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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
