Mushies Food Ideas For People That Dont Eat Beef, Pork Or Shellfish?



Recommended Posts

Just some ideas that are posted in my post surgery guide. Hope it helps. Good Luck!

LOW CARB ‐ LOW FAT‐ LOW SUGAR ‐ HIGH PROTEIN!

• Soft foods are comprised of: things that are easily chewed and will mush up

in your mouth easily. For example:

• Scrambled or soft cooked eggs

• Cottage cheese

• Cottage cheese w/pureed fruit ( containers of 4 oz that you can mix into the

cottage cheese)

• Refried Beans

tuna, salmon, chicken, or egg salad mixed well with low‐fat mayo

chicken leg or thigh meat

• Soft cooked veggies

• mac n cheese

• Whole wheat grains‐ pasta/rice

meats that are cooked to really soft consistency‐ crock pot, pressure cooker

• soft cooked or stewed fruits

oatmeal, cream of wheat, grits

• moist meatloaf, turkey loaf

Soups that have easy to chew veggies n meats

Be careful to really puree your food at first, and make sure it's moist. tuna was rough on me when I pureed it in the magic bullet. I pulled out the food processor after that.

One of the moistest things and best thing I had was rotisserie chicken. It blended better than canned chicken or home made chicken and it was a lot more moist. I know that there are others like me that had a rough time with food. Everything seemed and sometimes does seem to get stuck from the esophagus into stomach mark. I still can only get about 2 ounces of anything in at a time and I'm 8 weeks. Sometimes I still puree food because it definitely goes in easier, with less pain afterwards.

Best of luck to you.

      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.

      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.
