OK, so, as some of you know, I just had surgery to clean out a bunch of endometriosis. My appendix was removed at the same time. I was on painkillers for awhile and was mildly C, but the day after I went off, I was back to D.

I really have no appetite anyway so I've just been mainly eating fat-free saltines. I really need to eat better stuff because my body is starting to show signs of mainly living on bread/crackers the last four months -- nails, hair, skin are all horrible!!!

So, what can I eat that's ultra-ultra-safe that actually has nutrients? I'm also eating potatoes when I have enough energy to peel them, but I don't think they've got much other than potassium.

I am usually too tired to do much cooking, so I need easy options. The vegetable puree thing sounds like a good idea, but since I hate the vast majority of vegetables, they would have to be disguised in something else, like maybe soup or something.

I'm trying to do prenatal vitamins, but I've never had much luck with vitamins in the past. I'll try to stick it out anyway. I want to try getting pregnant in March/April, but I need to be healthy enough first.

Suggestions please?
