Yeah, I miss cookies too.
Um, I mostly used canned or frozen veggies, so they're precooked. Carrots, peas, green beans, whatever I have on hand. I can't eat raw veggies. The only thing I can handle is lettuce, and even then I always try to eat SF with it. If I don't have a potato or rice I'll be sure to take chia seeds with it. Chia seeds have helped me tremendously. I wrote a whole post about them a while ago. I have some with every meal. I usually mix them into a glass of water and let them sit a while to soften, then drink them down. They have so many benefits, they keep you feeling full, they help keep you regular, they help keep blood sugar stable.
Another thing that's helped me a lot is keifer, which I'm able to handle fine despite being lactose intolerant. The kind I buy is goat milk keifer from a health food store, which doesn't have a bunch of unnecessary ingredients like the Trader Joes brand I used to buy. Keifer is definitely worth looking into. I've stopped taking pill probiotics and just drink a small glass of keifer every morning.
