Mushies stage, did anyone have baby food?



Recommended Posts

Early postOp when entering the mushies stage I had to do a several-day road trip.

My first away-from-home food was a poached egg at a restaurant and several hours later I tasted a few of the Gerber meat product jars.

Gastly yet I was quite hungry. They served me well enough for the short haul. Over all in a matter of a few weeks I ate parts of maybe 6-8 different things.

The nice part, was this was convenient and travelled well, it gave me a bite of something when I absoluted had to ahve a taste, and most important, it gave me the NEWLY acquired habit of being able to discard an unfinished food for whatever reason I might choose.

If memory serves, the paste jar treat I learned to savor in kindergarden was as delectible. Ah, youth.

Good luck.

I can understand why you think baby food may help but don't do it! During this stage I use this website http://www.advancedbariatricsurgery.com/forum/?f=10 and I add plain greek yogurt in everything. Remember Protein! Protein! Protein! Good Luck

Great link for early food ideas!!!

LadyDiva, thank you so much for the wonderful link. I'd like to bookmark the site on my phone, could I bother you to write out the entire url address? When I click on it, I am still Bariatric Pal's app and can't see the url.

Thank you, again!

      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.
