I didn't throw anything in the blender or "puree" anything. At that stage I ate things like yogurt, oatmeal, cream of wheat, cream Soups, apple sauce.....

The whole blender thing i'm not into either, I like the idea of oatmeal and cream soups. Did you make everything watered down?

I added milk to the oatmeal and cream of wheat type stuff to make it runny. The soups and other stuff I just took very tiny bites and ate very slow to make sure I was not going to have trouble with anything.

Thanks a bunch!! Cream of Wheat sounds delish!!! :confused: I talked to a friend who just had surgery in December and she said she threw stuff in the blender and watered it down a bit, I might try both, just nervous to do clumpy things... Again, thank you!!!

I had cottage cheese, oatmeal, and a blended re-fried Beans, taco meat, sour cream, and salsa, and let me tell you it was HEAVEN!!!!!!!!! You will get there, and it will seem like forever, but when you do you will be sooooooo happy that you waited!! Keep on truckin'!

I had some left over lasagna that my mom had cooked while she was helping me recover on surgery day. about 5 days post op, I blended it with some Tomato Soup for something different. I was good, but it just didn't hit the spot like a real bite would.

one of my fav meals during mushies was ff refried Beans w/ melted lf cheese and enchillada sauce. delicious! and I ate a lot of mashed potatoes.
