Up until now, I had been eating a bit of tuna, a bit of egg: all individual lonely ingredients in my "mushy" phase. I have read posts about bandsters indulging in pizza, muffins, spaghetti and other real foods. I haven't had the luxury, yet. The whole concept of getting "stuck" scares the bejeebus out of me. So eating a real taco was an exciting thrill. And it tasted sooooo good! I was definitely full off of my one taco. On hindsight, it might have been a little too much food. But, it wasn't overly packed with ingredients. It was just the right amount of savory meat, sharp cheddar, and crunchy goodness. I ate it slow, and chewed it down to nothing before swallowing. Sorry to go on and on about the taco, but it was a great moment! As Russ said, "It's so good to see you off of liquids". Me too, baby!
So last night, I had dinner. Actual dinner! It was a TACO. One delicious taco with meat and cheese and a crispy tortilla shell. I even cooked up tacos for the entire family.

Yay for real food! I was also soooo scared about getting stuck when I got to the real food stage. I'm happy to report that at 7 weeks post-op, I still have not gotten stuck on anything, not even bread (knock on wood!!). Congrats on all of your success so far :)
