I want to begin by telling all of you how much these posts mean to me. I read about you day and night applauding your progress and courage- thank you!

I have just now figured out HOW to post myself lol!

I was sleeved on July 11 th n doing great.

I was experimenting w Soups to purée and made a great one that you guys may like. Recipe below. But after reading nut value of the tofu with amount digested I wanted to up the Protein level so I added a couple of Lumps of crab meat to my 1/3 cup Soup .

Questions: am I too early for crab? Will I leak ? I tried chewing well( needed something to chew!)

Am I eating too much and stretching ? Last night I felt I pigged out on almost half cup cause it was so good!

Thanks for your input !

Recipe ( didn't really measure)

Sautéed bunch of leeks, onion, garlic with olive oil. Added bout three cups veggie broth . Bag of California style veggies( carrot, broccoli, cauliflower ) frozen. Simmered down soft .

Blended can of evaporated low fat milk with package of soft silken tofu. Set aside n blended soup to purée and then added creamy tofu mixture. N added soft different seasoning sea salt n pepper etc.

It is awesome but tastes too good to be low fat n feeling like I ate much n too early to digest soft crab.

Please help

I don't know about your doctor, but mine had me on soft foods at one week. It doesn't sound as though the crab is a problem, because that is considered a soft food. If you were uncomfortable, maybe it was the amount of soup you ate.

Thank you. Your probably right 1/2 cup is quite a bit. I have always been a fast eater. I was eating slower today n couldn't eat half of that. My doc stated only egg or two tablespoon of cottage cheese week three. I hate cottage cheese n very weary of protons drinks.
