solids okay so far.

I started solids today. Well actually I have been eating some solids for about 3 days now. I know---Bad Me. But I really felt fine eating. Today I had Toast for the first time and it went down and I felt fine. Now I just ate some pasta with and experimental enchilada sauce over it (don't ask--low on food options). The pasta so far seems to be staying down. Could it be that all my swelling is completely down and maybe after my fill I will notice for sure if I have problems with certian foods?

It could indeed be that your swelling has gone, yes. And it might not be that you feel any restriction whatsoever, yet. But you should also start trying protein food, like meats, rather than just the carbs. Experiment with a wide range of foods so that when you do go for your fill, you'll know how whether you have any restriction or not. And that will dictate the amount of your adjustment.

Good luck, and remember to take it slow!
