I'll be two weeks post-op tomorrow. I'm doing well, I think, but got bored with

pureed foods so I've moved on to regular soft foods, chewed well with sips of water. I fill up very quickly and then stop eating, and I've tolerated this just fine, but am wondering if there is a reason why I shouldn't be doing this. It's my understanding that everyone's tolerance is different and a lot of post-op eating is trial-and-error. Is it okay to be doing this, as long as the amount is within the doctor's guildeline of 3-4 oz? Did anybody else move to regular foods so quickly, and if so, were there any ill effects?
