One of my favorite foods in the soft phase was refried Beans with a little cheese and sour cream. I did not do salsa at that point. I was eating tuna, but put it in the blender with some mayo and boiled egg to make it more moist and smooth. Yogurt with mashed banana was another thing I ate. I did have mashed potatoes at the point, but added unflavored chicken Soup flavored Protein powder to make up for the lack of Protein.< /p>

eggs scrambled with a dash of milk, a pat of butter and VERY wet. A little cheese, too, if you can stomach that.

Refried Beans with Water to thin them and a bit of cheese.< br />
Guacamole or hummus with a spoon. You don't need a chip!!

chicken or tuna salad mashed to almost a paste.

Lots of options and this phase WILL pass.

I mostly added chicken salad, Tilapia, and refried Beans w cheese. I measured out 2oz and took tiny bites, make sure it isn't the bites size of how fast you are eating it that is causing problems!

YES!! This. Use a baby spoon and only take half of that at one time. Allow 30 seconds or more between each "bite". I walked a loop around my downstairs after every bite to force a burp. Slow, small, measured amounts. Key.

      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.
