My book says that I can start having 'refined beans' for protein..I am on pureed stage, just over 2 weeks so I really need the Protein and would love some variety so I would really like to find out what the heck refined Beans are....

Refried Beans are a latin dish. It is cooked pinto, black or really any type of bean and they're mushed/smashed/pureed type consistancy. I love refried black beans the best. Enjoy!

Refried Beans I love...but my book says

ReFINEd - that's what's confusing me...maybe.its a typo?

What can I have as far as beans on pureed?

There is no such thing as "refined beans". I am absolutely sure you are looking at a typo meant to state "refried beans".

I am on pureed and am having refried Beans. I chew / move it around in my mouth with each bite so that it's a pureed consistency. I melt a bit of cheese and put a dollop of sour cream on top with chalula hot sauce. Has been my favorite meals so far.

Make sure if you get the canned variety that you get the fat free. Some refried Beans are prepared with LARD and you definitely don't want to be putting that in your body.

My post surgery sheet (yours may vary) says that you can blend a little bit of salsa in there too

You nailed it. That's exactly what I was going to say.

      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.
