What's your “safe meal” when eating feels impossible with cancer?

Hi everyone 💛 How are you feeling today?

Cancer treatments like chemo or radiation can really affect your appetite, taste, and digestion, and on some days, even the idea of food can feel overwhelming.

💬 So let’s talk about it:

• Do you have any comfort foods or easy-to-eat meals you turn to when nothing else sounds good?
• What textures or temperatures work best for you (soups, smoothies, cold meals, etc.)?
• Have you received any helpful advice from your care team or a dietitian?
• If you’ve found a tip or recipe that’s helped you, would you be open to sharing it with others here?

Eating well during and after treatment can be a real challenge, but we’re all learning from each other. 💬

Take care,
