Pureed food...what did you eat?



Recommended Posts

I'm so bored with what I've been eating. Any sugestions? I've had egg, bean Soup, cream of wheat, Campbell's Tomato basil and bacon soup. I'm out of ideas. Help! And I don't like cottage cheese.< /p>

You can puree any food...have you tried some of the different canned Soups?

No I haven't. I'm afraid of getting too many carbs. I'm 2 and a half weeks post op and I've not lost anything in a week :-/ maybe I could do some vegetable Soup.< /p>

My Dr had me to start incorporating soft food. I haven't been counting carbs just Protein. 60-100 grams a day. I'm 54 pounds lost since the start of my liver shrink diet.

Turkey chili with Beans. My go to meal during puréed food. Loaded with Protein and Fiber and Vitamins (especially if you use V-8 juice as a base).

That's not a silly question!

Yes it sounds weird but you do purée them.

When I was pre op I was like "no way am I going to puréed meat" .... Well I did! And it was good :)

Carbs from healthy sources like veggies are a-ok. I couldn't stand most pureed foods so I ate instant mashed potatoes, yogurt, apple sauce etc. during that stage and I am down two clothing sizes five weeks out. I made my instant potatoes without butter and added powdered milk to the liquid milk to up the Protein. When I make mashed potatoes from scratch, I make them with cottage cheese, the hot potatoes melt the cheese into gooey cheesiness and I get more Protein that way too. We eat so little at this stage that 2-4 oz of potatoes or another carb won't derail you as long as you get your Water and protein in first. Stalls are normal, don't worry, you're doing great.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
