I'm nearly 3 weeks post op and I'm on 700-800 calories a day. I'm not really focusing on the calorie intake at the moment but rather focusing on getting enough Protein in and digesting the foods.

My puree stage includes soft foods. I was told but my NUT ( and it is written down) that I can have anything including meat that is tender, moist, and soft. I will admit that I had to break up the lamb meat into the sauce and let it sit for 5 minutes so that it could be a bit more moist

All of these are acceptable and listed as options from my NUT's 50 page after surgery guidelines. I am about 4 weeks out and it sat really well too. No problems with pressure, gas, or pain. I just ate my meals over 45 minutes like I was told and I feel satisfied and full every time.
