I have severe tonsillitis from strep throat and haven't eaten solid food in 4 days. I've only had chocolate milk. What can I get that will cover my nutritional needs? The only thing I'm capable of eating is something that will slide down the throat.

I've lost 5 pounds so far. I'm on antibiotics and a steroid, but I seriously need to eat something or I'm going to end up in the hospital. Help me /ck/

If you can't afford a doctor's advice, a chemist will recommend a range of nutritional beverages. They're usually used to fatten up old people with no appetite. Stuff like Sustagen.

yogurt
or alternatively home made snake juice(potassium/magnesium/sodium salts in water) if you really just need to survive

Protein powder with whole milk, add some peanut butter if you want more calories.

I can afford a doctor's advice, but I literally do not have time to go back. It's finals week.

And all he said was "oh, you might have trouble swallowing solids, so, I don't know, maybe drink chocolate milk?"?

girlfriend that's water weight you haven't lost shit

that being said, try frozen smoothies if you have a blender or food processor. You can throw all kinds of fun nutritional shit in there and the coldness will also help to numb the pain

What you need is some delicious soup. Go to some japanese restaurant and get some clear soup or if you can make it at home. I guarantee you will feel so much better.

Blended up raw beef liver, idiot. Mixed with carrot juice would be best. Or just chicken broth if you’re a pussy.

Miso soup and some bone broth, protein shakes, smoothies

sounds like you're going to end up in the hospital regardless to get your tonsils out.

It sucks but if you drink you can go a long time without eating. I didn't eat anything for two weeks when I had a throat issue (granted, I was already in the hospital though)

They didn't say jack shit. It was a registered nurse at an urgent care. They were very busy. I was triaged for nearly two hours.

I ended up getting some miso, yogurt, ensure and canned potato soup that I blended up well. That potato soup hit the spot. The ensure mixed with protein powder tasted meh but it has what I need. I feel better already. Thanks for the list /ck/, I think I'm going to make it.

I had a period of about 6 months where I couldn't eat solids, and could only do about half a cup at a time of liquids... whey protein, weight-gain shake powder, and multivitamins may have saved my life.

I got something for you

In all seriousness time spent without food is not going to hurt you. I went water-only also for medical complications and it took a month before my body really started to stop working.

There are literally a billion options for you
All sorts of widely available premade protein drinks, many sugarfree
Have a bunch of those and supplement with some V8 or smoothies

My semen.

On a more serious note, try a protein shake, or, alternatively, let a bunch of men ejaculate a semen concentrate down your throat. Oh, it will slide down your throat.
