Poorehouse 18 Posted October 29, 2013 What pureed food is safe to try after surgery? I did three days clears and now I'm on liquid/pureed food but I'm nervous to try puréed so soon after surgery Can y'all tell me what works for you and how soon after surgery did you try it? I am a terrible eater - which is why I had to get the sleeve in first place. I hate eggs, oatmeal and the only yogurt I like is frozen LOL Any help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joatsaint 2,814 Posted October 29, 2013 I only had a couple of purees - cream of mushroom Soup, egg salad, and chicken salad. I was eating so little that I really never counted it as a puree stage. It was well past the 4th week and into my "full foods" phase before I was able to eat more than 3/4 can of soup a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kathywithakay 3 Posted October 29, 2013 I love pureed lo fat cottage cheese with a scoop of vanilla Protein Powder. It sort of tastes like cheese cake:) My other favorite is black Beans, 1 scoop of Unjury chicken Soup Protein powder, 1/2 cup Water and baked chicken breast pureed in the Vitamix. Then top with a bit of Greek Organic Yogurt. I have just begun the pureed stage and will be doing it for a month so I would also love to hear what others are eating through this phase. 1 Poorehouse reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
