On Monday, I will be 8 weeks out and I officially graduate from mushies to solids. Unfortunately, I do not meet with my NUT until Friday, so my questions to all you sleevers is what were your favorite first solid foods? What was harder to eat and so I should wait till later? I assume that I will be putting off steak, nuts, seeds, corn, asparagus, celery a bit longer. But wondering if I can actually try a salad? I haven't had salad since before my pre-op diet. I'm already taking pills instead of crushing everything and those are going down fine.

I have already been eating slow roasted fork shredded chicken, various cheeses, mashed potatoes, ground beef (in spaghetti sauce). I guess I'm wondering things like - even though I still think its too early to bite down on a celery stick, because it might be too fibrous, I'm wondering if I can start putting chopped celery in my tuna salad. Things like that.

So please let me know what worked well and what didn't.

_{@@Dub I want to eat everything you grilled. I am at work wanting to grill because I couldn't taste a thing. Everything looked so delicious!!}
