Brian,
Your progress sounds good. I will sit down with something as simple as a bowl of oatmeal before me or a plate of soft vegetables at a cafeteria or yesterday, broiled red snapper at a Greek restaurant...although the mucous is now under control and my mouth is not sore...as you said, the food doesn't have that much taste , and by the time that I get up, it looks like a bird has been pecking at the food. I just cannot seem to eat very much. I don't know if it is due to a shrunken stomach or the swallowing function still healing, but I barely eat one half of much of anything. I am getting a little tired of yogurt and Boost Plus but I realize that all that now stands between me and normal life at the moment is being able to eat and gain weight.
