Glad your infection has cleared up! I was on liquids for three weeks too. Now I'm on puréed for three weeks. I made a puréed chicken salad that was pretty good--still eating lots of Soups though. I can't wait till I can eat some shrimp with sautéed veggies!

Has anybody had trouble with crystal light everytime I try it it hurts my pouch everytime its so weird referring to my stomach as a pouch

It doesn't hurt me or anything but I'm sick to death of it. I've started drinking just plain Water now.

I bought a roasted chicken and pulled some of the meat off that and tossed it in my mini cuisinart. I puréed it with spoon of mayo, a spoon of Greek yogurt, a tablespoon of dill pickle and a whole lot of dried dill weed. Salt and pepper. My pouch tolerated it really well.
