From my book:

eggs

Egg substitutes

Canned Water packed tuna (mixed w/ low fat mayo if desired)

Canned salmon

pureed Beans

pureed soupa

Pureed chicken, beef, turkey, pork

Milk (1% or lowfat)

Light yogurt

greek yogurt

Low-fat, small curd cottage cheese

Almond milk

Rice milk

Light soy milk

Hot cereals, all allowed, Quaker Weight Control oatmeal is Higher in Protein & Fiber

Cereals - plain flakes w/o nuts or dried fruit

pureed canned fruit, no sugar added, packed in Water

100% juice diluted w/ water

Unsweetened applesauce

Pureed vegetables

Whipped potatoes

Vegetable juice

sugar free gelatin/popsicles

Sugar free/low fat pudding

Glad the second go round with the eggs was better for you!

I think so as long as you get it mushy. I'm not really a cold Cereal person. I've had grits and I've have oatmeal.< /p>

I did make up some ricotta like I was going to stuff shells with Tomato sauce, and Italian seasoning then baked it with a tiny bit of shredded cheese. It was really good and I didnt miss the shells at all.

Is anyone adding unflavored Protein powder to their eggs? If so, how are y'all doing it?

I add greek yogurt and a bit of shredded cheese. I stir it all with a whisk and then cook over low heat or in the microwave, stirring frequently. If you cook in the microwave you have to undercook and allow for carry over cooking.

I also started puree foods today! I did 1/4C of refried Beans with 1 TBS cheddar cheese. I pureed it then heated it up in the microwave and topped it with 1 TSP Greek yogurt. Can I just say it was heavenly? It was so yummy!

Tomorrow I'm going to poach an egg for Breakfast and have tuna salad pureed for lunch! I'm so excited lol

I was so excited when I finally made it to this phase! One of my favorite, go to meals during that phase and one that I actually still use is a ricotta bake. Soooo yummy and so simple!

I made it a head of time so I had some always ready to just pop into the microwave to reheat. I think I might have cut the portions in half too.

Lots of luck!

I am in the pureed stage for about a week and finding it difficult. Pureed food was making me ill to look at it and the texture was gross. I went off puree tonight and cut up chicken and steamed broccoli into miniscule pieces. I listened to my stomach and stopped eating when I felt full. I didnt have any problems with it feeling stuck or anything. I worry that I won't lose because I'm moving ahead in the process. I'm still making smart food choices but dont understand why I have to puree if my body accepts whole foods. Comments?

See how it goes. As long as you don't get sick it's between you and your doctor.

Thanks everyone for those yummy ideas! Can't wait for next week to try some out! Has anyone used unflavored Protein powder mixed in with purées? I saw a brand Unjury makes a kind I guess you can add. Any thoughts on that?

I did Prosource no carb unflavored and orange flavored. I mixed them in herbal teas or in my Soups.< /p>

      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.
