First 'soft' meal tomorrow

[wildthing]

Hi All,

I'm allowed to have something other than liquid tomorrow, yay. Not sure what to have though, what did you guys have as first non liquid thing? Going to feel strange eating again not sure how my band's going to react? Feel almost guilty doing it!!!!

Hi Wildthing

I had a tablespoon of mash potato with a tablespoon of mushy peas, lots of black pepper - heaven!

yep most people 1st try mash, or mash with turnip mashed in with gravy, it sounds boring but tastes devine after the liquid stage.

enjoy !

I've bought morrisons own frozen mash and turnip before now and its yummy. Just take out a few at a time and put in microwave and while thats cooking make a bit of gravy and there you go. no waste as you only need to cook what you need even if its only a tblspoon ful. Aunt Bessy's do it as well but I prefer morissons

you shouldn't feel guilty about eating. you need to eat to live and you deserve to live. also after only having liquids for weeks you really have being denying yourself...and its not as if eating a mushy meal is a massive episode of gluttony

it breaks my hears that so many people feel guilty[ sadly i don't and hence i need to lose weight as i am greedy]

Hi Wildthing how are you doing with your weight loss?

Hiya Baby Jayne - I've lost9lbs in the 2 weeks after surgery

By the way everyone just had mash and beans - lush! Stomach making mad gurgling noises now, its probably in shock! Feel so satiated though, liquids just don't fill you like this do they!!!

glad you enjoyed your meal wildthing, you sound content, as you say nothing like a bit of food to keep the tum happy lol
