First Day Of Soft Foods, I Don't Like It.

I was just getting used to the soups and protien drinks and now....

I don't know if I am mentally ready to move on. When my nurse said I could add mashed potatos and other foods to my meals, I didn't hear anything after mashed potatos. My mind immediately saw a bag of potatos, a block of cream cheese, a stick of butter and a can of PET milk. Oh the horror!!!

I know myself, adding the white carbs will sabatoge anything I have done so far. I am a carb junkie.

 

I went to the store and purchase veggies to steam, turkey meatballs, maranara sauce, quinoa and other items that I intended on adding slowly to my diet.

 

Hehe, I made dinner for my family tonight...little do they know that they had turkey meatballs, whole wheat pasta and low sugar marinara sauce. And they ALL liked it. I had steamed veggies and 2 meatballs with a TB of sauce. It was weird eating it, I felt like I should have put it in the magic blender first. I may do that tomorrow with the meatballs and marinara and add a spoon of ricotta cheese.

I couldn't wait for mashed potatoes. I just bouught the ones from the deli, already made. Just needed to heat them up. I savored every bite. Especially having been on liquids for 4 wks. I think u can also have scrambled eggs, egg salad, tuns salad, cottage cheese, etc, can't u? I could on the soft diet.

I've never heard of making mashed potatoes with cream cheese. Sounds good, actually

Enjoy ur food. Glad to hear ur progressing

I can have the eggs, tuna etc...

I speak a good game, but if I am going to do this the right way, I have learned that I have to be honest with myself. I overindulge on even the healthy food and will make myself sick and hurt over it...and I would keep going. Not because I am still hungry, but because I love the flavor.

Oh, btw, the combo of the cream cheese, stick of "real" butter and the PET milk is to die for.

I think I will try to make some for dinner one night using all fat free stuff and see if my family tastes the difference.

On one of my many diets I tried the morningstar products, they are pretty good. I forgot all about them. I may need to go back to the store. lol.
