Am I The Only One? Yucky Puree



Recommended Posts

I started Puréed foods today, I have no

Problems getting my liquids down and Protein, had some Mozerella cheese today and some turkey, (small tiny bites) went down fine with no issues, I'm chewing it down to nothing before swallowing... the thought of Purée really turns me off... Is this okay? I'm only a week out?

I was like that too, especially toward the end of my pureed stage. When I told my NUT that I literally pureed my meat and all else, she was surprised. She said most people admit that they just cook it really tender and chew well but it's a pureed stage for a reason. As a result she moved me up a half week earlier to soft foods than expected.

What I did was ate a lot of tilapia (sp) fish (which since it is SO tender esp in how you make it) my NUT agreed that I wouldn't have to puree it; and eggs cooked really soft as well. Be creative [: Congrats on the sleeve and keep rocking it!!!

I thought it was gross too but honestly its not as bad as it seems. I puree Soups with canned tuna or chicken. Or even meatball with marinara tastes like meat sauce.

      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.
