NinaX 6 Posted November 25, 2010 Hi When you go from liquids to soft food you will most likely feel a slight pain in your stomach, not major pain but you have to remember that your new stomach hasn't been working out for a while and has gotten a bit lazy. It's just as a muscle after working out or exercising, it can be a bit sore! :-) Take it slow, chew a lot before you swallow and you should be fine. You will absolutely not stop loosing weight, but it should slow down a bit. This is normal och the way it should be for your body to catch up. Loosing it iat the same rate as you do on full liquids isn't healthy in the long run, so don't worry about it. Make sure you only put yourself on the scales once a week to avoid feeling of panic if it hasn't moved for a day or two. :-) I came to a stall week 3, but for the first time in my life I felt completely calm about it, I am so convinced I will succeed this time and if I work it out I have still lost an average of 2,8 kg per week. My first soft foods was a really yummy and soft scrambled egg. Yoghurts and semolina porridge was other things I had. smoothies made from yoghurt, berries and proteinpowder is what I had and still has for Breakfast. Good luck and best wishes!
