I wouldn't consider chinese broccoli a mushy, it's usually really crunchy and that's why I like it.

I ate a lot of vegetables with bean curd Soup on my pre-op diet. It's basically steamed veggies and tofu in broth. I bet that would be good, and if you put it in a blender it would get really mushy.

Im right there next to you. Chinese has been my fav. my entire life, I look forward to eating it again just a small portion instead =). I haven't read any restrictions about eating it.

I've not had a problem with chinese after my surgery in May. You could do Wonton or Egg Drop Soup if you're craving now and on mushie/liquid.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
