Soft foods???
I am now 3 weeks post-op and I have done clear liquids, full liquids, and purreed foods and now I am supposed to move onto soft foods. But I am a little confused on what qualifies as a soft food. I called my Dr's office but when they called back I missed the call and she left me some off the wall answer, not really answering my question! LOL So I just wanted to know what everyone else was eating as soft foods so I could get some ideas. Thanks a bunch!!!
my dr said chicken, turkey, fish and seafood, lowfat chesse soft vegetables, soft fruits, very crisp toast. plus what you ate on full liquids and purred foods. i started soft foods last week and evey thing is going good. you just have to try things and see what you can eat. just make sure you chew chew chew hope this helps
