Most white fish breaks down when you bake it. Get some cod and bake it with lemon juice and dill. Mash it up with a fork and you have one of the healthiest soft Proteins around.

Ingredients

2 (10 ounce) cans chicken breasts

1 (8 ounce) packages fat free cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup frank's redhot original cayenne pepper sauce

1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup fat free ranch dressing

1/4 cup fat-free Greek yogurt

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Place cream cheese in a medium bowl and stir until smooth. Mix in Frank's RedHot, mozzarella cheese, ranch dressing, and yogurt. Stir in chicken until thoroughly combined. Spoon mixture evenly into a deep 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish.

3. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until

mixture is heated through. Stir well and enjoy!

4. P.S. We love dipping carrot sticks and red bell pepper chunks into this dip, but we've also dunked baked tortilla chips into it and used it as a sandwich spread!

5. HG Alternative! To make this dish FAST, skip the oven altogether. Prepare dip according to the directions, but in a microwave-safe dish. Then microwave uncovered on high for 5 minutes (stopping and stirring halfway through cooking), or until hot.

The best for me was to puree whatever my family was having for supper. One of my favorites is chicken breast cooked in the crockpot with salsa. I chop it real good after cooking and I add in some fat free sour cream.

I like a few spoonfuls of refried Beans, salsa, a spoonful of Greek yogurt (or low fat sour cream). I heat the beans slightly and mix the rest together until smooth. Sometimes I add a little tostitos cheese dip. Even without chips, I feel like I'm having Mexican for dinner

On soft and puréed foods, my doctor allows their crunchy Protein supplements including Kay's. naturals protein pretzel sticks as long as chewed to mush. You could dip something like that with doctor approval. I had enough of them preop to never want them again.

      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.
