Yogurt was a lifesaver for me too, but honestly, after day three I was so sick of sweet stuff I almost cried, lol. Ended up making savory soups and blending them smooth—sounds weird but trust me, blended chicken noodle soup is surprisingly decent... desperate times!

Haha, blended chicken noodle soup sounds questionable, but I might give it a shot. Did you strain out the noodles first, or just blend everything together? Texture-wise, was it gritty or smooth enough to handle comfortably?
Blended chicken noodle soup actually isn't too bad—I tried it after my wisdom teeth came out. Didn't strain the noodles, just tossed it all in the blender. The texture was a little weird at first, kinda grainy from the noodles, but manageable if you blend it long enough. Honestly though, lukewarm soups were easier on my mouth than hot ones... heat sensitivity was no joke those first few days. Good luck!
Blended chicken noodle soup sounds like a solid idea, actually. Wish I'd thought of that when I had mine out. I mostly survived on mashed sweet potatoes and lukewarm oatmeal—hot stuff was definitely a no-go for me too. One thing that helped a lot was blending up canned peaches or pears with some yogurt. It was sweet enough to feel like dessert but still gentle on the mouth. Also, if you're getting tired of smoothies, scrambled eggs cooked super soft and cooled down were surprisingly easy to manage after a couple days. Just make sure they're not too hot or dry... learned that the hard way, haha. Hang in there—it gets better pretty quick!
Blended chicken noodle soup...wish I'd thought of that! I mostly stuck to applesauce and pudding cups, but scrambled eggs were a lifesaver for me too. Took me a couple tries to get the texture right—first batch was way too dry. You're definitely on the right track though, it really does get easier after the first few days. Hang in there, you'll be back to regular meals before you know it.
