kim2002 140 Posted August 21, 2013 So my first day on puréed and I've had some refried Beans,wonderful!!! Tonight for supper I chose to eat some Greek yogurt, my NUT said today I prob wouldn't be able to eat the 5oz container, I've been eating on it slowly and I've eaten the 5oz within an hour, slowly and one small bitty bite at a time!! If I'm able to eat the 5oz like that I won't stretch or hurt anything will I? Cause I'm thinking that my stomach is emptying before I'm putting in the next tiny bite! I'm not having any pain with it, and I've not had a drop of anything to drink!!! I know people get tired of the same type questions, sorry just trying to reassure myself Kim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RJ'S/beginning 5,358 Posted August 21, 2013 Your meal should last up to 20 -30 min. tops...anything more then that.....it was recommended by my team to push the food away if you are not done in that time.....I find it to be a good timing element for the sleeve. Then I wait for the next meal to eat again....10 months out I can eat up to a cup of food in a sitting...depending on the type of day I am having..If my stomach is funky..I eat way less... 1 No game reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kim2002 140 Posted August 21, 2013 Refried Beans along with a lot of other great things are on my approved list from the nutritionist!! Greek yogurt is on that list also, just no fruit on the bottom kind, it has to be smooth!!! Puréed stage also has LOTS of "pasty" consistency foods!!!
