I was put on purée 7/1/15, but I feel like I'm eating to much . 

 

I eat all day like 1 to 2 oz a day. Is this normal ? Am I stretching my new stomach out ? 

1 stewed chicken wing , shrimps about 3, 1 crab leg, 2 protein shakes , I feel that's to much lol

That doesn't sound like too much, but that doesn't sound like pureed food to me. Are you pureeing the meats (chicken and shell fish?) prior to eating?

If you need ideas for pureed food, go here: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/08/pureed-foods.html

When I was on pureed food I was told to eat 2 oz or no more than 1/4 cup if I went by volume (which early out is a very good idea, btw!). I had three separate 1/4 cup meals per day. I supplemented my protein with 2 to 3 protein shakes per day. It wasn't until I was 4 to 6 weeks out that I was able to eat enough solid food to reduce to 1 or 2 protein shakes per day.

It sounds like you've advanced yourself to soft foods, which are different than pureed foods.  It's easy enough to blend any of the stuff you've been eating in a blender or food processor.

Advancing your diet too fast can be a bad thing, yes.  It can cause damage and complications.  Like I said, there's a reason the diet progression exists and it's best to stick to it while you're still healing.

Oh yeah I am wishing you the best and success.  I am glad you got scared and are now doing the right thing with your food.  You could have hurt yourself if you continued.

Good Day
