p's got back yesterday.

OPERATION DIET DAMAGE CONTROL. 40.5kg weigh in for ol' girl. Here we go again. Wish I could say I'm confident but not much room for error at that weight. I'm running out of options.

In brighter news I fixed the subwoofer with shoe glue lol. If it works it works!

Also found me ol' great grandpas cobblers last: checkit!

Missing a foot but they don't make them like they used to.

    that's not good

    seriously, if possible, I would be sitting with her and making sure she eats just like if she were 3 years old , every meal

    or a nurse

    That's what I ended up having to do with my mum. The phone would ring, or the doorbell, or the dog would look at her or something, and she'd immediately drop what she was doing and want to attend to it. I had to be a bit of a bouncer with people. She was the sort of person who used to have dinner at the same time every day too, you'd think people would have some damn brains.

    Try something called Sustagen. I've used it in the past when I needed to put on weight due to a degree of malnourishment.

    Have seen them used as doorstops, at which they are very effective. Being stable in multiple aspects.

    Does she like or tolerate sweet flavours? Is there any ability to chew (and able to swallow soft solids)? Because if yes to one or both the options expand exponentially

    Sugar is very helpful for calories and solids might be more variety
