Quwstions On Puree Food

[phillygirl8133 74]

I spoke with her and my doctors office. I'm off till Thursday then I'll go back light duty. I'm so relieved. I won't be able to have patient contact' date=' and I miss my guys like crazy... But if I can't handle it, at least I won't be leaving my patients and staff high and dry.

I have been taking my B12 and Multivitamin. I'm supposed to take the Calcium supplement twice daily but I keep forgetting. I guess I'll have to set an alarm on my phone to remind me.

I'll check out the Vitamin Water zero. Sounds good. I bought New whey Protein shots at Wal-Mart yesterday. 42 grams per shot. I figure if I have a low Protein day I'll sip on that for a while to help make up the difference.

On the purée food front... I have been working my way through a chicken salad mush I made. chicken, low fat mayo, relish. I've been enjoying it. I am thinking today I'll make refried black Beans. [/quote']

That's great a few more days off I tried the chicken salad girl it did not go right for me nor did the egg or egg salad lol I'm going tomorrow to get my b12 shot today I'm going to try poly sting cheese see if that will agree it says I can have it

I am doing muscle milk it taste so good it 20g of protein and then for lunch I'll do alborcore tuna in the package that has 20 g of protein so I also bought Wendy's chili and cheese that has 28 g of protein in 1/2 cup yummy

Anyone hungry after eating just the 1/4 cup of food?

I'm having a really hard time sticking to it.

Are you eating super slow? Chewing it up until its mush? This helped me a lot. I've always been a fast eater and then end up stuffed because I never let my body tell me it was full. After slowing down, I get full after the 1/4 cup!

So I tried the Thomas multi grain and yea it got stuck and up it came note to self don't eat those lol trial and error this is

Did you toast it?

No staws yet for me. I tried drinking out of a sports Water bottle and the extra air hurt my tummy. Maybe later. I do drink out of Water bottles for crystal light and I haven't had the issue with colored lips.

I thought about this earlier. I ate, put the spoon down between bites, chew chew chew!!!, pause between bites. I ended up bored with my food and decided I was full. It's been about 2 hours and I'm still not hungry. HTH!!!

I get bored waiting to take a bite so as soon as its cold I'm done

I definitely understand how you feel! My goal right now with the nutritionist is to be under 200 lbs. I was told it would be around October when I got to that point. Seemed a little far off for the rate I'm losing. I was told that I should lose about 10 lbs/month. I don't know when the rapid loss slows down though. Just gotta keep going!
