Scrambled eggs were my favorite thing, especially with cheese melted on top. I remember having applesauce, mashed potatoes, ricotta bake (like lasagne with no noodles) egg salad, and I still love putting bananas in my yogurt. There are lots of different flavors of single servinge applesauce now...check on the canned fruit aisle. That first bite of food...I remember thinking I'd died and gone to heaven...enjoy!

I am loving baked sweet potato with a little artificial sweetener. I am a southern girl so I love my grits and scrambled egg. chicken salad and egg salad are good too. broiled fish that is soft is also a good choice...even ate at Bonefish with my hubby and brought leftovers home for dinner the next night. Good luck. It really is fun after liquids only.

My favorite mushy was refried black Beans pureed with my stick blender. It's got Protein and Fiber. Put some shredded cheese on top and warm in the microwave.

I also loved me some Cream of Wheat with cinnamon and a touch of brown sugar. I know it has tons of sodium, but I also ate a couple of small cans of Deviled Ham, just a few bites at a time. Also had creamy Peanut Butter, lots of yogurt, and pureed tuna salad.

I blended my food, so i had minced hamburger and turkey meat (fat free of course) , refried Beans, eggs very soft cooked, cheeses, apple sauces, anything but blended with broth, Soups, lentils, Beans, etc. . . sometimes i still do it that way cause my tummy liked it and it goes down really well. . .

      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.
