Purees....



Recommended Posts

So I started my 3rd Week (Purees) yesterday and I am wondering what everyone else is eating and how many times a day are you eating. Also, how many Protein Drinks a day?

I have been enjoying my homemade Soup broths that I kind of don't want to let go of having soup. But, I also noticed I am starting to get hungry.

Can I get some input please.

Have you gotten to the point where you feel full? I haven't yet but, then again I have been mostly having broth.

I think I am so paranoid of stretching my stomach.

I eat hummus, applesauce, and baby food (check the sugars though).

I ate a ton of pureed turkey chili (no beans), cottage cheese (with a small scoup of polander sugar free blackberry spread - good fiber), shake or two a day, egg beaters with some fresh shredded parm cheese while cooking.

I wanted tuna and chicken salad, by my doc insisted it was like "apple sauce" and would fall thru the spoon, I just wasnt able to get it to that consistancy and then still have the stomach to eat it.

Yesterday I made refried Beans with some ff cheese and also made tuna (pureed) to bring into work today. So I had my refried beans and very little of tuna just to try it and five minutes later I got this horrible lower back pain. I dont know if it was gas or what it was but it didnt go away for about two hours. Now I am scared to eat. I have been having baby food and I was fine. Has this happened to anyone?

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
