Took an hour to get through a half cup of cottage cheese, but it went down nice and easy! So happy to be continuing to make progress toward a happier healthier me!

YAY!!!! Cottage Cheese is a great choice. When you are thru all of your steps try this. Cottage Cheese with a small amount of SF or low sugar Strawberry Jelly. It kind of taste like strawberry cheesecake. YUM YUM

Got permission to move on to phase II (puree and soft foods) a couple days early! Sunday I get to try cottage cheese and the like.

Congrats! I moved onto soft foods and have eaten a couple bites of scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, re fried beans and tuna salad over the last few days. It sounds like a lot but it's about 3-5 small bites then I'm full, then the next meal I try something else. So far no problems, just glad to chew something!

I agree! I missed chewing! At most I can eat about a half cup in an hour. Which is a little annoying when trying to get hydrated too, since we have to wait ten minutes before and half an hour after eating to drink. But overall, so happy to be advancing and moving along. Tried cottage cheese this morning, refried beans with some melted cheese and sour cream a couple hours later, and imitation crab as a snack. So far everything seems to be going well! Just wanted to make sure there were things I could try before going out in the world this week (don't want to get sick while in a class or at my placement).

Had strained cream of mushroom soup with fairlife mixed in and it was so good I almost cried (I miss food). Also had some vitamin water zero today and drank it down easily, glad to finally be reaching my hydration goals!

Day 5 post op and feeling pretty good! Able to sleep on my right side for a little while and able to go from laying to standing using a support pillow with no pain! Still looking forward to moving on to phase 2 in a week, so sick of just protein shakes and plain yogurt.
