ultravas02 18 Posted January 20, 2013 Puree is disgusting. I basically ate fat free refried Beans during this stage. I also had grits (I live in the south). I sprinkled Unjury over both of them. I moved on to soft foods a week early, but I am NOT telling you to do it. I just could NOT do pureed.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No game 14,437 Posted January 20, 2013 When I was pre- surgery, I was like "there is no way I'm eating puréed meat, I will never be that hungry" Well I was! and I broke down and tried puréed chicken with gravy and... Well... It was good and filled me up !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Foor 655 Posted January 20, 2013 The things that got me through the puree stage the most were tuna salad, egg salad, and the canned chicken. I have also since found some good canned turkey and ham that are like that. Good Luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delta_girl 931 Posted January 20, 2013 I ate a lot of baby food. It needed salt, but wasn't undoable. I also had cream of wheat once, and canned tuna. I was not putting meat in a blender, just couldn't do it. I did eat cheese, edamame, boiled peanuts, tofu, pea Soup, low fat cottage cheese, hummus and other soft things.

msreaina 133 Posted January 20, 2013 My nut does not recommend puree because many people dont like it. She suggest that once at that stage chew food until its very fine... try that I think it would be a lot better than the actual puree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delta_girl 931 Posted January 20, 2013 Baby food is not easy. I found out very quickly that peas were ok, so was anything like fruit with oatmeal or fruit. Things like turkey with sweet potatoes or chicken with apples was odd tasting and "sweet" which really put me off. Sweet flavored meat was icky to me. So I would heat up some baby food peas or carrots with some salt and have that with low fat cottage cheese or with some canned tuna or pea Soup and could do it. I am SO glad that that phase of the diet plan didn't last very long. It was really over before I knew it. That might have even been harder than straight liquids.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No game 14,437 Posted January 20, 2013 Ohh see when I bought baby food it was straight chicken nothing else It was bad!! Puréeing your own chicken and gravy looks gross but it really tasted good warm and filling.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asherje 81 Posted January 20, 2013 meat loaf, mashed potatoes, corn & ketchup. A favorite dish of our house. That was actually tasty puréed together, but since I was a kid I always mixed my plate with this dish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SleeveGirl-TX 183 Posted January 20, 2013 I would puree up tuna or chicken or egg and add in a little greek yogurt, a little lemon and/or pickle juice and that would do. Take it easy. You have plenty of time to introduce foods. Experiment a little and just do your thing. You can do this. I avoided grits and really anything too carby, it didn't feel good in my stomach and was just empty calories. I still do, actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinky Green 260 Posted January 20, 2013 My nut does not recommend puree because many people dont like it. She suggest that once at that stage chew food until its very fine... try that I think it would be a lot better than the actual puree That was actually what I did. And I did it with fish. I had the low calorie Blackened Tilapia at Luby's Cafeteria. I was about 3-and-a-half weeks out. I could only eat about 1/3 of what they gave me and I chewed it until it was mush.
