I've had Chipotle soft tacos a few times and will have a little bit of the corn tortilla with it (protein first, protein first!) and it sits ok with me - I don't room for much of it after all the insides have been eaten. I tried a bit of strawberry in the second or third week with no problem, but haven't had any since (we just don't keep them around right now.) I had a token bit of restaurant salad in the second week with no problem (just the usual problem of salads being served before the protein...), and often have a small salad for lunch with chopped spinach and other veg along with a couple ounces of leftover meat - that started around the end of the third week. YMMV - we all tolerate different things at different times. Try it and if it doesn't work, try again a week or two later.

I just wanted to chime in and say that I'm interested to get the full report on how it went :-).  I'm 6 weeks out, but still on pureeds.  My surgeon's guidelines are pretty conservative... 2 more weeks until I get to start soft foods and no regular food until another 3 weeks after that.

The closest thing I've had to solid food, other than that accidental raspberry, is when I chewed a hot dog down to pureed consistency on the 4th of July ;p.

Ahhh good ole Mew Mexican food. Im still pre op for a couple more weeks, but I still at a loss to what to do about it. When we eat out it's usually new Mexican food in Las Cruces, and my husband loves me to make it all the time, he is from NM. I'm going to miss red and green chilie not on tortillias, and sopillias.
