What can I eat in the puree phase?



Recommended Posts

I ate pretty much anything I could shove into my nutra bullet. Your nutritionist may have more concrete suggestions.

The nut will help calm your fears. I could have no meat of any kind. Any other baby food was ok. I loved the gerber multigrain Cereal as it reminded me of Cheerios! And I would make it using my Protein drink. HOWEVER! I wasn't eating an entire bowel of anything. Simply a few oz at a time. I have an awesome mini chopper that will mush up anything into baby food consistency. Loved roasted veggies. Also search the board for the baked riccota :)

Best wishes for you.

Can you eat actual baby food during this phase? Like the natural ones in the jar?

My nutritionist said it was okay, but I never did. I think she was talking abut the whole meat ones though. I'd have to double check to be certain.

yes with the exception of the meat. You can actually eat the baby food in jars. Baby food has less seasoning and won't have all the things used to flavor. I got some of the all natural or organic ones so that I could have it in my purse when out on the go or at work. When at home I made my own with roasting veggies and blending until it was the same texture as the jar foods or applesauce.

I am allowed quite a vatiery of things. I can make mince bolognaise (veg needs to be pureed though), i can have fish, Soups, cottage cheese, smoothies with fruit, yoghurt, mash vegetables or potato. My nutrionist gave me a massive booklet for each stage and we have a consultation before each phase. I am going to look at some baby food sachets too to add into the mix.

      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.
