Not sure I understand the pureed diet.



Recommended Posts

Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes. Get yourself a mini chopper and puree your food in it. I liked scrambled egg, cottage cheese, canned meats chicken/turkey/ham or even corned beef. Chili would be good too.

I don't really know, but to tell you the truth, I didn't bring myself to puree anything. I ate soft stuff and I chewed it twenty or more times. I had all those things except the shaved ham. I also had Campbell's chicken Noodle Soup. My doctor said I could have it, but expected me to blenderize it and I was not about to. Just chewed it to mush before I swallowed it. I made my mouth the blender. It was fine.

I was never on a puréed diet, just soft foods. It's amazing how different doctors are.

My stage 3 was "puréed or mushy". So I stuck with mushy. Cottage cheese was mushy, so I didn't have to do anything else to it. I did food process chicken, and other meats. It made it more like the texture in a chicken salad or pulled pork. I then took small bites and chewed a lot. I am now 6 weeks out and eating reg foods.

I bought the bullet blender. Thing is awesome. I am in the puréed stage as well. I cook normal for the family then take some and put it through the bullet blender. Taco meat, Beans and salsa, AWESOME. slow cooker meat, carrots and a small potatoe. Both me and the baby ate that with smiles. Made home made low fat pot pie for the family so I took the veggies, meat and low fat gravy and blended. Was really good over a table spoon if mashed potatoes. I have also been roasting cauliflower and blending that with minced garlic, butter and a little broth. Love it!! My kids think that is what mashed potatoes are.

Do what the dr. Says and follow the diet. Not worth any chances. Chewing is not puréed. If it were they would tell you to do that. You just had most of your stomach removed. Don't be lazy with the healing diet.

I ate a lot of canned tuna or chicken with low fat mayo, put through the blender. Also cottage cheese blended with a little vanilla extract, cinnamon and Equal.

Not sure why you'd need to blend cottage cheese (small curd). Cottage cheese was on my phase II diet and all I had to do was mash it a bit with my fork. While I still do that, I do it less and less.

      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.
