I've just had a similar job done and, after 12 days I'm still on soups (good, hearty and meaty ones), and cereals (in warm milk to soften them up), good soft bread (no crusts), Mashed spuds and well cooked veggies (from tins)...Other wise ...OK..
(Caramels, fruit drops etc are definitely out at the moment, ...unless you suck them to death).
(Wash your mouth regularly with salt water .. not too strong).

Remember when you had to have your tonsils taken out? It's the same principle... anything that 'goes down' easily... soups, pasta, jello, lots of plain stuff that won't irritate....
