Just take your time with the transition and do not move onto soft food if you do not feel ready. It took me quite awhile to transition over. Make sure all the food soft and not dry.

Ok great thanks. I was just going to try a bit in the evening and stick to yogurt for breakfast and soup for lunch. I don't want to change everything all at once

I was so looking forward to some eggs but a few people have said they've struggled with them.

I will, thank you for the advice

I keep the individually packaged frozen tilapia fillets in the freezer. I like to poach them in a little simmering water with lemon slices and some pepper. Comes out very soft and tasty and quick, too!

My go-to on the soft food phase (and still) is oatmeal.

Made a great tilapia the other day. Bariatric Foodie’s tilapia with fire roasted tomato sauce (minus the asparagus) - so good!!!

Fortunately, I give my left-over tilapia to hubby who makes a fish taco out of it.
