    You mentioned you wanted cheese. I put a little bit of shredded cheese in my grits. I know cheese isn't on the mushy stage, but melted in the hot grits, it has been very doable as well as enjoyable. I strongly suggest you do your protein shakes or drinks everyday as I feel the protein is what curbs my hunger. I learned from a friend that is 7 months post-op to do the majority of my protein first thing. I switch between a double shake (2cups of skim milk and 2 scoops of protein powder) and my flavored Isopure drinks. Either way I have 40 grams of protein before I've even headed out the door. Also drink your water. I hate plain water, so use the crystal lite powders. Peach Tea is my favorite and makes drinking 3-4 bottles of water a day enjoyable.

    Using oatmeal or cream of wheat as an example, I am able to eat the single serving amount as directed on the package. I thought this would be too much but wasn't confident in halving it before cooking so decided I would halve it after. I use a small spoon so that I eat slower, but the amount doesn't make me feel overly full.
