Diet for a new tongue piercing?

[Ceebs]

I'm dying to get my tongue pierced, but what I can (or can't) eat during the time while it heals is holding me back. My diet right now consists of tofu, cottage cheese, protein powders, broccoli, tomatoes, bell peppers, and occasionally fibrous berries and protein bars.

Have any of you who follow a bodybuilding-type diet had your tongue done, and if so, did you stick to it while the piercing healed? What kinds of food could you absolutely not eat? Do you see any problems with the foods I listed above?

Thanks in advance, and karma to anyone who helps.

whatevers liquid and cold will help. like protien shakes, protien puddings. get some of that orange flavored fiber powder and mix it with protien powder. have some sugar free ice cream shakes. stuff like that. or some metrex or some meal replacements with low carbs......

or you can try my specially blended protien mix that will shure to bring and even bigger smile to that lovely face you have, studys show that it is one of the highest qualities of protiens ever discoverd by female athletes

My advice to you in this situation, is get your tongue pierced at a reputable place.... the people who did mine, even though it was a well-known tattoo/piercing place, didn't do it very well and she actually pierced right through the central nerve.

Normally it's just meant to be like a pinch, and feel uncomfortable but not too painful. Mine was some of the worst pain in my life, and I bled a LOT.

So I had no chance of eating solid food for quite a few days. I would stick to soup, shakes and blend everything up into liquid. You might be okay with ice-cream products as well but I wasn't. Everything sucked. Then I went and chipped my tooth on the bastard last year.... so I took it out. Stupid idea in the first place.

I would suggest buying two boxes of MRP, maybe Met-RX (which is best tasting) or Myoplex. You can drink 5-6 packets a day, after you blend them w/ crused ice. This will alow for maximum healing time, while you will lean out and feel good.
