Pureed Food Help!

[Jessica _ Stephens 12]

Hey everyone!

I was sleeved on December 14th and I go in this Monday to see if I can move to pureed foods. I want food soooo bad that I can't wait for this stage.. I have even toyed with the idea of trying something pureed today. What kind of foods or cassaroles did and of you Puree during this stage? What was hard about this stage? Did any one start Pureed foods before the 2 weeks?

Thank you!!

I got sleeved on the 14th as well and have been on full liquid/pureed food since I was released home from the hospital. I blended up chicken Alfredo with skim milk in the blender and it's almost like a cream Soup. I've been loving that and mashed potatoes with some cream of mushroom soup (it tastes like gravy) . I also have been mashing up greenbeans and stuffing from xmas dinner. Cottage cheese is also very satisfying of your a big cheese person!

Wow thank you so much for the reply that helps me out so much! I tested low fat cheese and I've tried mashed potatoes and both have worked out great.

I did scrambled eggs and yogurt mainly. I also would eat refried Beans although I had trouble the first time I ate them.

Your welcome Jessica! I think any casseroles would be good blended. And I'm having a hard time with the portions.. I'm so hungry still but I'm only supposed to have 6 tsp which is one and a half medicine cups of the pureed food. For me I don't get full off that. That's my struggle right now but happy I can at least have some food other than my Protein Shakes. I've also started blending frozen fruit (not seeded) in my shakes to help with taste
