accepting solid food again, but whether you are able to tolerate something is different for everyone. Were fudge and toffee generally ok for you before? If so then it shouldn't be a problem when you start eating again, as long as you start off slow and listen to what your body tells you.
Hope everything goes great and that the liquid diet helped!

Toffee becomes liquid if you suck it, so it must be kosher. :rof:
