Soft Cheese On Pureed?



Recommended Posts

Not cottage or ricotta, but things like BabyBells, Laughing cow wedges, Mozzarella, Provolone? Can I just cut off chunk of cheese and take a bite? I am totally a cheese freak....been missing it for weeks and had some melted monterry jack on my refried Beans but it just melted right in, not like cheese by itself.

If I can have cheese.....aaahhhh, I will be in heaven!

I eat the Baby Bell light wedges (35 calories) and Sargento reduced fat cheeses (string cheese (50 calories), etc).

I was allowed to at this stage and it was a life saver! It felt like one of the few "normal" things I could eat.

I just ate a Laughing Cow cheese wedge last night and it was delicious! I am a cheese freak, and I have been going through withdrawal, lol. I am also on the pureed stage.

Are you still in the pureed stage or have you graduated to regular foods? I am still so unsure of what is and isn't safe in the pureed stage and I would love to have an egg that isn't blended into oblivion.

I have moved on to soft foods and as of 9/11 I can eat regular foods. So far ive tolerated everything okay, but i do take my time and try to chew as much as i can. I would suggest you contact your doctor or nutritionist if you aren't sure. Mine gave me a booklet that is like my bible with my schedule of eating on it. Best of luck to you.

      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.
