Soft foods!

[auttinicole 23]

Hi! I start soft and puréed foods tomorrow (woohoo!!) and was wondering if deli turkey chewed well is ok. Or the Morningstar Breakfast patties or burger pattis would be ok? They're made of Beans and such and I know they can fall apart easily and be chewed down well. Or should I wait still on those? Oh! And what about turkey pepperoni as little Protein pick me ups? I bought an egg, tuna, and avocado to get started. So excited!!

Hi! I had surgery 11/18/15. I was told I could start soft foods tomorrow 11/29/15 and two weeks after that I can start regular foods.

I also had surgery 11/18/15 and my list says week 1 & 2 liquids & work your way to yogurt & oatmeal. Week 3 & 4 eggs, tuna, soft flaky fish, mashed & gravey, soft veggies & other software foods. Week 5, have 3 full meals & 2 Protein Snacks.

But I'm noticing some ppl eating soft foods like eggs week 2 instead of wk 3.
