I was burned out on creamed Soups for sure and the one lil cheat I had when I nibbled a cookie Saturday showed me that sugar tastes like crap now... so lesson learned. So today I had....2oz of cottage cheese which was quite tasty and I wanted to eat more but nothing else was fitting in my new tummy. Then I had a scrambled egg with cheese on it, was right at 2oz there too and even yummier than the cottage cheese. And then I had spiced up tuna and mayo. The clouds parted and the angels sang! My tummy and mouth are happier than they have been in soooooo long. Heh, who knew tuna with mayo was so good. Tuna with mayo was the very first "real" food I had after the liquid/puree stage. I got one morsel into my mouth and started sobbing. My husband thought I was in pain but I just couldn't wrap my head around how magical it was to taste something flavorful that I could chew. 3 paulec74, ProudGrammy and FlyAwayFree reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ricotta bake is soooooo good! I have done egg salad and refried Beans with cheddar and sour cream and chili (bean not meat) pureed and it's just made a world of difference in how I feel emotionally even.Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I put a small dollop of sour cream in them and it helped to thin them enough that they weren't hard to get down for me. But I seem to be doing super well with things physically now so I hope you are able to have the same luck soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
