lilricanliz 9 Posted January 9, 2013 So I've been so excited to move on puréed foods but having trouble keeping anything down. First off I know that the stuff I've been eating wasn't 100% all that healthy, but I was trying to introduce familiar foods into my diet. There were two instances where I couldn't keep what I ate down. Is there anyone out there who had this problem. I thought the stuff I was eating was too greasy. I know I don't have a leak because there is no fever. I've tried eggs with cheese and ham. Didn't go well and Mac and cheese w/ sausage. Is there anyone who struggled with purée? What can I try without having to keep eating full liquids because I'm tired of Soup.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Traci J. 207 Posted January 9, 2013 Try it without the cheese, maybe you're lactose intolerant since the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwhite692 10 Posted January 9, 2013 Have you tried baked chicken, turkey, or fish? 1 Goodnurseg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something not so heavy or greasy I'm sure would set better for you. Best wishes!! 1 Goodnurseg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReduceReuseRecycle-Me! 119 Posted January 9, 2013 Make sure the pureed food is not to dry. Add extra liquid.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blewy99 9 Posted January 9, 2013 I'm on week two of puree and doing good. I have mostly had chicken breast (baked or boiled) and cottage cheese. I incorporated some baked Beans and refried bean in after a week. This week have had tilapia also. All has done good. I try to eat only things that are good sources of protien. I have not tried anything spicy or greasy basically cause I couldn't tolerate them prior to surgery, so don't want to take chances now. As well, I still have a protien shake or two during the day. Am able to get in 60+ on Protein easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lilricanliz 9 Posted January 9, 2013 I have baby food as a back up but I've been really trying to eat more "adult" foods than just baby foods. Thanks for the suggestions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
