Mashed potatos and gravy work pretty well. Maybe small bits of chicken for some meat. You will probably be hungry for a few days, OR toughen up enough to eat other foods carefully. It will take at least a week before the sockets start to heal, so be prepared for some pain with each meal. The soft food thing should only need to be 2-3 days however. MOST people can handle some careful eating of regular food after that. Avoid crunchy foods for a couple of weeks...tortilla chips, etc...
