Entering the Mushy Zone

[DFWRPh 0]

I am at day 13 but decided to graduate from liquids to mushies a day ahead of schedule.

I started the morning with half a soft boiled egg, mushed with a fork. By noon, my Constipation problem was resolved.

In the afternoon I still had 3 oz of myocel Protein Shake.

At tea time I had 4 oz of tea (with milk) and a small piece of Rusk, which I dipped in the tea before taking small bites.

This evening I had a small piece of salmon (less than palm sized) mixed with a tablespoon of home made oil-free curry sauce and about a tablespoon of rice. Mushed it thoroughly with a fork before chewing really well. I ate about 2/3 of the meal (about 14 small fork fulls) before I felt full.

Based on what I was able to eat before feeling full, it feels like the band is loosening up a bit. However, I was not hungry at any time today and felt satiated the whole day. Any comments on my food quantities/choices from the more experienced?
