3 Weeks Post Op - Traveling For The Weekend

[wildrose1966 396]

I am 3 weeks out on pureed and blenderized and am traveling for work this weekend. Hotel rooms and hosting clients at a football game. I know I can do the yogurt, cream of wheat for bfast, and Soup for the other meals as I am sure not going to ask a restaurant to puree my meat for me, and I am going to bring some of my Optifast to help out especially for the football game in a catered suite. My instructions say thinned mashed potatoes, pasta.........so I can probably get away with a small portion of Pasta, well chewed if I end up in a restaurant setting. Have been doing so great with eating my chicken Protein this week, I suppose if I could find a rotissere chicken well cut up and chewed I could possibly get by on that too.

Any other suggestions would be great.

Okay not necc. diet food but this is kind of a unavoidable. Just think how much worse you would have eaten preop.

If you are going to be in a luxury box (have you been in one before, they are a WHOLE NEW WORLD), pull the waitor/tress aside and tell them you need to eat mushies type foods. They can probably get you something custom made. I once went to a Patriots game at the new Gillette stadium (Okay showing my age calling a stadium that is 12 years old new!) and sat in a corporate box. We had our own waitress and bartender.

Anyway food options: mash potato, thin oatmeal, mashed califlower, cheese/broccali Soup, pulled pork or pulled chicken with BBQ Sauce, yogurt (no added granola, canned style tuna fish, egg salad, mashed squash.
