I'm 2 weeks out from surgery today and am really looking forward to the mushy food stage so that I can have some real substanance. Can I eat some lentils or something else mushy @ an Indian restaurant? What do you think? Any advice on anything with some flavor that I can eat? I'm a spice addict and these two weeks on bland liquids have killed me!

_{I dont see why you couldnt, as long as its mushy and you don't over-do it. I would make sure that whatever you choose isnt too fattening...as a habit I look up every restaurant online and see if they have nutritional values so I can know before I get there what I will get ~ I usually stick to an appetizer.}

I couldnt live without saag paneer but maybe you shouldnt eat the paneer...give it to me I'm a cheese addict! Indian food always make me feel better!
