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?

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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
