I will be one week tomorrow and I get to start blended/puréed food.

What's on your list of foods tomorrow ?

I was on Protein shakes for 2 weeks post-op. Just started my soft food/pureed period for a week. I eat scrambled eggs (my pouch wouldn't tolerate hard boiled) greek yogurt, Peanut Butter, cottage cheese, popsickles. I was told not to eat Soups. Especially cream soups because they are slider foods and will not stay in your tummy. I made what I call noodleless lasagna with some ricotta cheese, an egg, some parmigian cheese and some spaghetti sauce. It is really yummy. This site has some great ideas. http://www.froedtert.com/SpecialtyAreas/BariatricSurgeryProgram/Recipes/

Good luck

Personally I am starting with a scrambled egg and I think blended chicken salad for lunch. I found a recipe that replaces the mayo with Greek yogurt. And blended chili for dinner.

The other things on my list I could choice from we're low sugar yogurts, sugar free pudding, blended meats, tuna salad, egg salad, cream of wheat, rice, or oatmeal.

I am 2 weeks out tomorrow and will FINALLY (I repeat, FINALLY) be able to have some food...even if it is pureed. I was told to stay away from cream-based Soups, so I will be pureeing a lot of minestrone chicken noodle type soups as well as lentil Soup. I will also be having scrambled eggs tomorrow and very mashed egg salad with FF mayo. I also plan on having butternut squash mashed real good and mashed potatoes. I don't plan on blenderizing EVERYTHING, because that's nasty, but I plan on doing what I can, and then just chewing chewing chewing the soft foods to an almost pureed consistency. I tried greek yogurt, and I loved it before surgery, but it seems to sweet for me. I just want SALT!!

I was told the same thing about soups...but I eat them- they help me meet my liquid requirements. Its all about calories...and food quantities as you move out further from surgery. log your food-and be mindful of your quantities. I like to do Soup first then 4 oz of meat or fish. (Which stays)

      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.
