Mushy Madness!



Recommended Posts

I read on the forums that after you've been on mushies for a bit, you find that you can eat a whole lot more than before. I am finding this to be very true. So the actual use of will power has to start now.

What are some of your favorite healthy mushy meals?

Right now my favorite is mashed sweet potato with 2 tablespoons of canned salmon. I put a bit of light blue cheese dressing with a can of salmon, and I've been eating it for days. I also put some whey Protein in with the sweet potato. It's wonderful!

Other favorites include

1-2 tablespoons of canned salmon in a drained, mixed fruit cup (yummy Breakfast today!)

instant mashed potatoes with whey protein and Quorn

pureed Beans with 1 or 2 Adele's chicken meatballs

This is so perfectly timed for me! I'm right there! I'm 2.5 weeks out and have been on pureed's for about a week.

I'm doing:

Blended refried Beans with a little cheese and hotsauce

Salmon and/or chicken blended up up with a little FF mayo and hot sauce

Not so Blended Soups

Yogurt

pudding

Cottage cheese

Avocado

I too feel like I can eat more and I'm feeling more head hunger. I can't say Ive had any real gut hunger yet.

Great list!

I keep forgetting to get cottage cheese. Yummy! And I love Avocados. I am going to get some of those too!

      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.
