This is my first day back it feels kinda weird having to measure out food and liquids I'm in the soft stage and its so difficult to find foods I can eat I have to remember to bring lunch tommorow. So far I've had 1 scramble egg for Breakfast and 2oz mash potato with 1oz of very soft turkey breast. as of liquids I've done only 25oz I'm stuffed don't know how I can keep my Protein and liquids count for the day i'm 21 days post-op and I need advice because it's so hard to do.

Another question have any of you guys had very dry mouth in the mornings and feel lightheaded before having your Vitamins is this normal??

thanx guys I have tons of question but I don't want to overwhelmed with all of them but I do love this forum and want to keep in touch as much as I can

Hi, If you've got a smart phone Myfitnesspal.com is a great way to track your protein and liquids for the day when you're on the run. It has such a great library of food and beverage counts it makes tracking very easy.

Soups where my friend for lunches on the go during the soft food stage, so was stir fried or curried tofu, loved cottage cheese with soft pears or peaches in a small container with a dash of Hymalian salt. I've attached my docs list of soft food stage...maybe it will start some ideas for you. Good luck being back to work.

• Tofu
  Low fat cottage cheese
  Cereal
  Oatmeal
  Precooked pureed rice
  Low fat Yogurt
  Yogurt mixed with fruit very well blended
  Cream soups ( denser cream soups like cream of potato )
  Eggs
  Boiled pureed fruit ( example pear, apple )
  Watermelon, papaya or melon in small pieces
  Boiled pureed vegetables
  Beans …..Mayorcoa
  Mashed potatoes
  

Than you I do have a smarthphone I will try it out. and thanx for the list I will try this also.
