I loved (and still love) campbells beefy mushroom...minus the small chunks of beef. Added Isopure unflavored protein powder, tossed it in a blender and was good to go! Cream of potato to...cream of all most anything really. Campbells has a good selection of 98% fat free

Soft solids and how much is too much.

At first I was getting worried about that too. I read a lot where people get full off a few bites but that just doesn't happen with me and like you i feel no discomfort at all. Amounts do vary from person to person so I think (hope) we're probably stopping before we even get to that point. -
I had a drain and my surgery was done in the US. Spent 3 days in the hospital because i was having trouble keeping liquids down. I was in pain but it wasnt due to the drain site. I could definetly feel the drain in me but it wasn't a pain it was more bothersome. My pain came from the incision my surgeon worked through. I did use the morphine pump but mainly before I'd go walking(which i did every few hours).

YAY!!! Congrats to you!! I was sleeved on the 21st of August. Down 22 lbs!! Still not bold enough to take a full body pic just yet but, you look great!! -
So I've heard that your taste buds change and things you liked before you might not like anymore. I still like everything. Haven't came across anything yet that tastes different. I feel like I'm able to stomach things that I probably shouldn't right now (of course its in smaller amounts) I knew I had an iron stomach before but man I really was hoping that would've changed. should I be worried?

Sleeved on 8/21. Last night was my first night home. Spent the entire night nauseous. Still trying to figure out what suits me. Cold water is a definite no no. Comes right back up. Going to try and walk a little bit more. Maybe relieve some of this gassiness. Noticing its easier to stay up right when I lay down it gets all bad. Just wondering how everyone else is doing -

All except one of them. I think its called dexilant or something but the doctor said I wouldnt start taking that one until the 30th after the 1 week follow up. How's your pain level? -
