Having problems with post-op diet..... please help...!

I had my Open RNY surgery on December 1st and have lost 23 lbs... though I can't see it at all! I'm really having a tough time with the post-op diet and it seems that each doctor varies. I was to be on protein liquids for the first 3 weeks and on the 2nd week, my doctor graduated me to soft scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes and refried beans; in addition to the protein shakes. Truth is.... I'm absolutely sick with this diet! Christmas was very hard for me; I watched everyone at the table enjoy a scrumptious meal and before I got really nasty, I took myself to bed! <grin!> I know I should be thankful for having this surgery and the weight loss so far; but I guess... I still need something to gripe about! I'm just so tired of what I'm eating and wondered if there's other options for soft/pureed foods... thanks!
