Soft Food Stage

May 26, 2010

I started soft food stage this week.  Its the hardest week I've had so far with food, I think.  My first lesson I learned is that 2 oz. of green beans is not the same thing as 2 oz. of pureed food.  I can only take about 2 or 3 bites of the soft foods.  They fill my stomach much, much faster.  I ate eggs the first day that morning and they sat fine.  I tried tuna with mayo, and it sat really, really heavy.  I also tried a little mac and cheese and it was very sticky.  I know I shouldn't have done mac and cheese but I hadn't hardly eaten anything that was sitting well, so I thought I'd try it since it was soft.  So for dinner I had another scrambled egg.  Again, it sat well.  Tuesday morning I had a scrambled egg again.  I think I took too big of a bite, I threw it back up.  And once you throw up an egg, it really turns you off of eggs for a while, not matter what made you throw it up!  LOL
Yesterday I had mini-bite ravioli's.  They sat pretty good.  But the best thing yet, I had cooked squash last night and it went down so smooth and sat very well.  My favorite so far this week!!!
So, this week has definitely been the biggest challenge!
