coloradogrl 13 Posted April 17, 2013 I haven't tried any fish yet, chicken has been good, oh I did eat 1 fish finger with some ketchup, and it was amazing, lol. Before I would have had 12 fish fingers. Today I had some of the roast beef off an Arby's sandwich, and that was really nice too. Just chewed very well. It's very thin moist and easy to eat.

melissak2013 1 Posted April 17, 2013 I had my surgery on April 10th. Doing well so far. Second stage foods not that exciting but can hold out til next week and stage 3! Who knew that the thought of puréed foods could be so exciting. 1 LanaMae reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My shake has 35 G Protein, so I still drink that for Breakfast and assume the small portions of protein for lunch and dinner are enough. Not the best answer, but that's what I do.
