DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted May 10, 2013 I'm on the mushy foods Anything you can put through a blender and mush to baby food consistency you can have. tuna salad, egg salad, chicken salad, or ham salad put through a blender are great. You can even blend cottage cheese or plain yogurt into cream Soups for extra Protein. Chili put through the blender with some cream cheese is yummy, too. Just think Protein and blender. 1 ANewMe428 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsto 2,925 Posted May 10, 2013 Cottage cheese really helped me during the mushy phase. Also - refried Beans were a favorite; still are. Greek yogurt was also good, especially with some added apple sauce; unsweetened, of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlkumes 42 Posted May 10, 2013 I have not been banded yet but I am really worried about pre and post op. I cannot imagine anything tasting good through a blender and im really fussy. Don't eat cottage cheese at all. Can't we just chew the tuna really good so it mushed in our mouth? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't eat cottage cheese at all. Can't we just chew the tuna really good so it mushed in our mouth? I'm on purée foods right now and am blending what needs it. It's all in your good (as it was mine). The taste is the same, just different texture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
