Cleared for puréed/soft what should I try first??

Hey everyone 

saw the Nut today I'm exactly 2 weeks post op have lost 15 pounds and cleared for stage 4 for me that is soft mushy food! 

Im going to take it slow of course and only try 1 new thing at a time but trying decide what's the best thing to start with? 

Scrambled eggs? Tuna fish? Cheese? 

What did some of you find easy to do the first few times? 

Thanks all!!! 

Eggs can be challenging for some people, so just be prepared!  I enjoyed pureed chicken curry.  Yum.  

My gotos where:

Breakfast - scrambled eggs

Lunch - Tuna or Salmon from a can/pouch (man I hate this stuff now)

Dinner - Same or lunch or maybe some bean substance.  I tried to limit beans due to the carb to protein ratio.

My first thing was scrambled eggs and I found it too heavy

only got 2-3 forkfuls in ( toddler fork)

i switched to googie eggs ( over easy) and that didn't upset my stomach like 

the scrambled did, but even that I could only eat 1/2 of...

I eventually ate scrambled again maybe I gave it a month..

tuna also may be too heavy in the beginning..

lucky duck!  2 weeks out I was on full liquids and then soft foods.  

Fish was really good b/c I wanted meat!  I also pureed meat loaf w/ gravy.  It sounds gross, but I wanted meat so badly.  Enjoy!

It was such a pleasure to be on purees after the two weeks of full liquids. Do you have a NutriBullet? You can do all kinds of things with that. I also loved Trader Joe's fat-free refried beans with a little bit of cheese and a dash of sour cream. Eggface also has a great ricotta bake -- check out her site!

Thanks everyone! I had scrambled egg beaters and 1 laughing cow cheese square! Went down fine only ate 1/4 cup of eggs 

my puréed / soft stage does not include any meat other than fish 

I can have eggs, a lot of different cheese, tuna, haddock, tilapia, Refried beans, mashed potatoes, squash and hummus 

then stage 5 enters ground meat 

stage 6 is getting back to everything else breads pastas fruits and veggies 

so far doing great! 

I started with watermelon, mushed in my mouth. Really refreshing, but could only have about 3 or 4 bites. Laughing cow wedge cheese too!!! Cottage cheese also. I am going to try the ricotta bake this weekend, it looks delish!

I took the different flavors of instant potatoes in a package......made them thin to soup consistency and then added cheese......I loved hot potato soup!  Could only eat a little at a time and didn't want to over do the carbs but they went down smooth.

If you do try scrambled eggs, would recommend NOT overcooking them and keeping them a little wet. I did mostly tuna or egg salad at that stage of the game. Tuna was the best for me. Just make sure you keep chewing really well. I also did meatloaf. Ground beef never gave me an issue but I know is challenging for others.
