Suggestions for the "Creamy" stage



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow I am happy to announce that I move to the creamy stage...any suggestions would be welcomed!

Looking forward to scrambled eggs with shredded cheese, cottage cheese and Greek yogurt but need other suggestions.

Really tired of the full-liquid stage:(

Post-op day 16 today. I've lost a total of 20lbs since I've started this journey.

Thanks to all!!

By "creamy" do you mean purée?

During purée I would do things like chicken and gravy, turkey meatloaf blended with watery mashed potatoes and gravy. Puréed chili,

Puréed tuna salad,

I'm also in the purée stage but am not cleared for meat, chicken, etc for a few more weeks.

I'm loving the mini lite baby bell cheese, oatmeal with milk and refried Beans. Today for lunch I had a 1/4- 1/2 cup of refried black Beans with a tbsp of sour cream. SO GOOD!!! I heated up a low-carb tortilla but liked the beans and sour cream so much I didn't eat it.

Weird thing... I used to love bananas and had one at Breakfast every day. I tried to eat one today and it was awful! I can only hope my taste buds start to hate pizza and chocolate too! Lol.

Good luck on your diet. I think there are some recipe threads on the post-op site if you enjoy cooking!

Thank you all. I'm not cleared for meat until the day after Christmas however my NUT said a day before wouldn't hurt as long as it was super moist..nothing dry.

Mashed potatoes sounds good with some gravy (not sure what the Protein level would be).

Thank you for the link; MUCH appreciated!

Yeah, my first go with an egg didn't go over to well either. My Dr's instructions were to only eat 1/4th and I'm glad I did because I thought for sure it was going to come right back up.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
