Hello all!

What is the difference between full liquids and "mushies"? Are mashed potatos a mushy? What's a puree? I'm almost hooked on mashed potatos with broth. Damn it's good! I think it may have halted my wight loss though. I had it for lunch and dinner 2 days in a row! About 1/2 cup each svg.

Whew! I feel both ashamed and relieved to have said that out loud.

Don't know if this is right, but I think of "full liquids" as being "clear liquids" - broth, jello, sf popsicles, water, crystal lite, etc.

I think of mushies and puree'd as being semi-soft foods - pudding, yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, anything that could be put in a blender and made into a semi-liquid/solid.

This was how my dietician exlained it to me, I hope this is helpful!
