Hey guys, I'm on free fluids/kinda mushy stage...and I've been having like a broth or creamy Soup with bits of chicken or lamb in it...they are really small bits and I get really full REALLY quick... its working for me because I get to chew a bit, even though its really boiled ...

what do you reckon?

this stage is KILLING me - I can't speak to the nut - coz she's holidaying in the US....

I feel fine...and really full..

too much too quickly??? thoughts guys PLEASE!

Just my thoughts... you say you are on Liquid/mushy stage, for me they were two distinct stages, weeks apart. I moved to pureed foods two weeks after starting full liquids and mushy foods two weeks after that. My NUT told me, "if you have to chew, it' s not for you" during pureed. She stressed that my stomach needs to heal and I need to let it by not progressing until told to. You will get as many different answers and thoughts on this as there are doctors, try and do what your NUT instructed until you can reach her. You don't want to progress too quickly, you can hold off. It is in your best interest to do what you were instructed.

Good luck and congratulations on your surgery and loss so far!!
