tom I start mushies and I am nervous I have been on liquids for the past 15 days I don't even know how my sleeve will handle food. so far I have not had any problems I like protein shakes and water. but I can't live on that. what was the first thing you ate when starting food what would be the easiest on my stomach. I have not even tried to eat food thanks

keep it simple the first day- dont push yourself out of your comfort zone.

Try SF pudding with Protein powder or FF greek yogurt with splenda or crystal light for flavor. If that is too thick or heavy dilute with skim milk and gradually thicken it up with Protein Powder. Also try thickening up your Protein shakes with more pro powder and ice and yogurt.

If you want to progress beyond that- try cottage cheese or tofu. I personally LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the laughing cow soft cheese wedges for flavor- they are only 2g pro and 2g carbs 35 cal- so they arent food to live off of, but they do give you some variety flavor wise. If you excercise dont sweat the carbs.

hope that helps! This mushie stage is AWESOME after all those sweet protein drinks!

My first soft food was a deviled egg.

Nonfat cottage cheese, egg drop Soup, mashed sweet potato, hummus, re-fried Beans, tuna salad, chicken salad, and no sugar added applesauce are all good choices for me but everyone is different. You will just have to experiment with certain soft foods to find out what you can tolerate. Good luck!

I ate cream of wheat first...luke warm. It felt great! good luck!
