faith 4 Posted July 20, 2013 I feel good!! How about you? They have me doing every stage for two weeks each so next week I start the purée food! I'm excited just to chew lol. Do you feel your self getting hungry often? I'm getting hungry more often but all I really want to do is chug a water bottle down so bad. Also what did you eat at the second stage? The doctor said anything that comes out of a blender basically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northfilly 10 Posted July 23, 2013 Sorry it's taking me so long to respond I got a new phone . I was bad I didn't puree anything I just chewed it up a really super good. I did a lot of Peanut Butter and I would eat toast but I would chew it really good. Now I'm on week five and I just eat ... chew chew chew... I kinda had a hard time with refried Beans or any kind of beans. But now I'm good. I'm still testing different foods to make sure I can tolerate them. I hope this was helpful I feel like a terrible example. I was 156 lbs this morning!!! Wooohooo.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can I ask you what you started your weight with. Also thanks for the advice. I had my first egg this morning with spinach and cheese. Ate two bites chewed and chewed and that was it for me. So my left shoulder starts to hurt every time I eat. I called a specialist on it and they said its normal. It's my body sign your full. Strange right??? Going to have some yogurt for lunch and some Soup for dinner. These days I'm so busy and tired I don't have the time or energy To eat and haven't had a Protein shake in so many days too. Once again a big congrats!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northfilly 10 Posted July 23, 2013 My starting weight was 172. eggs are a good thing to start with , you get your Protein a little bit of fat and they're soft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
