I'm 3 weeks post op tomorrow! No more liquids, awesome! But man, am I already over this phase!!! Maybe I need some ideas? Here's what I've been eating:

Apple sauce

Greek Yogurt

sugar free Jello

Protein shakes

Fruit smoothies (protein added)

Hummus

Bell Pepper Hummus

Artichoke Hummus

Garlic Hummus

Tuna fish

Trader Joe's organic Soups (Tomato, Tomato Basil, Squash)

What else can I eat? My menu is driving me nuts already. It might look like a good variety, but I feel like i'm eating the same 3 items over and over againl, I need more options! HELP!

Sorry for the whining. I'm done now.

If you are on soft, only assuming, I also did chicken salad, deli meats, Chinese restaurant soups, I did those little round cheeses that are red, baby something, I did a variety of eggs, scrambled, over easy, soft, omelette w/ spam and cheese, potted meats, hope that helps....

me too buddy, and I have 2 more weeks of full liquids. Doctor said up to the consistency of tomato paste.

You can add sugar free pudding! I also blend broccoli cheddar Soup, and I do mashed potatoes at a really thin consistency.

How about cottage cheese?

One of my favorite things at this stage was Taco Bell pintos and cheese. One tiny cup of that was like 4 meals.

Very cool! I'm definitely going to try cottage cheese, pintos and cheese, I heard the Chinese hot and sour soup is great, and i'm definitely going to work on deli meats, I didn't even think of that.

I tried broccoli and cheddar soup and that was a BIG no-no for my stomach. THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS!!!
