Recommended Posts

Today is my first day on soft foods! (Sleeved 7.31.13, Day 8) I am having a boiled egg mashed up with a little Dijon mustard and tiniest dash of salt! I feel like I am having a steak dinner! Yummo! A few weeks of near (think liquids) will do that to ya!

What was your first soft food...how did it go??!

I had greek yogurt for my first puree food (3 weeks out) and a half a turkey sausage link for my first soft food. Both were great but I couldn't eat very much of the sausage! I thought I was going to eat the whole link (this is one of those small frozen Breakfast links, not a big link) but I could only manage half. It was delicious and very satisfying though.

I had a poached egg for one of the first things I had on puree and it was so delicious with just a little bit of salt and pepper.

Is purée what you ate after full liquids? That's where I am? I can't wait for a sausage link! But I don't think I am there yet! Ill be having refried Beans later, canned carrots, sf pudding, all this yumminess!!! I can seriously hardly wait!!! A poached egg is a great idea!

Oh it was so good! Take your time with it, and don't rush to finish it! Even as good as I've been doing, it still became difficult at the end!

Yes, puree was after full liquids for me, but some surgeons skip puree stage. For puree I could eat the types of food listed above but they had to be pureed to the consistency of applesauce. Exceptions: refried Beans, cottage cheese, yogurt, and poached or scrambled eggs could be eaten without being pureed.< /p>

Soft foods came next, that's what I'm on now. Soft foods for my program is high Protein foods (meat, fish, dairy, soy, beans, lentils), cooked non-starchy veggies, and soft fruits -- as long as I can cut them with a fork. So I could have ground beef but not a steak, for example. And even though I could cut a potato with a fork, I can't have it because it is a starchy veggie. My program is very strict and very detailed!

I ate Popeye's mashed Potatoes & Gravy and Red Beans (no rice) for like 2 whole weeks. I would swing by Popeyes almost every other day & get a large of both.

I missed Popeye's as well! :lol:

When I finally got to full foods, I got the smallest box of spicy chicken strips. I could only eat one, but it was fantastic!

I really want one if dem buttery biscuits! I'd be happy if I could just lick it! LOL. But.....If I get a craving for something bad I tell myself "after you eat something with Protein first" & then I don't have anymore room to even lick a dang biscuit. Ha! That's my theory & I'm sticken with it. :0p

Isn't it nice to get a taste of the real world? Did it go down ok? I hope so!!!

I've been eating eggs, Beans, turkey, chicken, carrots, green Beans, yogurt, some soft fruit, but the only thing I can finish at this point is the egg or yogurt. Let me know how you do when you start eating more...it all tastes very good, but I'm stressed over not eating the right amounts!

I know EXACTLY what you mean. My fridge can't hold anything else!!! The easiest thing for me, has been the Beans and yogurt...but the turkey I got was from dickeys. It is so soft I think a person could eat it without chewing! ;) and then my my husband and mom were making something w rotisserie chicken, same thing, super soft, very easy to eat. But I still chewed like crazy.

I'm going to eat *that* again! Lol! It was very good, in fact, I've had it several times.

      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.
