If you get to Stage 2 (puree), try the Quaker Weight Control oatmeal (1/2 packet, extra water). I found that to be very satisfyiing and kept me from being hungry. Same with mashed potatoes. I know both are starchy items, but the oatmeal has protein so it isn't too bad. I was thrilled when my doctor moved me to semi-solid foods 2 days ago. I had my first egg this morning, but hard boiled it. I had read a few folks had trouble with the scrambled eggs. I haven't had any problems, so far (fingers crossed).
Hopefully your dr. will advance you today. Just take it slowly, eat half of what they say to start to avoid getting sick..
You can do this!
