Mushies?!



Recommended Posts

Doc gave me the go to start my phase 3 mushies! I'm 2 week post op. Just wondering if any of you have any good recipes or good ideas for meals? I work on the weekdays so something I can make at home and bring to work! THANKS(:

My advice to you is keep it simple and do not start meal planning at two weeks. Focus on shakes, adding unflavored Protein powder to Soups, yogurt, SF Jello, or anything else on your list of foods. There is enough to deal with going back to work so keep a light load for yourself. I dearly loved the convenience of refried Beans with a little wedge of Laughing Cow white Cheddar cheese and it was tasty and filling. Could that be easier? I am still 7 weeks post op and my husband 5 weeks post op, and loving the simplicity of life. I made tuna salad yesterday for a treat, and really enjoyed it. 1/2 to 1 boiled egg is delicious and easy. 1scrambled egg in the morning is quick and easy! Relax! I made crockpot chicken 3 weeks out. It was so good I ate too fast and choked on a small piece of chicken, horrible pain, and that is when I decided to slow down and not get carried away with recipes and going back to that normal of cooking and eating. Best of luck!

Yes, I bought mine online at unjury.com too. They also have Unjury chicken Soup powder. Just add Water. They have a mac and cheese, but I did not try it.

      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.
