Pollyanna12 74 Posted May 23, 2012 Yahoo! Good for you! Hopefully you won't experience any discomfort and will continue having good experiences with food & drink. Overall, I think the hardest part for me was being hungry after I started the mushie foods. Good luck, we will be looking for further updates... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lilbelly 31 Posted May 24, 2012 I tolerated the cream of wheat without any problem! I thought i would be scared to start eating, but all went fine. I guess my dr. thought I was doing so well he let me go on stage111 diet. Believe me I have never been more excited then to be able to eat something solid!

BOB052212 22 Posted May 25, 2012 I cheated and had cream of wheat for dinner. I tolerated it well, but was very full. I am a Band over bypass patient and its good to know that this early on a serving of cream of wheat can make me extremely full, best part is I have not had a fill yet!
