Hi all, I am 12 days post op and I feel like ever since I got out of hospital I have been eating high sugar/high fat food and not enough Protein. Can anyone please give me a sample day of what I should be eating in pureed stage? This is me right now: Breakfast: 3 dessert spoons of yogurt (mango flavor) Lunch: chicken Soup (chicken/potato/carrots) pureed or Shrimp Bisque (evaporated milk, prawns) pureed about 1/4 - 1/2 cup Dinner: chicken broth OR Optifast shake (so high in sugar yuck) What should I do I really want to be good?! I have purchased ingredients to make ricotta bake as I've seen in other pages but I dont know if it's good for me anyway!?! SO LOST!

Hi all, really need some ideas on what to eat. Please can you share what your meal plan is on an average day? Breakfast Snack #1 lunch Snack #2 dinner Also how many days/months post op are you? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE really need help as I am struggling..

Hi thanks for the reply, what sort of protein shake are you drinking?

Thanks for all the input! I will follow what you guys are doing once I'm in 6 weeks. I am just in week 2 at the moment. Today my focus is to get in 60 grams of protein and very very low sugars. Breakfast: Protein shake 150 calories, 22 g protein and 7 g carbs (2.5g of which are sugar) Lunch: Ricotta Bake pureed 200 cals (9g carbs, 15g protein) Dinner: Protein Shake 150 calories, 22 g protein and 7 g carbs (2.5g of which are sugar) Fingers crossed this is good for me!

Thank you! Anyone else what do is your daily menu?

Hi all I am 12 days post op and I can really relate. For me it's mostly head hunger.... I was dreaming of parmesan crisps given I have been on liquid / pureed diet for so long now..... I miss being able to chew on crispy food and eating popcorn etc. What I now do is just whip a yummy dinner up and feed my loved ones while I watch and feed on my pureed refried beans and mince... A few more weeks and we can chew again!! Let's stay strong!
