I need advice....I get to start pureed foods this Friday...dun dun dun! So excited to taste something different.

I went on a shopping spree.....never been so excited to be at a grocery store. I got some meat, and some eggs, and Beans.

Doc told me to start with just 1 puree meal on day 1 to see how it goes. So whats easiest folks out of these items for my 1st meal :

pureed potato & beef in cream of mushroom

Pureed Shrimp with a smidge of cilantro and lime

Pureed Salmon with crab stuffing

Pureed chicken with cooked spinach and a smidge of alfredo

Pureed deviled egg

Pureed refried Beans with a smidge of enchikada sauce and cheese

Pureed Turkey Chili

Pureed italian pork with marinara and parmesean

Pureed beef and broccoli (separate purees)

Pureed Salmon with spinach and cream cheese

I had a different puree phase in that my doctor restricted meat for 35 days. However with that being said, the first time I tried soft meats I found that fish was the easiest, then a part of a boiled and roasted chicken thigh was next. Red meat was very difficult and I still struggle with it. In my culture we eat a lot of lamb stew meat so I can eat a small amount if the lamb is very lean.

My advice to you is to try pureed vegetables and chicken, turkey, fish first and then move on to the red meat. At least this is a reflection from my experience. Also I would be careful with creamy sauces. The first time I so much as tried light (diet) cream cheese my stomach was so upset.

Good luck! Try lean ground meat first in small amounts and see how it settles.

I found ground meat (hamburger) much easier to handle than chicken. Don't know why.

HydroGirl,

That's a delicious list. I'm so bored with liquids, I'd eat a tree right now.

So what did you do and how did it go?

Be careful with puree veggies because they don't have much Protein but will fill up your small stomach quickly. I eat my meat or Beans first and maybe have a tiny bite of the veggies at the end. If I puree together don't add much veggie to the meat mixture. Will be very filling quickly.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
