Hi! I am new to the forum, and wanted to share. I started puree this week and tried the Beans with lowfat cheese, noodle Soup, smashed potatoes, carrots, and my stomach is not taking it. I had experience the dumping syndrom. (vomit) is it the same thing? I am going back to shakes for now, and am trying light yoplait yogurt and it seems to come down easily. I was thinking of trying other foods, but i am thinking I am hurting my self by vomitting. How much longer should i wait to try some food again. Thank you, Angie1409

Oh man, I tried mashed cauliflower in my pureed phase and thought someone was trying to pull my ribs out of my chest. I am at two months now, and I am not eating cauliflower for a long time. I did best with yogurt, eggs, and pureed Soups....everyone's tolerances are so different. A lot of people cannot go back to eggs, but they are my "go to".

Try and stay away from butter and cheese and sugar. All of these things are triggers for dumping syndrome (which is full evacuation of your bowels at the speed of light). They also can stimulate over-production of saliva, which can make your stomach feel gripey and lead to the slimes (over-production of white sputum) and vomit.

Keep things clean, unprocessed and light on the seasoning.

Tastes like badgers arse and will drive you to distraction at the end of the phase, but its better that than heaving.

For now give your stomach a rest.. Maybe two days of blandsville (plain yoghurt/protein shakes (if you can take the artificial sweetener) and very basic bland Soups.< /p>

From here, you can take a very small mouthful of something. Mull it around. Leave it. Let your stomach talk to you and see if you can take a wee bit more.

Trial and error. Try not to worry, you'll get there :)

I lived on refried Beans and chicken broth for several weeks but didn't really have any trouble. Have you tried egg drop Soup?

Full evacuation of your bowels at the speed of light. I will find a way to work that into a conversation if it kills me!

I just started the puree diet too. I bought a rottissere chicken and purrred a small amount of chicken with a little broth and some cooked butternut squash.( I added a little butter - sue me.) It tasted like a thanksgiving dinner! I picked up the Weight Loss Surgery recipes 'for dummies' book. Great recipes.

cheese doesn't bother me at all. I've eaten refried Beans and cheese several times.

Scrambled eggs, Greek yogurt and strained Soups worked well for me.

      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.
