I'm 1 week postop lap RNY & eating

I've been hungry on clear fluids so tried real food today. I had 6 oz.water/Gatorade with 3 teaspoons of grits for breakfast, Taco Bell Pintos & Cheese for lunch, and a scrambled egg with a teaspoon each of KFC cole slaw and mashed potatoes. I did fine and I actually feel better tahn taking clear fluids only. Is it O.K. for me to proceed? I also had 24 oz. water today and 24 oz. unsweetened ice tea with Sweet & Low, with a bowl of sugra-free Jello (overall a mixture of clear fluid with soft foods). Thanks for advice and experience from all you "real" posties!
