NEED HELP FIGURING OUT DIET

I CAN'T SEEM TO DEAL TO MUCH WITH THE BABY FOOD OR THE FOOD PROCESSOR. I KNOW THAT I SHOULD NOT DO THIS , BUT I'M EATING SOFT FOODS 3 WEEKS OUT OF SURGERY. I CHEW THIS UNTIL IT'S ALMOST LIQUID..... HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM???????????????????????????????

Hi Leonard, I think soft foods should be OK. I was given eggs in the hospital, and have been eating soft foods since I left the hospital. Doctors have different rules, so I guess you should speak with your doc. Debbie -36

Its okay. If your pouch can stand it and you process it into mush in your mouth its okay. Just don't have anything with pieces that might block the pouch. Chew, chew, chew-the best processer there is.

I had terrible problems chewing everything when I first started eating. After a few times of getting food "Stuck" cured that and now I don't even have to make myslef chew - I just do it and don't even think about it. Its gross, but there are times I almost swallow and I know its not been chewed enough and I catch it and...kind of.....squeeze it back up to finish chewing. Real appetizing!

HI leonard, every doctor is different . I was on pureed foods day three out of the hospital for 6 weeks. the only time I was on liquids was my first day in the hospital. oddly enough the menu for pureed foods from my dietician isnt exactly what I would have considered pureed. its mainly just very soft things. wendy's chili is considered pureed in my menu, so I liv on that mainly for lunch and dinner. I can eat about a half of a small wendy's chili , it tasts good, and has some good protein in it. at 6 weeks I can now eat real food but find myself staying mainly to the ones I know work well. Steak and cheese sandwiches without any bread seem to work well for me as long as the meat is very chopped up. seafood has been out for me as for some reson I have become intolerant to it. hope that will change with time. check with your dietician. joe
