Hi there eating post op for me wasn't too bad I just chewed and swallowed on the good side and stuck to maneuverable food (not mushy crap as that's a nightmare) - for me soft chewable veggies,vOmelettes , pasta etc... We're more manageable than say - mashed potatoes and pur�ed food. Hugs and hoping for a speedy recovery for you.. smile
