I have a kinda dumb question. I was recently banded and joined my fitness pal. I started puree today and decided to start logging from this day forward. Ok here comes the question......................does blended food have the same nutritional value, for example if I took a baked potato, cheese, sour cream, etc and put in the mixer, is it the same? The reason I asked because I just entered it as a baked potatoe and the topping on my list. I know it seems like a stupid question, but I am new to this and just want to get everything right.

It's blended in your stomach right ? So yes you did the right thing.

If you use instant potatoes, read the back of the package, and it will tell you 1/2 cup = so may calories.

That's different then a real potato. So just look it up, and click on it or,,, enter it if it's not already in memory.

Good Question..;)

I registered for myfitnesspal some time ago but never really got into it. However, over the last week I've been seeing several post stating how helpful the site has been for everyone. Well, I've started to use and I very impressed. Now I just needs some pals. If anyone is interested in being my friend, I am Keetalove.

      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.
