I'm on pureed foods right now too.

I used canned chicken breast and pureed it in my mini food processor with a little mayo, dijon mustard, salt, pepper and a little onion powder. It was very yummy and really hit the spot.

I also made stuffed green peppers and pureed it with a little extra Tomato sauce and it was really good.

Have you tried Greek yogurt? It is high in Protein but you wanna get the unflavored kind. Then you can flavor it with sugar free preserves and sugar free flavoring Syrup like Torani, that's what I use anyway. I am 1 month out and on soft foods now but I still eat the Greek yogurt for snack bc it is soo good and high in protein. Also if you order some unflavored protein,you can mix it in anything you eat. www.unjury.com is where I order from. LOVE their protein! You can make some mashed potatoes and mix the protein in it. They even have protein in the form of cheddar cheese sauce,it's awesome on mashed potatoes or mashed cauliflower if you wanted a healthier option.

I didn't like the texture of the canned chicken but my nutritionist said I would be OK using regular cooked chicken as long as I kept it moist and chewed thoroughly. I actually bought rotisserie chicken from costco and that stayed really moist - I made chicken salad with it with LF mayo during my mushy/puree phase. I ate a ton of cottage cheese and string cheese, both were allowed during that phase for me and high in Protein (I would recommend the lower-fat options of both). I also ate a lot of refried Beans with shredded 2% cheese, a bit of LF sour cream and salsa or taco bell mild sauce.

Is this the same thing as putting the food in the blender?

I was having some Laughing Cow Light swiss wedges with Peanut Butter. Sometimes I'd even stir them together. It's really good. It's the right texture for your stomach without having to actually blend anything. Also, the same cheese with 1/4 avocado is great too. It has important Omega 3's. Gooood stuff. :) Decent Protein too. I also agree with the Greek yogurts. Very high in protein. Some are better than others, so don't give up on them if you try one you don't like.

I tried it but I had to modify cuz the blender didn't want to blend. I just put some Tomato and Water in it to get in blended. I should've put some chicken juice or something but eh. It is so good!!!!

      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.
