Is fish a good food to have during the mushy phase?..... it seems like it would be.... anybody know?

I am able to eat some fish with no problem at all. I am fine with Red Snapper but choke on salmon.

I wouldn't call fish mushy. That is considered a solid.

I was allowed to eat tuna salad during my mushy phase and regular fish during my "soft solid" phase.

I just checked my plan and on post-op week 3, I can have soft foods. It lists tuna salad and soft fishes such as filet, tillapia and flounder and states to avoid salmon, shrimp, swordfish, etc. I hope that helps. I could live on fish and can't wait to get to the soft foods stage.

I love fish but only got it on the soft food stage (just to bet on the safe side...) but I guess it is OK as long as you chew really very well in your mouth before swallowing it.

Fish was on my Dr.'s Mushie stage. I consider it a mushie.

I believe that if we chew, and chew, and chew it really WELL , in the end no matter what we eat will be turned into something «soft» and mushy stuff, therefore it's OK.

It has been 15 months I have been banded, but on every meal I still have to focus on this slow chewing process...
