Double check with your team, but in my plan only certain fish were named, tuna, salmon and certain white fish (simple), doesn't mean your plan doesn't include it.

I had a very tough time with salmon. I was able to eat flounder, tilapia and cod filet without issue.

Scallops! I have had good luck with scallops in the soft food stage. No breading or anything; just a quick broil And I could only eat 2 oz total that’s 2 large or 4 small scallops. Good luck

Seafood chowder would be another option. Unfortunately it’s too early to set sail for Cheddar Bay.

Shrimp is too fibrous, some baked fish in white sauce so it is moist, you will only be able to eat 2-3 oz at most, eat very slowly because our stomachs can be weird with new foods .

I could eat any seafood as long as I chewed it to purée. Salmon was more difficult because if it’s not cooked properly it is dry and your jaw will get tired before it’s chewed enough.
The key is:
Take small...tiny bites and chew it to death before you swallow.
Enjoy!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
