There are so many things but here are a few I used during the mushies:

Avocado, sweet potatoes, yogurt, baby food, bananas, Jello, cottage cheese...

Hope this helps...

Awesome... Thanks for the ideas. Do soft cheeses also count as mushies? I'm dying for a little bite of mozzarella!

Every doctor's advice is different, but in my mushy face I was told to eat eggs, cheese, deli meat, and soft veggies. I lived off of Laughing Cow and Roast Beef.

Yes, yes and yes. I went through the same thing 4 weeks ago to the day! The gas will get better over the next few days. The stomach noises will continue. Good luck!

      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.
