My dr gave me the go ahead for the puréed stage. Please please please tell me that there's better things than baby food to eat! That's all the dr brought up. I could barely feed it to my child, much less feed it to myself. Maybe I'll just stay on the Protein shakes.....

Omg there's so much you can have on this stage. I'm still on my puréed. I eat tuna w a lil mayo. I put it in my mini food processor to make it extra creamy. Delicious. I do the same with chicken. You can have fat free refried Beans with some shredded cheese. Delicious. Greek yogurt. Cottage cheese. Pretty much anything you would be willing to purée.

There's something just unnatural about pureed foods. I'm sorry, but pureed anything doesn't taste "right." I pretty much stuck with a liquid diet thru this stage because I couldn't find anything pureed that was worth eating. Can I interest you in a very slightly used blender???? :rolleyes:

I have been on pureed food since last Wednesday. I grilled a chicken breast then put it in my blender with some chicken stock. It tasted good. I have also pureed a hamburger in beef stock. Also a stuffed bell pepper with Tomato sauce. So far so good. Two more days and then I am on soft foods. I can also eat scrambled eggs. only 1 egg at a time.

Well, I'll tell you what NOT to do. Don't puree a bol from Chipotle because it makes sense that it would taste the same as if you were chewing it up, that's for damn sure. :)

I grossly blanket pureed foods as (anything you could suck up a straw), just as I grossly blanket mushies as (anything your mouth can turn to mush without chewing)... or anything the weight of my fork can condense (not flatten).

I only had 1 day of purees, IIRC. I ate mostly hummus. I wasn't even eating 1 tbl, so who cares.

I couldn't either till I had ricotta mixed with baby food banana pear and oats..it was good. I also made a small eggwhite omelet with lactose cheese and my new thing is mashed potatoes with pureed chicken salad and gravy(to hide the fact that the chicken salad is pureed)

I began purée today and started with tuna. I did 2 ounces and stopped. Didn't feel any discomfort which freaks me out!!!! Am I not eating enough?? I did a 1.5 ounce can and looks like it will last 3 days. How do i calculate those 2 ounces I had? Thanks!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
