Why did I do this to myself. I can't eat anything but liquids.

I am 3 weeks postop and having a bad start. I went in last weekend to have my EGD done but they couldn't do it because my esophagus was so swollen. So I was admitted and put back onto the liquids only. Now today I was given the okay to start soft foods. I tried some egg salad for lunch (3 bites) and ended up throwing it up. Please tell me it will get better. I am going to have to call my surgeon again and tell him the solids aren't going down. Any help??
