I went to the doctors today for my 1 week post-op and was down 7lb since surgery. She said I can start puréed food tomorrow but I am really nervous. The only soft food I like is eggs and tuna and I am scared they are not going to agree with me or they are going to get stuck. Does anyone have any advise one foods or handling this next stage?

Pureed foods are different than soft foods.  Pureed foods are things that you've blended until they're a smooth consistency.  Eggs and tuna are not pureed foods, but you can certainly pureed them.  

Here's a list of the things I pureed during those two weeks of my recovery -- http://myvsg.livejournal.com/37151.html

Gwen suggested pureed avacado and a hard boil egg. That is my go to right now. I love it. I also love putting soups & stews in the blender! Yum!
