Kay_G_B 10 Posted March 8, 2022 You should try sugar free pudding or Light & Fit Greek Yogurt. You can make the pudding using Protein Shakes instead of milk to give you the added Protein as well. I was never a fan of Greek Yogurt, but the Light & Fit brand has so many different flavors to choose from that you can't even taste it. I struggled with the Puree and Soft Solids Phase of the diet so yogurt was my saving grace. I had my surgery on Jan. 27th, so you are not far behind me. Keep up the good work and remember that it's not a sprint, it's a marathon.Kay_G_B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kay_G_B 10 Posted March 12, 2022 Thanks so much for the tips , can i ask why you struggled with the soft food phase ?It just was uncomfortable and hurt when I would try and eat. I got different advice/opinions about the situation as well. Suggesting that maybe my body now couldn't handle dairy, maybe I was eating foods with too much acidity, maybe I was eating too fast, etc. It would feel like heartburn or like a lot of pressure in my head when I would try to eat something new or different. I'm not sure how else to explain it. So I've become rather fond of yogurts, jellos, puddings, Soups, applesauce, and of course sugar free popsicles.Kay_G_B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
