I just got moved to mushies. Tonight I tried 1/2 of a cornbread muffin soaked in milk. It sat fine, but I feel guilty for some reason. It had 2 g protein in the mix and only 6 g sugar, so I wasn't over on anything. This ok?

The concern would be that you aren't getting much protein. Especially early out, like you are, its best to make everything count. You don't want to be filling that new little pouch with low protein food. Its hard enough to get your protein in.
