So I'm on the mushy phase and i feel like all I eat is crap. I can have mashed potatoes, cottage cheese, scrambled eggs. I have two of the three pretty much every day.

Greek yogurt is really good with a scoop of unflavored Unjury powder. Packs a good protein punch. It won't be long before you can spread your wings a bit. Just let your tummy heal. You'll get there.

Refried Beans with a little cheese or unflavored greek yogurt (tastes like sour cream but higher protein).

Cheese sticks (loved string cheese in the early days)

chicken or tuna salad (I love doing chicken salad with a few red grapes chopped up, some mayo and a touch of curry powder)

I don't like Beans or Greek yogurt. I have been doing well with cheese though! I don't like tuna, but I had some mushy salmon and it made me throw up almost instantly

Yeah I am ready for some real meat and not so many carbs. I don't eat a lot of carbs normally so having grits, mashed potatoes, refried Beans, Etc is not my cup of tea. I have had Greek yogurt but dairy and I never got along too well. But it's just a little longer--one more week--and then I can have fish and other higher Protein.

It can be very hard at this stage - so don't beat yourself up! Just do what you can until you can start introducing the real stuff.

I lived off of canned ham mixed with low fat mayo. High in sodium, but it helped with my meat cravings.

I know what you mean with the lack of options. I'm very adamant about eating clean - artificial ingredients actually make me ill & finding all natural foods that fit what I'm allowed to eat does not offer much variety. Look for this yogurt called Smari, it's Icelandic yogurt. It's higher in Protein, lower in sugar, and in my opinion tastes better than Greek yogurt. Target carries it.

Icelandic yogurt is great as shared. There are many brands and sometimes it is called Skyr. It is smoother and not bitter like Greek yogurt. I wouldn't eat it all day because it has much more carbs -- I don't think I have ever seen it in plain flavor.

Smari does have a plain flavor too. I think they call it Pure instead of plain.

@@debd80 That sounds so good...I'm still on liquids, would give anything for an egg or canned ham/mayo!!!

Lowfat cottage cheese and eggs are both pretty healthy... you can also try stuff like chili made with ground chicken or ground turkey - lowfat meat is already ground up in there and you get the healthy beans too... also bean salads with most any bean - black, kidney, edamame, or chickpeas - are very healthy.

They have chili that comes with no Beans, you have have lentil Soup (if u like lentil), egg drop soup, also go to website "the world according to eggface" and try her ricotta bake and cheese cauliflower since you like cheese - these r delicious
