Looking forward to the next phase..

I am so sick of Protein Shakes, pudding, Jello and yogurt... I can't stand all these sweet tastes. I just want something savory... I know I can have chicken broth but I am so looking forward to something else!!! Who can relate and what are the first things you ate on the next phase?

I feel your pain! Just thinking about mushy foods make me queasy!

All I wanted was cheese. I begged the dietitian to let me have a bit a day or two early. Now I'm tired of eating cheese

After surgery most foods seemed to lose their taste. Eventually I found out that mixing foods together seemed to add flavor back into my meals. So I generally relied on softer foods such as chilis and Soups.

I can totally relate. I am only 5 days out and everything is so sweet. Only thing I can have this week that is not sweet is broth and just the smell of it makes me sick. All the things that get added next week, yougart, pudding, ect are sweet too. I never liked cream of wheat, but I bought some today to try next week since it is not sweet (that I know of) Trying to make it to week 3 when I can add somethings that are savory/salty. Pre-surgery I liked sweets as much as the next person, but would always prefer food to sweets so week and half will be hard, but 2 weeks will be over before we know it.

Try the ricotta bake....it was heavenly after having a bunch of sweet stuff.

Have you tried cream Soups? They are working for me in between my shakes. Just make sure to strain.

Do you happen to have a recipe for the ricotta bake?

I'm downing fat free broth like there is no tomorrow!

I have never been a sweet person so I'm all for the beef broth, chicken broth and vegetable broth.

Thank you very much for sharing. That whole article will prove to be valuable when I get to the mushy food stage.
