Good Bye Strainer , Hello Blender!

[Liliana Arleen 173]

I thought this day was never going come lol I am finally starting my purees after 4 weeks in liquids pre op 2 and post op 2 as well. I am excited to use my blender

for something else that is not Protein Shakes LOL I know people asked this question before but I would like to see how your menu consisted when you were in puree diet?

Like any ideas besides tuna, green Beans, refried beans? I am quiet confused about the amounts I am suppose to start eating. I will see my surgeon tomorrow so I will ask him as well but I want different opinions to have some more ideas TIA my lovely sleeve sisters

1/2 cup for starters maybe less than that and should be a consistency of baby food!

canned tuna, salmons, finely ground up meat, mashed taters (yeay), low fat chili, cottage cheese, ricotta cheese (ewww), etc, etc!!!

*JUST MAKE SURE YOU CHEW IT LIKE 200 TIMES, lol BEFORE SWALLOWING:)

GOODLUCK.............

I just started my puree / mushie food today (1 day early) and i had egg whites w/ cheese and its prob the best meal i have ever had, only cause liquids was killing me.... try that, its great.... I also made mashed potatoes w/ gravy. chicken salad and tuna salad and i used my magic bullet. It feels so good to eat again

My staple food during purée and Soups stage was like a chicken Soup.

Put all the following ingredients in the blender:

-Roasted veggies ( I liked to do up quite a bit and keep them in a ziplock in the fridge for a quick grab)

- roasted chicken

- chicken broth ( homemade is better protein- just boil the bones from the roasted chicken)

- milk ( optional)

- powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup powder ( optional)

Purée fully - strain if needed.

I sometimes added chili or curry spices to keep it varied. I also started to make it very thick as I went along in stages
