Puréed Stage: what are you eating?
Sleevedham replied to lisamstevens's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds yummy, what's the recipe?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I can't preview this, so I hope I've clicked the right button. No set recipe. It's just cauliflower and boiled eggs with a cheese sauce. I used 2 heads of cauliflower, 12 boiled eggs and used a litre of milk in my cheese sauce (there's a recipe here that's roughly similar. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/233481/cheese-sauce-for-broccoli-and-cauliflower/) This makes A LOT, but I just wanted to do it in one hit and freeze a bunch. We used to have it weekly (unpureed) for dinner growing up, so it's probably why I love it so much. I'm now on soft foods, so I've been adding some well cooked vegetables chunks (pumpkin and peas) into the purée. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Puréed cauliflower cheese (includes boiled eggs in the purée). It's liquid gold. I portion it out into silicon muffin tray molds, freeze it and then deposit the frozen pieces into a container, so I know each piece is 120ml. I could eat it for every meal. Haha. I drink Protein shakes to up my protein intake. They are nasty, but it's good for me. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
How to avoid awkwardness during group meals?
Sleevedham posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am due for surgery in April (yay!), however I have weekly music practice on a Thursday, part of which is a team dinner. There are 20 people involved, but I'm not close enough to them all that I would feel comfortable telling everybody about the surgery. I am involved in running the team, so I can't not be there. I plan to take a few weeks off at the beginning, but any suggestions on how to navigate the first few months would be greatly appreciated! I'm going to start restricting my meal sizes at team dinners now, so that it's not a dramatic change post surgery. Sent from my iPhone using BariatricPal -

Sorry. Should have specified. It's premade. Someone prepares a meal for the team. And it's usually something very starchy. Sent from my iPhone using BariatricPal
