Bunnydee 40 Posted February 13, 2013 Does anyone know if I am still on mushy foods for the next 2 weeks, would it be ok to blend up Pasta Soup? Like fideo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera 644 Posted February 13, 2013 I think most folks are on liquids for 3 weeks - then they are advanced to soft squishy foods. If you are on mushy food already - that is very fast progression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joatsaint 2,814 Posted February 13, 2013 I was on Clear Liquids for the 1st week, full liquids 2nd week, and puree the 3rd. I guess the food stages and speed through each one is different per doctor. When I was in the mushy stage, they said anything I could blend up with no chunks was okay. But to be safe, if I were you, I'd call the doctor or nutritionist just to be sure.

No game 14,437 Posted February 13, 2013 Best to ask your nutritionist or doctor.. I have not had Pasta yet (3 months out) But most people here say pasta is really hard to digest after the sleeve in the early stages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shamrockjulie 7 Posted February 14, 2013 I have been surviving on Shiratki tofu noodles since my surgery in Oct (down 80 lbs) They are filling and only have 3 carbs 20 calories per serving (which I can only eat 1/2 servings at most. It tames my Pasta craving Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doreen70 268 Posted February 14, 2013 Do they taste like Pasta? Is the texture similar? I read about those when my husband wanted to try the paleo diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shamrockjulie 7 Posted February 14, 2013 They taste like Pasta. I make a low fat phad Thai and a mock Alfredo with chicken & broccoli . They are mushier than I would've ever ate pasta and they require a few steps that you must do to get rid of the smell. You have to rinse in gold Water for 5 min then dry with paper towel, then dry roast in non stick pan (some people use a microwave for this step) then add into what you are making. It's less time than waiting for water to boil but I won't lie the 1st time I smelled them out of the bag was nasty. Now I turn my head while I rinse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
