Rachgin13 1 Posted November 20, 2012 Hi everyone!! Love this app! I was sleeved on 11/7 so almost two weeks out. I'm on the puréed diet and was curious about Protein. The thought of puréed meat sounds so unappealing. Did you all mainly get your protein from yogurt at this point or did you find other ways? And if so, do you mind sharing these tips with this newbie? Thanks for any help!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xavtay2 85 Posted November 20, 2012 Congrats and during the puréed stage I got most of my Protein from shakes. I am 9 weeks out and I still get the majority of my protein from the shakes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ozeedonkee 145 Posted November 20, 2012 I found some tinned salmon with cracked pepper, pureed it and mixed in a tiny little bit of mayo and milk. That worked ok. Today I did the same but added part of a (mashed) soft boiled egg. I haven't checked out the recipes section yet, but I will soon so that I don't get bored.

carstanger 346 Posted November 20, 2012 I had my sleeve on the 12th and can only have full Protein liquids for 3 weeks. Eating protein Soups, add protein cocoa to my Decaf coffee, and tried fat free, sugar free puddings with protein added to it. Have had some problem with the thickness of the pudding, or I ate it too fast. Otherwise, one week out and doing well!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGamer 406 Posted November 20, 2012 If you can tolerate it, don't forget to use unflavored Protein Powder. I swear I lived off hot cocoa with nectar unflavored powder for my first two weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caldrich001 11 Posted November 20, 2012 I lived on yogurt and scrambled eggs. Also, canned tuna crumbled very fine with mayo. There was no way I could stomach pureed meat. Bleck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolanz 1,484 Posted November 20, 2012 I found a milk that has 12 grams of Protein ( HEB store brand) and I eat greek yogurt with only one shake a day. pureed meat or Beans for lunch and dinner. I get about 60-70 grams of protein a day. I pureed chicken with green enchilada sauce last night. It was really good! I've only tried chicken so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
