Wildorchids 7 Posted December 28, 2010 I'm having a hard time what's people eating 31/2 weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TijuanaPlication 87 Posted December 28, 2010 Hi Wildorchids, I went slightly ahead of my surgeons guidelines as I was feeling so well and had pretty much anything so long as I chewed it to apple sauce consistency. I'm 4 weeks out now and am officially permitted to do that. I mainly had Weight Watcher ready meals but didn't eat the carb half of the meal, apart from when it came to sausage and mash (yum) I'd have half of the whole meal and save the other half for another day! I'm trying to add more veg as I find so much Protein is constipating (I didn't experience the 'never trust a fart' problem), so tinned carrots are the ticket for me right now as they're pretty mushy and only take a few seconds to heat in the microwave.

Lila21 36 Posted December 28, 2010 I haven't gotten too far into the pureed stage yet (had my first soft-boiled egg today). But, here were the suggestions sent by my friend who recently had the sleeve: Yogurt with no fruit chunks (mix in a little unflavored Protein Powder too. Not too much or the yogurt will get liquidy and weird). Unsweetened applesauce. Scrambled egg beaters - this will taste so good to you right now No chunks of anything like peppers or onions though Egg only. And even mash it up more with your fork before eating it. Refried Beans, oh yum. Fat free taco bell ones are great (from the store, not actually from taco bell.) Heat them up with a little shredded cheese melted on top. Cottage cheese. ANYTHING else you want... as long as it is made into a really soft consistency. You can use a blender or food processor. It sounds yucky but really it's not so bad. You can even do tuna or chicken salad right now... but only if you have processed it to be much more mushy. No chunks of anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twoboysandagirl 109 Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks for starting this thread because I am technically in the stage but I have been afraid to eat. My Nut just kept saying eat moist protien. She said tuna, salmon, chicken all moistend with gravy or Soup or light mayo. I have had a few bites of scrabled egg beaters, egg whites scrambled, tuna with light mayo, applesauce, and a little turkey on christmas day but I am a bit scared of much more... Cant wait to put a half a bannana in my Protein Shake. Any one know when I can do that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
