It's amazing how we all heal differently. I too had surgery Nov. 7th but I can't handle a scrambled egg. I can only handle soft cheese, cream of wheat and broth. And only about two tablespoons. I am supposed to progress to soft foods next week and there is no way. I am at least a few weeks from that. I can only eat things that are completely puréed to thin to med consistency. When're I have to chew something if it doesn't completely disappear before I swallow I have to spit it out. Ugh going slower than I thought!
