I did have a big win today - I can move to smooth foods I immediately went to KFC and got mashed potatoes. Only had maybe one spoonful, but it made all the difference. it tasted absolutely wonderful. I'm looking forward to cottage cheese, yogurt, creamy Soups. I'm taking it very very very slow, but it's nice to have something other than broth and Water.

Consider masked cauliflower s with a splash of milk and a bit of butter instead of potatoes, far less calories and carbs. Same with canned cream Soup. I make cream soup by cooking a pound of low cal veggies and preening with broth and milk. I decide up into 6oz containers. After heating it (up to 140 degrees or the Protein will clump. I add a scoop of unflavored protein power mixed with enough warm milk to make it smooth.

You can substitute 1/2 can unsweetened coconut milk for the 1% milk for more fat and a different flavor. ,I like curry coconut

I loved my first spoonful of mashed potatoes too. I will always love them, but now at 4.5 mths I don't really desire them anymore. Strange, but good things are happening!

My NP told me to go to KFC and have mashed potatoes and gravy as my first mushy, too. She said that I could only have them once a week or so and to scrape off more gravy than potato. DELICIOUS. Like you, I could only handle a bit, but it was heavenly after a month of liquids.

Yummy!!!!
