i never thought pureed food would be so good



Recommended Posts

Three week post-op appointment today. Only lost 5lbs in the last two weeks, but hey! That's 5lbs gone forever! Bye bye! :) Started pureed stage today, I'm just so happy I can eat something other than pudding/yogurt/creamy soup! Does anyone have any good suggestions for this stage? I already had tuna fish today, just waiting to see what I can conjure up for dinner.< /p>

I did things like refried Beans and a bit of cheese, also turkey chili is good. Quick meal turkey meatball or loaf with some watery gravy and watery instant mashed potatoes.

Same with chicken and gravy.

I would cook a few scrambled eggs and then pick out some lowfat cheese and spice it up with greek seasoning. pureed, I thought it was delicious!!

refried Beans sounds soooo good. i have leftover meatloaf from dinner yesterday, but i'm not sure if i want to venture into it because it's beef and i was pretty sure it was only like 80% lean. my mom made it and she's a skinny mini, sooo.. lol

i'm actually not allowed to have scrambled eggs yet? on my diet progression it says "soft cooked or poached egg (NOT SCRAMBLED), which i'm really curious as why i can't have scrambled. BUT I'M DYING FOR EGGS! LOL

Refried Beans with cheese was my go-to, as well as cottage cheese, hummus, advocado, red and white beans (cooked down), and lots of cheese!! I love cheese!

To my knowledge, I have never had lamb shank or minted gravy...and poor you...CHEESE is the best food ever! AND it's full of protein!

I was a cheese addict before the surgery. Now.. not so much. Makes me acidy... and I can't be doing with the acid.. Guess I should be grateful that my cheese consumption is now nil...

My NUT said that scrambled eggs are soft cooked as long as you add a bit of milk to them before cooking.

Hey Chelsi! You and I share a surgeon! I was sleeved on 10/4 and have my next appointment this Thursday. I cannot wait for them to tell me that it's time to puree!

When looking at all the information regarding the puree diet, I asked about the no scrambled thing. The nutritionist explained that scrambled eggs used to be on the list but a lot of patients were stating that they were not feeling too hot after having them, so they simply removed them from the list. Just FYI :)

      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.
