What are things you ca eat on soft solids?

light fish or shrimp eggs beans refried hummus peanut butter or maybe and i mean maybe lobster or crab/ - if you are really good at it pulled pork - Things to not even try yet - Any soft wet protein or veggies - but take your time go to this stage really slowly

Steak chicken turkey or veggies that are hard No way

I start that stage on Wednesday. I was at Sam's tonight torturing myself in the food section, and found a pimiento cheese spread made from gouda cheese! Only 8 grams fat and no carbs. It should be perfect as soft food!

Think of it as what soft foods you’d feed a baby. Mince, eggs, oatmeal, mushed tinned fish, stewed meats. Thin out with small amounts of salt reduced stocks, watered down gravies, ...

Take it easy. What works for some may not work for you. You’ll be on solid foods before you know it.

Baby oatmeal with a touch of Splenda and a dash of cinnamon (if It doesn't irritate your tummy). Or cooked oatmeal spun in a blender or mini chopper with some milk or water until smooth.

I've had much luck with canned chicken. The chicken has enough broth in the can that you can spin it in the blender until it's soft.

Things like yogurt, eggs, cottage cheese, ground meat and creamed soups are on my plan.

I would think twice about oatmeal since that is a high carb food best saved for maintenance imho.

I was surprised originally by the oatmeal when it was on my Dr’s post surgical meal plan but it said to make it on milk (if tolerated) which adds extra protein. I guess because you can only eat a couple of teaspoonfuls at a time and the fibre helps with the bms it was allowed on my plan. It still takes me four days to eat a a bowl using a sachet lol.

Same! My doc also recommended Cream of Wheat, which was yuk, but it was the only thing I tolerated. But then the tiny cups of smooth baby oatmeal were bliss.

Applesauce, dark meat soft veggies broccoli, canned pears. I can even do the pure protein bars I just take small bites and chew really good mixing it with saliva. Lol.
