I'm still pre op but was wondering the same thing. Fruits and veggies would be easy to figure out but I cannot even imagine eating puréed meat. I loathe the texture of pate' and so unless I could blend soft veggies with the meat I think I will pass. Think I will just stick with Liquid Protein. Oh actually maybe a creamy Soup like butternut squash blended with chicken? Can we eat that of is it too starchy?

I need some advice for this stage as well. I've heard that grits, oatmeal, scrambled eggs and pureed tuna/chicken were ok.

My nut says anything you are willing to put in a blender. Anything. I am just wondering what people have tried and liked.

I'm with you Italiancurves. Purred meat sounds totally disgusting to me. I'll probably skip that as well. But who knows after all the liquids it may be delish…nah.

Yeah, I am looking for ideas also. Today is my first day of puree. I just had one egg, scrambled, light cheese, a tsp of ketchup and some pepper. I ate about 3/4 and felt completely satisfied. :) Excited for tuna!

I do not have to purée, just soft foods tuna, crab, chicken salad and chew very well. I am glad, the purée stage does not sound appealing.

      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.
