Airihappy Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 I imagine I'm going have to be on a liquid or soft food diet for some time, but I was hoping a better variety of food, rather than just pumpkin soup or mashed potatoes. Are there any complete options available in Seoul? Sorta like soylent? Quote

0 Rey Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) After line, I bought cerelac, I made sweet potatoes boiled and mashed them, I brought protein shakes from the states, I bought bibigo (a brand) soft food, didn't like there rice porridge with abalone much. drunk more milk, and bought smoothies from coffee shops. I bought baby food (buddy fruits), I also bought hunger suppressant jellies I found in korea called dr moon diet jelly since liquids dont really fill me up. I mashed up rice by overcooking it in water and cut meat into very tiny pieces where I could just swallow the mashed up rice with meat sauce. I also ate a lot of eggs, they are soft enough Edited October 1, 2019 by Rey 1 Quote
0 Venus Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 I ate lots of noodles, soup and drank pumpkin juice. After the surgery, I lost my appetite and didn’t feel like eating at all. So my diet was pretty simple. 1 Quote
0 Airihappy Posted November 4, 2019 Author Posted November 4, 2019 I heard pumpkin doesn't taste that great. I've started looking at some Wouldn't alternatives which I hear might be good post surgery. Quote
0 krusjp0 Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 I highly recommend jook (in english might call it congee). There are jook shops all around seoul, almost as common as a sandwich shop in america. Soft and nutritious... great for after bone surgery Quote
0 krusjp0 Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Also, when I asked Claire from Namu about pumpkin juice, she just rolled her eyes and gave a quick laugh. I think the really experienced consultants in korea know the pumpkin juice thing is an urban myth... probably with very minimal difference Quote
0 cactus Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 If you want something ready-made, brands like Labnosh have porridge/congee in a pack, kinda like Capri-sun but not lol. Good to have on hand for a quick snack too! Quote
0 Sarah B Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 I think noodle will be good for you Quote
