I'm about 3 weeks out and eating well. Not blending much...find that if I chew "alot" it works great and gets it at about the same place as if I blended...plus a lot easier. also with all the chewing I'm feeling full a lot faster!!

I've also found that I've had no problem eating other types of foods if i chew the heck out of it and turn it into mush in my mouth. It takes a lot but has allowed me to return to eating more normal faster and because I'm eating so slow I feel full with little food. Always told to do that before surgery, but more focused on it now. I'm 2 weeks out
