One Month Post Op. Any Suggestions On Food Ideas

[Shaniceh01 28]

This weekend I'll be a month post op, I'm taking any suggestions because I'm a very picky eater there are a lot of things I'm hating about this purée stage. How soon does everyone start soft foods such as fish etc. I'm three weeks and four days out and what should I be eating? Please help

What kind of potatoes...mashed? I've only been having Protein Shakes, mash potatoes and green Beans and I'm so tired of it, and the thought of purée makes me sick. I tried baked fish today and it was great no problems even tho I got full so fast. Thanks for your input really appreciated

Puree sounds gross but I have been practicing to see how I like things. I find that most non meat Soups (especially bean soups) blend really well. My doc's stages are different, after I get out of hospital I start on all blended/applesauce consistency foods for 5 weeks. SO soups are good, I make boiled cauliflower then blend it with some broth and cheese and add non flavored Protein to that... I have a lobster bisque Soup for after surgery and if i like it then I might get bold blending other things. Maybe store bought creamed soups? Check out some bean soups, good protein. Good luck!!

Yes I mashed them up very good and chew chew chew...I've had Soup a couple of times also, I went from full liquids to mushies/purée and now it's time for soft foods, I just don't wanna stretch my sleeve; but it really work because I cannot eat nearly as much as I use to...love my sleeve ❤
