    What to eat without peg

    Thank you both so much for your replies. I will discuss this with my dad and see if we can try some out. She was eating soft boiled eggs until a month ago and now only on liquids. Then when drinking less than half actually gets in so my mom has lost a lot more weight. Thank you.
