Pizza/Mac N Cheese

[Astaze75 16]

I am 2 1/2 weeks post op. I am not even on Purée yet. But I am dying for some macaroni and cheese and pizza. Is there light at the end of the tunnel? Will I ever be able to have at least one bite of these?

Funny you should post this today. I just passed my 4 month mark over the weekend & I just had my first mac & cheese last night. I only had about 1/4 or maybe 1/3 of a cup, but I enjoyed it & didn't mind leaving the rest on the plate. I'm not a pizza person, so who knows when I'll try that. Good luck to you! I was on liquids for a full month before purees. I know it's hard, but you can get through it!

I'm 7 weeks out and I've had a couple of bites of homemade mac n cheese and have had a couple of bites of pizza…not a lot, but just a taste

Did the couple bites/taste satisfy your needs?

[ReDbEaN 654]

Yes, they did…it takes so little to fill us up now, so it satisfied me at that point.

Once u hit puree you can take the mac n cheese flavor packet & incorporate i to something else that you can eat- like cream of wheat or mashed thinned potatoes?

We frequenly buy mac n cheese & throw out the Pasta. We use the flavor pack in chicken dishes, seasoning for veggies & more.

Experiment you'd be suprised how the flavor is what u craved.

allons-y
