Bye Bye All Liquid, Hello Soft Food....

[fccm04 39]

I am super excited! Tomorrow is 2weeks for me and I can have soft foods! I am so over Protein Shakes, seriously they make me gag! So what were some of your soft food favorites? fruit? Can I have watermelon...it's soft?

I had a lot of deli lunch meat - ham, chicken, turkey. Cheeses. Yogurt. eggs if you like them (I don't but lots of people do well with scrambled or hardboiled eggs). Chicken/tuna salad. More robust Soups - vegetable Soup, chicken noodle soups. A lot of programs ban Pasta and white bread (not whole grain which is too robust for your tummy), but at this stage my NUT allowed it. A lot of people have a hard time with pasta and bread though.

Edited to add - I was allowed watermelon at this stage. Make sure you pick all the seeds out. Fruits w/o their skin - so a peeled apple, peeled mango. fruit cups packed in Water or juice but not Syrup. Veggies should be a bit overcooked. So if you like broccoli it's gotta be mushy rather than firm.
