I'm having a brain fade...

Hey guys..  I'm suddenly feeling stupid.  (easy on agreeing! LOL).  I am 6 weeks out and I am eating soup for dinner.  I don't know why I am suddenly forgetting if I can have more than my alotted 2oz ????   Isn't it ok to have more?  Isn't it kinda sorta like the protein shakes and you can sip on it for a while?    I got one of thos Campbell's Soup at Hand and I want to sip on it for a while...  I'm COLD!  Connie -

Hey Girl, Diane told me 1/4 cup that's it. Tomato with milk or bean soups pureed........ I have had 1/4 of lentil soup a few times. I feel like I am wasting so much food.  When do you get to your next step? I go see Diane this Thursday I can't wait to see what's next. I need a change bad.................

I go Monday!!!   THANK GOODNESS!!!  I'm probably gonna go straight to a fish camp from my appointment and get either some baked flounder or grilled shrimp!!  ROFL!   I think that is the next stage... seafood.   You doing ok?  I'm glad to see you again...

I am doing GREATTTTTTTTTT. All my protein in, water, walking...... Back to work....... I really want to move to the next stage..... I hope it's more then fish......... like no more pureed.........  The story you told about your dad in another post made me smile. Sounds like how my dad was. Very supportive and so positive about everything. I miss him so much and his tender smile..... How lucky you are....... sweet as sweet can be......... I love my fobi pouch................  

You may have 3 oz of high-protein soups and yogurt. 

Hey Dena Girl, glad to see you again.,  We have had the fobi pouch so for us it is a little different. :)

Hey there Ms. Connie~~ First thank you for your letter about Sir Wally!! I hadn't had a chance to get back with you!!  BUSY BUSY ME lol Was just going to tell you, I'm not sure what the difference is in ya'lls pouch... BUT, I felt the same way you did about fish!! LET'S GO GET SOME BABY!!!   HOWEVER, for the first 4 days that I was allowed, I tried, scallops, shrimp, talapia (if that's spelled right lol), salmon, and canned tuna!!  I lost every one of them!!  I was SOOOOOOOOO disappointed!!  I am now almost 4 months out and STILL can't take shrimp, "fish", or salmon!!!  VERY FRUSTRATING!!  So, my advice, (not that you asked for it lol)  GO SLOW and enjoy it all if you can take it!!  TAKE CARE and we'll talk soon!!! CONNIE

Hey YOU...

i said that about scrambled eggs.  I craved a scraamble egg so bad.  It was a comfort food for me as a kid.  (go figure?)..  So the minute I could have soft food I had one.  It was a very disappointed moment.  I got soooo sick.  Now I'm sure it was because I woofed it down , but in my mind of course I havent' been able to think about one.  You better not have jinxed me about the fish girl...  you will be in trouble.  LOL

Lets go get some fish!!

Scallops, scallops, scallops  - at six weeks, they were awesome for me.  Tuna, not so much.  Shrimp, oh yeah!  Salmon worked well, too.  You guys are right, at least in my experience.  Taking it really, really slow, helps a lot.  Oh, and clam chowder.  I actually add some canned clams to the chowder to increase the protein.
