Looks delicious !!!

Enjoy!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but fish is not a mushy. It's a soft food, depending on how it's prepared. The only way it could be a mushy is if you put it through a blender.

Mushies are just that- mushy. Think baby food consistency.

Looks great but fish wasn't on my mushy list. I do eat a lot of fish now tho and love it.

Although I did eat tuna... But only because I put it in a blender with sugar and fat free dressing...Yum,

Your not I'm following my weekly paper from my doctor and soft foods to them are mushy foods. I can have fish, tuna, chicken salad, eggs etc. so I guess I should say soft foods instead of mushy. But thanks but I am on the right food right now. :)

My doctor also goes directly from liquids for 14 days, then soft foods for 7 days and then on day 21, real food!! No mushy phase i guess. Omg, i have never been so excited to eat cottage cheese, oatmeal, and egg salad in my entire life..lol! Ive had it with liquids and drinking my meals.

Crazy, how all surgeons are different. I had fish also on my diet list menu in mushy stages, I just didn't want to touch it. However, I did blend tuna from the can. LOLOL

oh, and like you I didn't have a 'mushy' stage it was just considered a 'soft' stage..isnt that wild.. I think, surgeons all around bariatric should unite...

I really wish they would. It would make our lives so much easier!! I wish they'd have a set post op diet standard for all Lap Band patients!

I agree cuz I was so upset on pre op when I was on liquids and my friend who had surgery didn't have to do no pre op

Yeah that's another thing that should be standardized. I didn't have a pre-op diet either, but my post op diet was brutal. I was liquids for the first 4 weeks after surgery. I thought I was going to starve to death for sure lol.

Just think its funny that I thought I was going to dye!!!!! I kept telling my husband I was going to dye for sure!! He would laugh at me ... Lol

Thankfully, none of us did die! Common terminology would help!

Lol...im so glad i wasnt the only one who thought they would die. I literally cried every single day, sometimes multiple times a day because i seriously thought i wasnt going to make it. Im still in my liquid stage but Monday i start soft foods. I cant wait!!

My doc had me do mushy/ soft in the same phase too.
