Any mushy/soft food ideas?



Recommended Posts

I am one week post op today. Whoop whoop. The doctor just released me for soft foods. They said I could have mashed potatoes, tuna fish, over cooked Pasta, eggs, etc. Even canned meat, as long as its soft. Does anyone have any ideas or recipes they used for this stage? I have been doing good, had a baked sweet potato for lunch, it was yummy!! But I would like more ideas for the next week!

  • My doctor said I could have cottage cheese. IDK about the tomatoes. During my 1st week post-op, they said to blend the cottage cheese, but to me that sounded nasty. I did have some just now, took small bites and chewed really good. Hope you can have some soon.

I was banded two weeks before turkey day and I was cleared for stage 2 (mushy foods) about 2-3 days before and I enjoyed a smidgen of everything it took me like an hour because I sat there and cheer everything until it was mush!!!!! If you look up Emily bites she has some really great food ideas on there and they are portioned smaller for people on weight watchers or those who had Bariatric surgery..... I hope this helps!!!! Good luck with your journey!!!! :-D

      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.
