i bought recipes for Weight Loss Surgery Success. There are tons of shakes and smoothies, smooth foods and soft food ideas. You can really puree everything.

I liked the following: canned chicken puréed with seedless mustard, canned tuna puréed with Trader Joes Red Thai Curry Sauce, and Hormel's chili (the kind with no beans) puréed on its own. If you ever need a break from pureeing, I recommend Beechnut baby food over Gerber. Beechnut uses broth and no Water, so I think it tastes a little better.

You can puree anything, for quick meals try thr hormel compleat meals they pure up easily. Refried Beans with ricotta cheese and salsa is good, turkey meatballs with ricotta cheese and a little ketchup or BBQ Sauce or marinara. you couls also use alfredo sauce. chicken with alfredo, turkey with gravy, chicken or eggs or tuna with low fat mayo just about anything.

I invested in one of those magic/ninja bullet things it's strong enough to purses carrots. I try combos and a little crysyal light to add liquid and sweetness. Also found individually frozen blueberry,mango,pineapple and strawberries at hanaford. I add Protein Powder to fruit smoothie once a day

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
