4 weeks and so many questions

[okalani 0]

Hi I was wondering what suggestions does everyone have for being 4 weeks out now? What exactly is a soft diet? Also has anyone attempted to take a sip of soda(sprite) I am so craving the carbonation I know it is bad for me but all I want is a sip.... any opinions and suggestions would be greatly appreciated :crying:

Hello, a soft diet is pretty much anything mashed, pureed or placed in a sauce making it mushy and easy to chew. Things like mashed potatoes, refried Beans, apple sauce, scrambled eggs, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, yogurts, tuna, etc. Look under our recipes forum, you should find some ideas there.

As for carbonation, I really don't recommend it, especially not as early out as you are. It will most likely really upset your stomach creating a very uncomfortable experience for you. I am seven months out and cannot tolerate carbonated beverages, but I don't have any desire to drink them either.
