What are you eating?
Are you guys eating this food blended ? I am just 2 weeks out and it is time for me to start eating but I am scared to death. I do not know what to eat and the thought of having to put everything in the blender just does not sound good. It sounds like everyone else is doing great. Keep up the good work!

Hi Zandra,
When I was 2 weeks out I was on pureed foods like applesauce and cream of wheat, cottage cheese and yogurt.
When I was 3 weeks is when I started these foods and all I can say is take teeny tiny bites ans chew them until they are flavorless mush, I started with things that are still really watery like ground turkey in marina sauce and babybell cheese cubes because the cheese is so soft it melts in your mouth, also refried beans are good becsue you can mash them up a bit more before putting them in your mouth.
Good Luck!
Im 3 weeks out and can pretty much eat alot of food, except i have to chew it a million times. Im my own blender. I eat lots of egg beaters, refried beans, cottage cheese and pears, tuna, egg salad, laughing cow light cheese, turkey chili, and i think that is about it. Im getting tired of this though. Any ideas on some new foods for 3 week outers?

Hello I just wondered on this board and I am glad I did. More folks like me with the same problems I am having. I am now 6 weeks out and have been on soft foods for 2 weeks or so. I too can pretty much eat everything as long as I chew good. I am tired of Wendys chili. I do eat alot of cottage cheese, and soups though, turkey deli meat, regular cheese, and a couple of crackers with low sugar for 4 crackers. I have not gotten sick off of anything not even eggs. Deviled eggs looked like a good idea I may make some and eat for breakfast! I will be lurking on here more often now
