I have eaten a lot of refried Beans while on pureed. I top it with shredded cheese and a little sour cream.

LOL - my pureed stage is 6 weeks... almost at the end of it and will start soft food next week. The refried Beans have been a staple and tuna turned out to work well for me too. Frankly, mozzarella string cheese sticks have been another staple. The cheese sticks are 8g of Protein each and I can do two in one sitting. I love cheese! Also, I do hummus - my Dr allows baked crackers to use to eat the pureed food like my tuna and hummus. I use Pepperidge Farms Baked Natural wheat crackers, about 5 or 6 and they chew down very nicely. Tried to do Peanut Butter but that is the one food that doesn't work.

You can also put a teaspoon of salsa on your refried Beans with shredded cheese!! It was a staple for me for sure!! Mozzarella cheese sticks...are great! You can do oatmeal too. The Quaker Weight Control meets the carb/sugar restrictions we have. Grits, cream of wheat are okay too. The crackers with hummus, PB...I was told I could have half of a whole wheat english muffin or sandwich flat toasted with 1 oz light cream cheese, PB or hummus...or even a little spaghetti sauce with shredded cheese on top and make a little pizza!! You have to make sure you chew it really good until its mush. I did great with those!

Ha!! One thing is make sure you toast your english muffins or bread...if you don't, it can get stuck!! Also...the sandwich flats come in mini's and I was told you can have the whole mini so you can make a little sandwich!!

For the puréed stage, I puréed everything, lol. Soup, chili, veggies, meatloaf, meat sauce (for spaghetti). If you can eat it, you can purée it.

Your body does not get back to "normal" overnight. It takes 6-8 weeks or more for your body to fully recuperate. I'm just over a month out and I still get tired easily. Today I cleaned both bathrooms which are not large but I had to take breaks in between. Same thing yesterday when I cleaned out the kitchen cabinets and drawers. I was BEAT! Shopping trips are even worse for me. I get so exhausted just getting a few things. It'll get better as time goes on. While I was out of work, I couldn't go a day without a nap. Now I'm past that point and still working on pushing through each day. Take breaks...it'll all get better! Our bodies are going through some major changes!

My Nut wants me to aim for 500, but I don't always reach that. I was 285 at surgery and am down to 267. How many weeks out are you? I'm on week four.
