What is soft foods???

I get a lot of requests from new members or post-ops about to go on soft foods asking for a list of what is defined as soft foods... Maybe this will help some please feel free to add to the list of I missed any, these are thing I ate after my 8 week liquid diet. <p> Recommended Soft Foods <p> *Nonfat cottage cheese, *Nonfat sugar-free yogurt, *Nonfat and lowfat cheeses, Cooked cereals made with *skim milk. (Flavored cereals contain sugar) Soggy cold cereals which are fat-free and not sugar coated. *Smooth peanut butter until you begin to eat meats (peanut butter contains sugar and is high in calories) use the low fat low sodium kind. Lowfat soups made with *skim milk, Whole wheat crackers or melba toast, Potatoes - baked or boiled- no skin --I very seldom had this (starch), Pasta---I very seldom had this because if (starch) *Macaroni and cheese made with Fat-Free cheese and Skim Milk, Canned fruit - no sugar added, Mashed bananas, Melons mashed, Applesauce or apples - must be peeled, Pears - must be peeled, Peaches or nectarines - must be peeled, Canned vegetables - no seeds Soft cooked vegetables such as carrots, eggplant, beets, green beans, squash and green peas, *Poached soft cooked eggs - no hard or scrambled eggs, Sugar-free popsicles, *Sugar-free pudding made with skim milk, *Tuna salad (made with oil-free tuna), chicken or ham salad made with nonfat mayonnaise (it must be of smooth texture and not chunk) may be tolerated better if blended. I would make my family soups and stews, however, blend my portion to a more soft state. <p> * = Good protein sources ... remember starch is sugar & sugar turns to fat... ;-) <p> Please visit my profile page for more information and links to my webpages.
