Answers:
UGH UGH UGH! I had a fractured jaw a couple years ago, it sucks!
I drank Ensure, and lots of it, about 4 per day!. I always got the Healthy Weight one, it has more calories!.
Also, I would blend very very ripe bananas, ice cream (vanilla) and chocolate Carnation Instant Breakfast and a tablespoon of peanut butter for a yummy shake
Try mixing instant pudding up, but use 2!.5 cups of water instead of the recomended 2 cups!.
Cream Soups were my buddies, you can sip them, again mix with extra liquid
You will never want another soup or shake again after you are healed up! I gag at the sight of a milkshake today! Feel Better!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should talk to your doctor!.

Not only is it not good that you have dropped a lot of weight in a week but it sounds like you are not getting a balanced diet which can make it more difficult to heal properly!.

There are many liquisupplementsts out there!. You should be looking at things like Ensure, Boost, or eveslim-fastst ( you would have to take more then the 2 cans per day)!. I am not sure about boost but I know that Ensure has a weight gain formula!.
Be carefulul about how much sugar you are getting and how well you are able to clean your teeth! People who have their jaws wired shut should contact there dentists ASAP!

Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
