Broken Jaw :( Soft Diet next 6 weeks... Cutting?

[nodiggitydave]

Sadly on Friday night I got jumped by three men, and I'm now recovering from a broken jaw that I had to have surgery for... I don't remember it but luckily it was on CCTV so hopefully the police can sort it out
It was outside a cashpoint so at first I thought i'd got robbed, but nothing was taken so I can only assume it was personal or completely random.

The next 6 weeks I'll be on a soft food diet to help my jaw repair, only thing is this seriously messes up my bodybuilding diet as I cannot have meat.
I'm pretty limited to stuff like, cottage cheese, milk, rice pudding, jelly, ice cream, custard, soup, and of course whey shakes - you get the idea.

Since I've been bulking for.. (ages) I think this would be a good time to do my Cutting diet. I'm 6ft and 200lb, probably about 18-19% bodyfat.

Can anyone help me compose a diet - bearing in mind I'm limited with what I can eat?

is it wired shut? If it is then you will probably lose some weight. Also lifting gets a lot harder if it's wired cause you can't get enough air in from just your nose. GL to you after I recovered from mine I ate everything I possibly could and ended up packing on 20 lbs after losing 10 with some nice strength gains.

Not wired, just been placed together with a plate (internal plate), I'm able to talk but it's out of one side of my mouth (kinda like popeye lol) And the nerve that controls the feeling in my chin/cheek has been bruised, so I'm a bit numb. I can relate to the air intake though, I've got a cold too which is making things alot worse. I could eat soup for Britain but I think it's going to make me lose a lot of hard work. Hopefully some fat too

invest in some quality pro. powder... not whey.

Milk protein isolate, egg white powder, ect.

flavour them up, custom, ect... Protein Factory.

I don't reccomend 100% MPI though... i've done that before and it's chalky as hell.

I use 40% MPI 40% egg white and the rest is just some other stuff i like to throw in there..

Don't forget all the great things u can throw into the blender like egg whites, fruit and oats and peanut butter and little things for flavor like sugar free pudding and chocolate syrup, jelly etc etc I mean you're gonna come out of this experience with some great recipes if you get creative.

Also u van have cool whip free and sugar free jello for dessert like 20 million times a day and not get sick of it.

I remember back in the day myoplex used to come with a huge recipe book, I bet you can find some of those shake recipes online for inspiration.

Don't get too down on yourself about this, it might not be as bad as you think.

Hello mate. I presume you're in the UK? Where did that happen?

Go to myprotein.co.uk They sell loads of quality powders & are the cheapest I've found. Oats, whey, powdered egg whites, casien etc etc

I would NOT start cutting now. Cutting is when you need to eat meat and really tune in on your diet. You should stick to what you have been doing cal wise and cut after this passes.

Any word on the situation? Find out who the guys are or anything?

 

[nodiggitydave]

I've found out who the guy is but not really what happened.

Still no word from the Police, typical.

I got back into training properly the other day and the diet did effect it I think..

Having to drink lots more milk - and i'm thinking starting having a pre workout shake of dextrose

 

[nodiggitydave]

I'm back, bigger and stronger

I know who the guys are now, through being told, and erm, well sort of remembering lol.

Well pissed, camera shows me just getting whacked by arms, doesn't show any faces, so basically the police have said if it goes to court you'll need people to say you've heard the guys saying they did it, which for me is a total fob off, when the police even knew the guys from nicknames.

Personally I'd love to get juiced up and single handedly batter the shit out of them! Sadly street justice doesn't always win does it...

The experience has certainly made me stronger, my jaw is now OK, my lip is still numb and so is my gum (I could be looking at huge compo if it won in court.. )

Still lifting hard and glad to eat whatever I want now.
